Why is it important?
Using neuromodulators for recontouring and redraping of the face and neck is a novel and effective approach for aesthetic practitioners.
Perspectives
Close to 50% of my patient's dosage of neuromodulator treatment comes from the lower face and neck. Yet as I was out training practitioners around the country, I found a lot of aesthetic injectors have never treated anything below the Orbicularis Oculi with neuromodulators. This instigated a need for more comprehensive training on the subject, and hence this article was born.
