Greetings!

As the sun begins to shine and winter turns to spring, your patients will become more concerned with turning back the hands of time. During this busy time, it can be difficult to keep up with the ever-changing world of aesthetic medicine. To help keep you up to date, this issue of the AMET newsletter will report on the new practices/procedures and products being talked about in the aesthetic cosmetic industry.


  • BOTOX Administration - Without the Needle
  • Botulinum Toxin as we know it, is administered with the used of a syringe and needle. According to a recent Italian study, this method may become obsolete. The administration of BOTOX using "pulsed current iontophoresis" showed promising results "opening the door to a possible future of needleless administration".

    A needleness method of administration could be beneficial when performing this procedure on clients who are leery of needles. An additional method of administering BOTOX would be beneficial and enable practitioners to have the ability to choose which method they prefer.

    "Botox without the needle"
  • The versatility of Dermal Fillers
  • Lip augmentation with the use of dermal fillers offer patients the versatility and flexibility in a non-invasive procedure. Women want the flexibility to change their look over time. The look a woman wants today, may not necessarily be the look they want ten years from now. Using dermal fillers for lip augmentation allows this flexibility, while being a quick, relatively painless procedures is a plus as well!

  • Research: Botilinum Toxin as a Topical Treatment
  • Research is being conducted by Revance Therapeutics for the use of Botilinum toxin as a topical treatment. Results are encouraging that Botilinum toxin may be an effective topical medication for the use of hyperhidrosis and other cosmetic uses. Research is still in the preliminary stages, but Medicis sees the benefits of this research and had contributed $20 million for further research.

    According to Dan Browne, President and CEO of Revance, much more research must be conducted. "There's a lot more that we don't know than we do know, but our approach is driven by scientific data, and what we've seen so far is preclinical and clinical trials outside the US. has been very encouraging," says Browne. We look forward to hearing more about this research!
