2-Day Clinical Hands-on Session
Day 2 is an advanced clinical hands-on practicum 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 attended this course many years ago, and again last weekend. It was fantastic in the past, and the content has only evolved and improved. I have extensive injecting experience, but I still gained applicable and beneficial new knowledge. For an aspiring injector, or one who has been doing it for years, this course is the North American gold standard, and I would highly recommend it.”
