IAPAM Announces New Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox Training September 2 2-23, 2012 The growth in minimally-invasive,

, less expensive anti-aging treatments such as B otox , dermal fillers, and hCG for weight loss continues to grow in the second ha lf of 2012. From family physicians to internists to obstetricians & gynecologist s, many physicians have decided to add these services to their existing practice s. To meet this need, the IAPAM announces the dates for its next Aesthetic Medic ine Symposium, September 22-23, 2012, in Scottsdale, Arizona. Las Vegas, NV, August 10, 2012 -- As reported in Medical Economics, the increase in interest in the field of aesthetic medicine makes sense when one considers t hat, the bulk of cosmetic procedure clients are the very people who dominate the patient panels of internists and family physicians. Women aged 35 to 50 years ha ve 44% of these procedures, and women between the ages of 51 and 65 have an addi tional 20%." To help physicians add these non-surgical modalities to a practice, and enter th is lucrative cash-based market, the IAPAM offers the industry's leading dermatol ogist-led Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox Training in Scottsdale, Arizon a. At the IAPAM's September 22-23 Symposium (www.iapam.com/aesthetic-medicine-sy mposium-botox-training), physicians will receive everything they need, to start safely and profitably offering Botox and other in-demand aesthetic medicine proc edures right away. "About 5 million nonsurgical cosmetic procedures were performed by aestheticians last year, frequently in a spa setting," says Jeff Russell, executive director of the IAPAM (www.iapam.com). "Many primary care physicians (PCPs) have decided to meet the demand for these services by actively controlling the "med" part of these "medspas." Therefore, the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium is specifically designed by physicians, for physicians, to educate and train on the top cosmetic procedures like: Botox , dermal filler injections, lasers for skin rejuvenation & laser hair removal, medical microdermabrasion, and medical grade chemical peels. The IAPAM 's September 22-23 Symposium has integrated the most important clinical, aesthet ic medicine business, and Botox training ALL into one weekend, including: dedicated instruction from board-certified dermatologists, who are true experts of the skin and cosmetic injectables; hands-on practice in the best injection techniques; Botox training at a multi-million dollar medical practice, not in a hotel room; and an environment that does not allow exhibitors, giving physicians more time for e ducation. Attendees also have the opportunity to: 1. Attend the IAPAM's Aesthetic Practice Start-Up Workshop on Monday, September 24, 2012, a program highlighting the latest information on medspa business devel opment and social media marketing. 2. Attend the IAPAM's hCG Training (iapam.com/physician-weight-loss-training-usi ng-hormones) on Friday, September 21, 2012, which covers hCG (human chorionic go nadotropin) for weight loss, prescription appetite suppressants, ketogenic diet based programs, meal replacements and B6/12 injections. Since 2006, over 1000 physicians (MDs, DOs, NPs, PAs, DDSs etc.) and their staff (RNs, MAs, practice managers, etc.), have attended the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medici ne Symposiums and hCG Training seminars, and been certified by the IAPAM. Also, the year of personalized practice support and the wealth of resources included w

ith one's training, definitely make the IAPAM's programs different than the othe rs. The dates for the next Aesthetic Medicine Symposium are September 22-23, 2012 in Scottsdale, Arizona.
