Learners and Legacies is the only aesthetic mentorship learning event with both Clinical and Business Learning Tracks
1
Do you have LESS than 3 years of injecting experience OR want to increase your business acumen and practice revenue?
2
Do you want to learn from  injectors who have over 13 years experience OR from leading aesthetic business thought leaders?
3
Do you want to learn about the aesthetics specialty in a small group environment with peers who can become friends?
Then Learners and Legacies is for you!

Learn from Leaders in the Specialty

Many aesthetic meetings can be intimidating, so join your peers in the Clinical or Business Track for a weekend of education and mentorship with some of the nation’s top aesthetic thought leaders in a smaller meeting setting. Ask questions, build a better foundation, and learn from injectors that created the “aesthetic injector” role in the United States or from business experts that have guided practices to success.   The Legacy faculty members are ready to pass the torch to you, the next generation, so come and “Learn From the Past to Create the Future!”

in 2024, there will be TWO  meetings.
      * Charlotte, NC - April 26-28th, 2024
       * Long Beach, CA - October 4-6, 2024

With 48 hours of peer-to-peer learning, you will leave with new friends and mentors from across the country. No fancy clothes, no partying all night, no social media events – just a comfy, supportive environment and great faculty to advance your education in aesthetic medicine.   Check out the Agendas and Faculty pages to learn more about each learning option. Attendance is limited to only 100 “Learners” for each track, so register early and reserve your spot for this unique learning experience.
