Attended GAIN Galderma and left with a lot to reflect on.
One of the standout talks was on Sculptra for post-weight loss patients using GLP-1 medications—especially the emerging perspective on maintaining facial fat health, not just replacing volume.
What resonated most was the emphasis on restraint. Knowing when not to inject is just as important as technique.
Also appreciated Dr. Andreas Nikolis’s approach to patients who have outgrown filler-only treatments—it’s a shift many of us are starting to see clinically.
And as always, there’s something invaluable about meeting seasoned injectors like Oriol Rhode—experience really does shape judgment in this field.
