Board Certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and Facial Cosmetic Surgeon Montefiore Medical Center New York, New York
Unless fellowship trained, most oral and maxillofacial surgeons do not incorporate facial cosmetic surgery in their practice routinely. Non-surgical and minimally invasive modalities are becoming more popular as patients seek options requiring less downtime. Such examples include newer innovations in skin tightening and fat reduction. These innovations have a much lower risk potential and quicker recovery than traditional invasive surgeries. Review of these modalities and indications will be discussed, providing OMSs a sense of comfort to offering more non-surgical and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures in their practice.

At the conclusion of this presentation, participants should be able to:
Describe different non-surgical and minimally invasive modalities for skin tightening and fat reduction.
Demonstrate the indications and contraindications to such innovative modalities.
