Body Contouring Injectables Training for Physicians

This training caters to MDs, DOs, DMDs, DDS, NPs, RNs and other licensed healthcare professionals. Prerequisites include prior completion of Complete Dermal Filler Training or Advanced Dermal Filler Training, prior experience administering HA dermal fillers, or equivalency documentation.

The course covers hyperdilute Radiesse (calcium hydroxyapatite) and hyperdilute Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid) as bio-stimulant fillers, PDO threads (monofilament and barbed varieties) for smoothing and lifting, and PRP/PRF as biological adjuncts. These are combined using microcannula techniques for comprehensive body contouring across multiple treatment areas.

The course covers treatment of sagging knees (knee lift), buttock lift procedures, neck tightening, upper arm laxity, cellulite treatment (stages I-III), and abdomen and buttock contouring. Each area is addressed with specific product selection, dilution protocols, and injection techniques.

Attendees must have prior completion of Complete Dermal Filler Training or Advanced Dermal Filler Training, prior experience administering HA dermal fillers, or provide equivalency documentation. Pre-course instructional videos on Radiesse, Sculptra, PDO threads, dilution ratios, and injection techniques must be viewed before attendance.

Yes, the course includes didactic morning sessions followed by live model demonstrations in the afternoon with small group breakout sessions. Participants observe and practice the latest body contouring procedures on live models under physician supervision.

A board-certified physician expert will teach this course, with other licensed healthcare professionals assisting where needed. Faculty are practicing physicians who perform these body contouring procedures in their own practices daily.

The course specifically covers cellulite treatment across stages I through III using a combination of PDO threads, Radiesse, and Sculptra delivered with microcannula technique. Combining PRP or PRF with PDO threads is also taught as a method to optimize cellulite treatment results.

Certainly! For those outside the United States, injections on anatomical models are an option; however, you will not be allowed to inject on a live patient. Each state has its own regulations concerning live patient injections.

Injectable body contouring offers permanent fat reduction without surgery, anesthesia, or significant downtime. Results require multiple sessions versus liposuction's single procedure, but the lower patient barrier to entry creates a larger addressable market.

Multi-session protocols generate $2,000-$6,000+ per treatment area with low supply costs. Patients often treat multiple zones, significantly increasing per-patient revenue.

Injectable body contouring requires minimal equipment — injection supplies and the agents themselves. This is dramatically less than CoolSculpting devices ($50K-$150K+) or laser body contouring equipment.

While physicians have the legal authority to perform many procedures, hands-on training under expert supervision dramatically accelerates the learning curve, reduces complication risk, and provides the clinical confidence needed to deliver exceptional patient outcomes from day one. Empire's structured curriculum, live patient practice, and CME accreditation also satisfy credentialing and malpractice insurance requirements that self-study alone cannot fulfill.

Adding procedural services creates new revenue streams that can significantly increase your practice income — aesthetic services alone can add $200K-$500K+ in annual revenue. Beyond finances, offering in-demand procedures improves patient retention, attracts new patient demographics, and positions your practice competitively in a market where patients increasingly expect comprehensive service offerings from their healthcare providers.

Yes. All Empire Medical Training courses for physicians are accredited through the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and provide AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™. These credits satisfy continuing medical education requirements for state license renewal and specialty board Maintenance of Certification (MOC) programs.
