Course Overview

Both toxin and basic filler training cover theoretical knowledge and hands-on training on live patient models.

Basic Filler Training

Basic filler training will touch on the importance of patient consultation, setting client expectations, and explaining risks and contraindications.

This portion of the course will also teach you proper injection techniques—from bolus to cross-hatching—and treatment processes that include the latest dermal fillers for lip augmentation, smoothing lines, contouring, and overall rejuvenation of the face.

Toxin Injection Training

You can’t learn to inject neurotoxins without understanding the different concepts of beauty, ideal facial features, facial anatomy, and the muscles responsible for the different facial expressions.

Toxin injection training will cover all of that plus the practical aspect of the course which includes a demonstration of injections on the upper and lower face. There will also be hands-on training to treat frown and forehead lines, crow’s feet, brow lift, platysmal neck bands, chin dimpling, and more.
