Hugel Inc., a leading global medical aesthetics company, said on Monday it hosted the Train-The-Trainer program at the end of August with medical experts from overseas to improve their knowledge and practices of skin rejuvenation.
Some 20 medical practitioners from nine countries, including the US, Australia, Canada, China, Taiwan, Japan, Indonesia, Kazakhstan and Colombia, attended the two-day seminar in Seoul with lectures and cadaveric demonstrations.
The company hosted a cadaveric workshop at the Catholic Institute for Applied Anatomy of the Catholic University of Korea on the first day. The injection of botulinum toxin and hyaluronic acid fillers, which helps facial rejuvenation and a youthful gaze, and theory courses were led by Dr. Kyuho Yi, the director at Maylin Clinic Apgujeong, Soo-Bin Kim, professor at the Department of Anatomy of Yonsei University College of Dentistry and Hyun Jin Park, professor at Department of Anatomy of Daegu Catholic University School of Medicine.
On the second day, the seminar was focused on advanced aesthetic injection techniques. Lectures and live demonstrations for skin rejuvenation were performed by Dr. Ho Sung Choi, the medical director of Piena Aesthetic Clinic, and Dr. Jong Jin Lee, the medical director of DayBeau Clinic.
“The trainees were highly satisfied with the seminar which facilitated sharing injection techniques of Korean medical experts, by using Hugel products, deep knowledge and emerging trends in the medical aesthetics field via a well-structured curriculum.
The training course helps experts from different markets grow as global medical aesthetic industry leaders. Hugel will continue to actively organize academic events in each market to improve medical practices for skin rejuvenation,” a Hugel official said.
Hugel hosted Train-The-Trainer for the second time after the first one held in April in Seoul. The course in August was part of Hugel Expert Leader’s Forum (H.E.L.F.), the global academic forum for medical aesthetic professionals that the company has held every year since 2013.
