Advanced course for neurotoxin (Botulinum Toxin A) applications in aesthetic medicine

Learning Objectives

  • Master advanced injection techniques for the forehead, peri-orbital, nasal, and neck areas.
  • Understand intricate muscle interactions and anatomical variations to minimize complications.
  • Apply evidence-based protocols for nuanced treatments (e.g., micro-dosing, combination therapies).
  • Develop skills to manage adverse events and tailor treatments to patient-specific anatomy.

Course Structure

Section 1: Forehead Area

  1. Micro-Neurotoxin Techniques for Frontalis
    • Definition and rationale for micro-dosing vs. standard dosing.
    • Patient selection criteria for subtle vs. dramatic results.
  2. Anatomy Deep Dive
    • Frontalis muscle architecture and its interplay with the glabellar complex (procerus, corrugators, depressor supercilii).
    • Septal structures and vascular anatomy (supratrochlear/
      supraorbital arteries) to avoid bruising.
  3. Hands-On Techniques
    • Horizontal vs. vertical injection patterns.
    • Avoiding brow ptosis and “frozen” appearance.

Section 2: Peri-Orbital Area

  1. Orbicularis Oculi (OO) Anatomy
    • Differentiation of orbital (forceful closure) vs. palpebral (gentle closure) OO fibers.
    • Relationships with brow elevators (frontalis) and depressors (corrugators).
  2. Advanced Injection Strategies
    • Crow’s feet: Layered approaches for dynamic vs. static wrinkles.
    • Brow elevation: Targeting the lateral OO and tail of the brow.
    • Avoiding complications: Ectropion, diplopia, and asymmetric smile.
  3. Case Studies
    • Managing post-treatment edema and addressing under/over-correction.

Section 3: Nasal Area

  1. Muscle Anatomy
    • Intrinsic muscles (nasalis, depressor septi) vs. extrinsic muscles (levator labii superioris alaeque nasi).
    • Impact of muscle contractions on nasal aesthetics (e.g., nostril flaring).
  2. Advanced Treatments
    • Bunny Lines: Targeting the transverse nasalis while sparing the levators.
    • Nostril Dilatation Correction: Balancing depressor septi and nasalis injections.
  3. Risk Mitigation
    • Avoiding lip ptosis or nasal valve collapse.

Section 4: Neck Area

  1. Platysma Anatomy and Dynamics
    • Platysmal bands, decussation patterns, and interactions with mentalis muscle.
    • Cervical retaining ligaments and their clinical implications.
  2. Nefertiti Lift Modifications
    • Enhancing jawline definition by targeting platysma-cervical fascia junctions.
    • Adjusting doses for male vs. female patients.
  3. Complication Management
    • Dysphagia prevention: Safe zones and depth guidelines.
    • Addressing weak neckline or paradoxical banding.
  • 15 JULY 2025

Filler Injection Course

Course Structure

1. Introduction & Pre-Procedure Essentials

  • Safety protocols: Hygiene, emergency preparedness, and legal/ethical considerations.
  • Patient assessment: Anatomy review, skin type analysis, and psychological evaluation.
  • Documentation: Informed consent, pre/post-procedure photography, and marking techniques.

2. Introduction & Pre-Procedure Essentials

Mechanisms, Indications, and Product Selection:

  • Hyaluronic Acid (HA): Rheology, cross-linking, and reversible vs. non-reversible fillers.
  • Poly-Lactic Acid (PLLA/PDLLA): Biostimulation principles, longevity, and layering techniques.
  • Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA), Polycaprolactone (PCL): Structural support and collagen induction.
  • Emerging options: PMMA, HAAP, and combination therapies (e.g., fillers + toxins).

3. advanced techniques

Anatomic Zones & Injection Strategies (Demonstration + Theory):

  1. Forehead: Supraperiosteal vs. subcutaneous approaches; avoiding vascular compromise.
  2. Temporal Zone: Volumization for hollowing; cannula use and safety margins.
  3. Tear Trough: Layering techniques, blending with midface, and avoiding Tyndall effect.
  4. Nasolabial Fold: Dynamic vs. static folds; differential product selection.
  5. Cheek/Pre-Auricular Area: 3D volumization, lifting effects, and avoiding overcorrection.
  6. Chin: Projection vs. contouring; balancing with jawline harmonization.

4. Complications: Prevention & Management

  1. Early Recognition:
    Vascular occlusion (blanching, pain), hypersensitivity, nodules, and infection.
  2. Emergency Protocols:
    Hyaluronidase administration, aspiration techniques, and escalation pathways.
  3. Case Simulations: Group exercises on complication scenarios.

5. OBSERVER practical session
