After many years in which few pharmacologic agents were available to treat multiple sclerosis, a dizzying variety of new agents are now available or will soon become available to delay progression of this difficult disease. In general, these new agents suppress or modulate different aspects of the immune system than those affected by traditional injectable disease-modifying therapies.

In this activity, which is conducted in a town hall format, two experts debate the appropriate use of these new agents, while discussants who treat MS patients every day chip in with their lively opinions. You are invited to weigh in with your management strategies in this interactive forum.

This activity was developed for physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who care for patients with multiple sclerosis.

This activity is a video presentation of a recent independent symposium held in conjunction with the American Society for Dermatological Surgery and American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology & Aesthetic Surgery 2009 Annual Meeting. The video includes presentations by experts in the field of facial aesthetics: Dr. Gary Monheit, Dr. Mitchel Goldman, and Dr. Ava Shamban. It examines the scientific and clinical nuances of available neurotoxins in the US and offers participants keen insights into achieving optimal results with these agents, based on an understanding of muscle kinesiology, differences in pharmacokinetics, and injection techniques. Key recommendations and guidance on the use of neurotoxins in aesthetics from an international consensus conference are featured.

This activity was developed for dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and core cosmetic physicians who use neurotoxins in facial cosmetic enhancements.

This activity features Dr. Kent Remington, a renowned expert in aesthetic medicine discussing and demonstrating his Global Approach to facial aesthetics with a focus on volume correction in the perioral regions.
