Online Course Includes
Overview
Skill Level: AdvancedThis advanced virtual training is part of the Empire PRO curriculum and introduces a powerful, non-surgical approach to one of the most commonly overlooked yet aesthetically critical zones: the aging neck. Presented by Dr. Chris Croley, Chief Medical Officer of Empire Medical Training, this course combines real-world strategies with cutting-edge injectables to target horizontal neck lines, crepey texture, and early laxity.
Participants will master a dual-injection technique using hyaluronic acid microdroplets for immediate superficial line correction and hyperdilute Radiesse for long-term biostimulation. The course also emphasizes patient selection, safety pearls, anatomy review, and technique refinement—making it an essential resource for aesthetic providers looking to expand their injectable offerings and address the often-underserved neck area.
This virtual course is ideal for online providers and Empire On-Demand members seeking advanced aesthetic strategies that translate into practice—and can be followed up with hands-on seminars nationwide for deeper clinical application.
Highlights
- Comprehensive Neck Anatomy Review: Understand structural and cellular contributors to neck aging, including platysma, fat compartments, fibroblast activity, and vascular safety landmarks.
- Dual-Product Strategy: Combine HA microdroplets for immediate line softening with hyperdilute CaHA (Radiesse) for dermal remodeling and collagen stimulation.
- Injection Planning & Plane Precision: Learn optimal dilution, depth, and distribution techniques using needle and 25G cannula across various skin types and age groups.
- Real-World Product Planning: Calculate dilution ratios, session-based dosage, and how to communicate staged treatments and pricing to patients.
- Patient Selection & Consultation Strategy: Identify ideal candidates for non-surgical neck rejuvenation and educate them on the gradual nature of biostimulant-based results.
- Optional Synergy with Jawline Treatment: Learn when and how to pair neck and jawline contouring for improved cervicomental definition.
- Live Demonstration Included: Watch full real-time injection sequences showing product placement, technique adjustment, and post-care best practices.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this course suitable for beginners in aesthetic medicine?
A: No. This Empire PRO course is for experienced injectors who are already proficient in dermal filler and neuromodulator techniques.
Q: Will this course provide certification?
A: You’ll receive a certificate of completion through Empire On-Demand.
Q: Do I need to have Radiesse in my practice to implement this technique?
A: Radiesse (CaHA) is a core component of the technique, used in a hyperdilute form. The course includes guidance on sourcing and preparing it safely and effectively.
Q: Can I use alternative biostimulants instead of Radiesse?
A: While the course focuses on Radiesse, principles of subdermal biostimulant placement apply to other products. However, off-label use and rheology may vary.
Q: How soon will my patients see results?
A: HA effects may be visible immediately. Biostimulant results build gradually over 6–12 weeks, with optimal outcomes after 2–3 treatment sessions.
Q: Does this course include live demonstrations?
A: Yes. A full treatment demonstration is included, showing both HA and hyperdilute Radiesse injections with real-time commentary and technique breakdowns.
