A one-day, hands-on Botox course for licensed medical professionals. Facial anatomy, patient consultation, a live demonstration, three and a half hours of supervised injecting, complications management — and a certificate of completion at the end of the day.
The muscles of facial expression, danger zones, and how anatomy drives safe placement.
Patient assessment, setting expectations, contraindications and informed consent.
Units, dilution, depth and placement for the most-requested upper-face areas — forehead lines, frown lines (glabella) and crow’s feet.
Watch an expert injector treat a real patient while every decision is explained in real time.
3.5 hours with real product on real patients, with an instructor correcting technique as you work.
Recognizing and managing adverse events, and the safety framework behind responsible practice.
Open to Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Physicians (MD/DO), Physician Assistants and Dentists with a current, valid license to inject within their scope of practice. Each student is responsible for practicing within the scope-of-practice rules of their own license and state.
