I am am physician from Dallas and attended an IAPAM symposium where I was supposed to learn everything in Aesthetics, Botox, Filler, Lasers, IIPL, Weight Loss, and more over a 4 day period.
I think it’s called International Association of Physicians in Aesthetics Medicine. Class was disorganized, pooly setup, the teaching was very sloopy, the instructor was not a specialist and he knew very little about Aesthetics. Some of the testimonials they posted are fake, I researched the testimonials and found that some are new accounts, no pictures, no content, and were recently set up accounts just to make the post. When the instructor was asked basic questions about topics that were not on the slides he was talking about, he was lost. The other physicians in the class looked at each other in awe after they heard some of the ridiculous answers they gave. I am so upset and angry that I spent a great deal of money on tuition and travel and not to mention the time I lost away from my practice. The laser part was promotional for different products-laser- equipment, etc. I have since researched and learned that to properly learn about laser, most training companies I have found devote 1-2 full days. It is that hard to provide a quality training program!
Hands on part was poorly setup with little no supervision. I practiced on my own but watched other doctors standing around doing nothing. Sorry for them. Only the complainers, like myself had any opportunity to actually inject. The sterile techniques was nonexistent and the class set up was dangerous, at best. If you are not outgoing or outspoken, I doubt you will have a chance to even hold a syringe.
Total waste of time and money. I am trying to get a refund but I doubt that will happen. Total Rip Off, Total Scam.
