SUMMARY
In this insightful webinar, experienced plastic surgeons share how their practice adapted BodyTite, FaceTite, and AccuTite procedures to be performed safely and efficiently under local anesthesia. Drawing from experience during the 2008 recession and COVID-era constraints, the presentation focuses on cost-effective, minimally invasive solutions that reduce recovery time and avoid general anesthesia. This approach not only benefits patient safety and satisfaction but also boosts operational efficiency for aesthetic practices.
