Clinical Hands-on Session

The clinical hands-on practicum is where you have the opportunity to watch a live demonstration and then inject dermal filler on your own patient models. Each practitioner must provide at least one patient model for treatment (and providing multiple patients is highly recommended).

Understanding the source, pathways and overlap of the cranial nerves provides the foundation for understanding myofacial pain and the synergy that exists between aesthetic and therapeutic botulinum toxin therapy.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning in detail the different facial enhancement techniques that exist. I also was happy with the details in the anatomy portion of the course as i definitely needed a solid refresher!

I recently completed the Botox continuum course with PTIFA and found it to be extremely well structured and thoughtfully organized. The progression of the material made it easy to build confidence step by step, and I appreciated how clearly each concept was explained before moving into hands-on application. The course created a supportive learning environment that made me feel comfortable and safe when starting to inject. Overall, it was a very valuable experience that significantly improved both my understanding and my confidence in aesthetic and theraputic treatments.

The Pitifa Level 2 course was excellent—very focused and clinically relevant. The emphasis on marking muscle anatomy in detail really stood out, making concepts much easier to understand and apply. There was a strong attention to detail throughout, and the personalized guidance ensured that every participant received hands-on support. A highly valuable course for anyone looking to refine their skills with precision.

Life is way too short to take bad continuing education courses and I can say that the PTIFA program is great! The pathways to implementation and after course support are well thought out and the course material is covered in depth. This course certainly is the standard of care for therapeutic and aesthetic botox practitioners. Dr Steve Malfair

The organizers of this Ptifa course deserve a 5-star review! They were professional, responsive, and created a seamless learning experience. The focus on upper face markings was exactly what I needed, and the quality of instruction was top-notch. Thank you for a valuable and well-run course.
