Dr. Eskenazi will co-instruct a pre-symposium injection masterclass on November 5
The five-hour Anatomy & Injection Masterclass runs from 2:00 to 7:00 p.m. and is led by Professor Sebastian Cotofana, MD, PhD, PhD. The course combines cadaver dissections with live patient injection demonstrations and real-time facial ultrasound, covering neurotoxin treatment of the forehead, glabella and crow's feet, and filler treatment of the temples, tear troughs, cheeks, nasolabial folds, lips, chin and jawline. Dr. Eskenazi will perform live injections alongside co-instructors Terry Alford, DMD; Lanna Cheuck, DO; Barbara Brandt, APRN; Jill Campbell, MSN, FNP-C, CANS; and Shanna Concepcion, RN, CANS.
Dr. Eskenazi delivers a MainStage lecture on full-face sequencing on November 7
His talk, titled "Sequencing the Full Face — What You Can Undo, and What You Can't," opens the Saturday morning session on Combination Therapies and Regenerative Aesthetics at 8:00 a.m. The lecture addresses the order in which full-face treatments should be planned and performed, distinguishing reversible choices from permanent ones for injectors building comprehensive treatment plans.
The symposium draws physicians, nurses and dentists practicing facial aesthetics from across the country and abroad
The 2026 program pairs morning lectures and live patient demonstrations with small-group afternoon workshops on injection safety, complication management, neurotoxin and filler techniques, and emerging aesthetic technologies.
Dr. Eskenazi's teaching record includes nearly 100 cadaver labs and a national provider education tour
He headlined the Evolus "Evolution Tour" in 2023, educating more than 1,000 aesthetic providers across 65 cities and 30 states. He also consulted on filler complications for the launch of Evolus' Evolysse filler line, developing protocols centered on facial vascular anatomy and adverse event management.
