The Ponytail Academy Is Coming to Miami, Florida at The Aesthetic MEET!

The Ponytail Academy is excited to partner with the The Aesthetic Society to present this highly specialized cadaver dissection course. Designed for surgeons ready to elevate their expertise, this program offers an intensive immersion into the world-renowned Ponytail Lift™ Technique.

During this in-depth course, participants will engage in expert didactic lectures and hands-on practice, focusing on preservation and sculpting rather than conventional excision.

Key areas of focus include:

  • A review of advanced endoscopic facial rejuvenation principles.

  • Detailed instruction on synchronization—transforming technical movements into choreographed muscle memory.

  • Practical application of endoscopic techniques for the Temple, Brows, and Mid-face Dissection.

  • In-depth sessions on Fat Transfer to the Face.
