Jill Waibel, MD, and Ashish Bhatia, MD, presented the results of two Sebacia studies at the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) 2019 Annual Meeting in October.
The long-term data is from the ongoing EU real-world registry study, which was designed to evaluate acne outcomes in patients that received pre-treatment with common first-line topical acne medications prior to the Sebacia treatment. Patients were prescribed a two- to four-week course of topical retinoid followed by three weekly in-office treatments of Sebacia Microparticles at commercial centers. The study is being conducted at nine nonacademic clinical practices in Europe and to date has enrolled 76 patients. The latest clinical results out to two years demonstrated:

Think of your most valuable employees—the ones who know the ins and outs of your practice, keep your office running smoothly, and are respected and liked by patients and staff. Now suppose those star staffers suddenly quit. How would that affect your day-to-day practice and profits?
Owners of thriving aesthetic practices know that knowledgeable, motivated, long-term employees are key to their success. And it’s not just high turnover rates that can damage a practice. Unhappy, dissatisfied team members can also wreak havoc on your bottom line. “If staff members are not happy, it can... more »

At age six, Julius Few, MD, already knew exactly what he wanted to be when he grew up: a doctor—specifically, a surgeon. His inspiration: Dr. Quincy, a forensic pathologist played by actor Jack Klugman in the 1970s television series Quincy M.E. Of course, Dr. Quincy’s fictitious patients were dead, but that fact escaped the young Julius Few.
“Quincy was a sleuth,” says Dr. Few. “When I saw him operating on people, I thought that was the coolest thing and I knew that was what I wanted to do.”
Today, Dr. Few is the director and founder of The Few Institute for... more »
