CGBio organized a symposium called Meet the Masters LATAM 2026 at Hilton Bogota Corferias in Bogota, Colombia from September 3 to 4. The event aimed to present the academic reasoning behind Facetem, a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler, and share practical strategies for its use in actual clinical settings. Key opinion leaders from the Latin American region and 8 international speakers took part in the event, engaging in lively discussions.
The main theme was "Continuity of Regeneration: From Histological Insight to Integrated Rejuvenation." CGBio emphasized linking the physical properties and histological basis of CaHA particles to tailor-made procedure designs for individual patients. On the first day, 7 speakers, including Daniela Lara and Anahi Poloni, discussed clinical selection criteria for CaHA and poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), with a focus on recent trends like combining methods with energy-based devices (EBD).
On the second day, live demonstrations using live patients were conducted. International speakers Yair Karanco showcased procedure approaches based on the patient's condition, sharing clinical insights and safety considerations. Facetem, a biostimulator made of 30% CaHA microparticles and 70% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) gel carrier, was used in the demonstrations.
CGBio views this as a stepping stone to expand its business to the entire Latin American region, holding similar events in major markets. CGBio aims to build trust through practical training courses, moving beyond theoretical education. CEO Yu Hyun-seung highlighted sharing product features and clinical strategies of Facetem based on academic evidence, and plans to strengthen cooperation with partner companies.
