With the average fee collected for performing liposuction ranging from $2,000 to $6,000, the relative simplicity of adding Liposuction to a medical practice with proper training, and the exceptional results obtained with the newer techniques, it is no wonder physicians of all specialties are learning to add Liposuction procedures to their practice.

Over 550,000 liposuction procedures were performed in 2007 and was the #1 surgical cosmetic procedure performed on patients with total revenues over $1.5B.Liposuction, including Tumescent techniques and Laser Assisted Lipolysis, is expected to increase by over 10% in the next (2) years. Laser Assisted Lipolysis has been proven to add significant benefits by providing non-selective heating of the adipose tissue. Also, it helps overcome the resistance in areas of high fibrosis and enhances the procedure by the thermal destruction of the fat cell membrane (helps to liquefy the fat) as well as tissue tightening that is not possible with tumescent liposuction only. The advent and refinement of tumescent anesthesia and improved techniques and medical protocols utilized make Tumescent Liposuction a practical, safe, and rewarding addition to your aesthetic practice.

This 2-Day Hands-On Course will prepare you to perform both Tumescent Liposuction and Laser Lipolysis procedures using the 1064 wavelength that is the standard for body sculpting in conjunction with liposuction, these procedures are performed safely and effectively in an Office-Based setting.

Attendees will receive thorough training in all areas of Tumescent Anesthesia, while working closely alongside a cosmetic surgeon at the surgery center. Attendees will also receive a thorough knowledge and understanding of all the various aspects associated with Tumescent Liposuction through lectures, didactic presentations and through our 300 page comprehensive manual which will enable the physician to immediately incorporate these procedures within their aesthetic practice.

You will Learn the following:

1. Requirements in creating a Surgical Suite within your Office
   - including licensing, mandatory and recommended equipment, and insurance considerations.
2. Tumescent Solution, Dosages and Concentrations for Various Body Areas/Genders
3. Patient Selection, Consultation, Pre-Operative Evaluation, and Patient Consents
4. Contraindications, Patient Workup, Pre-Operative Tests, Drug Interactions
5. Instrumentation and Equipment needed for Liposuction Procedure.
   - Manual versus Power-Assisted Liposuction.
6. Use of 1064 Wavelength Lasers for skin-tightening of excess skin or laxity.
   - Abdomen Areas, Back Flanks and Hip areas, and Male Breasts.
7. Patient marking, Infiltration Volumes, and Liposuction Techniques.
8. Complications of Tumescent Anesthesia and Liposuction.
9. Pre-Operative, Intra-Operative, and Post-Operative concerns.

Post-Operative Care and Evaluation

• Vasoconstricting blood vessels minimizing edema and bleeding
• Compression Garmenting recommendations.
• Short-Term care including wound management and scarring issues.
• Long-Term care including weight management and possible "touch-ups".

Offer the "Safer" Liposuction solution to your patients using Tumescent Anesthesia and guarantee predictable results for your patient by adding Laser Lipolysis to your procedures. Tumescent Anesthesia minimizes blood loss, is antibacterial, maximizes tissue by infiltrating fluid into fat, and general anesthesia is not needed as the patient is awake and the anesthesia is limited by safe amounts of Lidocaine. This Comprehensive 2-Day Course is designed for you to integrate this procedure into your Aesthetic Practice without the need for additional training. Each day will consist of didactic study and liposuction surgery using tumescent anesthesia in a surgical suite. All course materials including manual, all forms necessary, consents, and vendor information is provided.

What we do differently than other training sites is to stress "sterile" techniques and in creating a "sterile" environment for your office surgical suite. Emphasized, incorporated and specific to the course study is Standard of Care to insure the highest quality and safety for your patients as well as protecting the physician performing these procedures. Physicians without surgical skills are welcome to attend this course but are encouraged to follow a path of certification through additional training and procedures. Empire Medical will present to these attendees a path to certification for and insure acceptance by insurance carriers for this procedure by physicians without formal surgical skills - call for details.

Attendees will participate in Hands On training and demonstration procedures. Typical of Empire's training, you will receive instruction by Board Certified Plastic Surgeons and other Specialists. The training material you receive includes written protocols, medical lists of supplies and solutions needed, along with detailed illustrations describing the techniques you learn. All procedures will be done using the 1064 wavelength laser.
