2-Day Clinical Hands-on Session
Day 1: Hands-on Landmarking & Integrative Cadaver Lab
Practitioners will attend an anatomical cadaver integration session. Dr. Roberts provides an in-depth review of relevant anatomy and relates surfaces features to the underlying musculature and bones.
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.
As Dr. Roberts reviews muscles on the cadaver, practitioners will practice the PTIFAT Anatomic Landmarking Technique on 15+ participants. This integrative portion of the cadaver lab develops confidence prior to the clinical hands-on. The day finishes with a live model demonstration with Dr. Roberts injecting, using the the PTIFAT Anatomic Landmark Template, the PTIFAT Therapeutic & Aesthetic Injection Templates & Techniques.
*Please note, you will be anatomically marking up to 15-20 other practitioners, and those practitioners may be marking you as well. The areas are from the coronal suture to the trapezius to the platysma on the chest (pec major).
Day 2: Clinical Hands-On
Day 2 is an intensive clinical hands-on practicum where you have the opportunity to inject 8+ patient models using the PTIFAT Anatomic Landmark Template, the PTIFAT Therapeutic & Aesthetic Injection Templates & Techniques. The course is typically held at the practice of Drs. Roberts (in Tsawwassen, BC which is ~25 minutes south of Vancouver) or in select clinics in Calgary, Winnipeg, Saskatoon, Toronto, Quebec & Halifax.
The focus of the day is on practical integration of botulinum toxin treatments for both therapeutic and aesthetic indications. Participants gain confidence and clinical competence through real-world experience, applying anatomical knowledge and treatment protocols learned during the lecture portion of the course.
Key Features:
- Supervised Patient Treatment: Each participant will assess and treat 8+ patients, with aesthetic concerns such as frown lines and forehead lines, as well as TMD, bruxism, chronic migraine and headache. View details here.
- Small Group Format: Clinical days are conducted in small groups to ensure a high instructor-to-student ratio (1:5), allowing for personalized feedback and mentorship.
- Treatment Planning & Injection Technique: Emphasis is placed on anatomical landmarks, muscle palpation, dosage planning, safety, and injection technique.
- Real-Time Learning: Instructors provide immediate feedback to help refine your technique and build clinical confidence.
You will have the opportunity to see how a patient is treated from the moment they walk into the clinic, how the necessary medical history and consents are collected on Facetec software, what photographs are required and how they are stored in Facetec, the consultation process, treatment (including markings & injection), billing procedures and booking post-op appointment. Our goal is to provide you with extensive hands-on experience so you are confident leaving and going back to treat patients within your own practice.

Course’s FAQ
Yes, you can register without providing a patient model, however your hands-on clinical experience will be more limited. Each practitioner is required to provide at least one patient model to maximize injection experience during the clinical session. Without a patient model, you may have less opportunity to practice injecting in our supervised environment. We strongly recommend providing a patient from your practice or serving as a patient model yourself to get the full benefit of the Level 2 training experience.
We typically exceed educational requirements laid out by the colleges and exceed the FETAP standard - the industry's highest standard for patient care. Seven of the ten Canadian provinces have adopted the FETAP Standard of Practice, and we're approved educational provider by the American Dental Association Continuing Education Recognition Program (ADA CERP). For medical practitioners, our training aligns with Continuing Medical Education (CME) requirements. However, recognition varies by jurisdiction and profession, so we recommend checking with your specific regulatory body to confirm acceptance of our training within your scope of practice before registering. For details, click here.
A current license and malpractice insurance is required to take training. Practitioners must check-in with their local licensing body to confirm scope and practice guidelines, prior to registering.
Botulinum toxin (aka Botox/Dysport) is a prescription medication. The ability to prescribe and/or provide prescription medications via injection is required. We recommend that you contact your local regulatory college to confirm scope and practice guidelines.
