Aesthetic Eyelid and Facial Rejuvenation Masters Course 2025

Aesthetic Eyelid and Facial Rejuvenation Masters Course 2025 is organized by David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and will be held from Jul 11 - 12, 2025 at UCLA Stein Eye Institute, Los Angeles, California, United States of America.

Overview:
This course is a tightly focused survey of surgical and non-surgical options for periorbital and facial rejuvenation. The multidisciplinary faculty, renown experts in their fields, focus on practical techniques and conceptual pearls designed to send participants home with tools that they can immediately apply to their own practice.

UCLA Stein Eye Institute, 73-167 CHS, Dissection Laboratory – 7:00 am - 4:30 pm

The dissection workshop focuses on anatomic and surgical pearls of core aesthetic surgical procedures such as upper and lower blepharoplasty, Asian blepharoplasty, forehead lift, mid face lift, and canthoplasty options. The various procedures will be reviewed in step-by-step fashion, utilizing a detailed dissection manual, bullet point surgical videos, and prosections by faculty experts. A limited enrollment will promote close interaction between participants and faculty so that each participant can perform the procedures on cadavers, with faculty guidance.

Due to popular demand, we have once again added a live audio visual feed of the aesthetics dissection course. The course directors, faculty, and guest faculty are “miked up” and seen in high definition performing the dissections from our Friday dissection course in our audio visual suite. The live audio visual suite also receives all the live lectures given in the laboratory. A faculty monitor will be present at all times in the audio visual suite to relate your questions to the “miked up” faculty. Then the same faculty will also come to the audio visual suite to lead further discussion. Both the faculty and the attendees have raved about this experience.

UCLA Stein Eye Institute, RPB Auditorium – 7:15 am - 5:00 pm

The second day of the course will be didactic, covering the nuances of technique that are critical for achieving the elegant results demanded by today’s sophisticated patients. This course brings together innovative experts in aesthetic oculoplastic surgery to share their experiences, techniques, and pearls.

A range of talks will be given covering blepharoplasty, aesthetic ptosis surgery, fat transfer, skin treatments and injectables. Course participants unable to attend the first day of the course are welcome for the second day.
