Comprehensive Dermal Filler Training
Our Dermal Filler Training Workshop is a full one-day course approved by the AMA for 8 hours AMA PRA Category 1 CME™ and 8 contact hours of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation. The focus of this certification course is strictly on dermal fillers.
Like other Empire workshops, this is a comprehensive, hands-on training program using live patient models, under the direct supervision of some of the best board-certified aesthetic physician instructors (plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and multi-specialty trained aesthetic specialists) practicing in the U.S.
By receiving the highest-level training on FDA-approved HA and non-HA fillers from leading manufacturers that produce products such as Juvéderm® Ultra, Restylane®, Radiesse®, Sculptra®, Bellafill®, and other dermal fillers, participants will gain the proficiency necessary to pass the onsite testing and certification.
The dermal filler market continues to grow every year and is now two times greater than botulinum toxin sales worldwide. With over 94% of the soft dermal filler market consisting of hyaluronic acid products (HA), adding these safe, simple-to-perform injection procedures can benefit any healthcare professional and their practice.
With over 23 years of experience in dermal filler training and a record of successfully graduating over 150,000 medical professionals, our Comprehensive Dermal Filler Workshops will give you everything you are looking for in a CME workshop.
In this training program, you will:
- Learn the differences between available dermal fillers to select the best ones for your private practice.
- Evaluate dermal fillers based on their “G-PRIME” to determine the appropriate product choice and placement of an HA dermal filler for specific patient needs and indications.
- Receive intensive didactic material in the morning, with ample time in the afternoon to practice injections on volunteers until you are comfortable with the technique. You will be closely supervised and instructed during this time.
