An unforgettable evening of live injectables, education, and celebration — for the practice owners, practitioners, and clinicians entering the field who are shaping aesthetic medicine across the country.
Limited Seats AvailableOnce a year, Empire brings together the people shaping aesthetic medicine. The room is intentionally small, the conversations unguarded, and the relationships outlast the evening.
New to the field? There’s no better front-row introduction to where aesthetic medicine is headed.
Performed live on a model by Dr. Chris Croley, Maritza Mejia, FNP & Dr. Ernai Hernandez — Empire’s master injectors and physician educators. Cocktails and open networking throughout.

Every demonstration is led by a board-certified physician — not an influencer, not a sales rep. Empire’s faculty are the master injectors and educators who have trained more than 175,000 medical professionals, and they teach these exact techniques at Empire’s certification workshops every month of the year.
Board-certified in Anesthesiology & Critical Care and Empire’s Director of Aesthetics. More than 20 years as a multi-specialty aesthetic physician, and a national key opinion leader who develops Empire’s flagship injectable curricula.

The trending topics redefining aesthetic practice in 2026 — and the results you’ll take straight back to your clinic. Two live demonstrations, with AI and profit-growth strategies woven throughout, presented by Empire faculty and the industry leaders shipping them.
Master volume restoration for the GLP-1 / Ozempic face — aesthetics’ fastest-growing patient. Walk away ready to add a high-demand, high-value service to your menu.
See advanced jawline definition and facial masculinization performed live on a model. Capture the booming male-aesthetics market with premium procedures you can price and deliver.
Put practical AI to work across consultations, content, scheduling, and follow-up — reclaim hours every week and scale your practice without adding overhead.
Real pricing and packaging strategies that grow a more valuable practice — moving a patient from a single visit into a long-term, higher-value treatment plan.
Biostimulators, exosomes, PDRN, and PDO threads — the layered 2026 protocols, and the premium tier patients are asking to pay for.
An evening with the practice owners and industry voices most likely to change what you do next year — relationships that compound long after the night ends.
Empire didn't just teach me a technique — they handed me an entire framework for how to run an aesthetic practice. Two years later my injectables business is four times what it was.
The room they put together is the real value. I left a single Empire weekend with three referral relationships and a new partner. The training itself was just the beginning.
I've taken courses with every major aesthetic training group. Empire is the only one that treats you like a colleague, not a student — and the difference shows in what you actually take home.
Same evening, same room. The Member seat adds Empire’s Peptide Therapy Training Course — our thank-you to valued Empire members. Lock in early-bird rates before they rise.
