ASSESSING THE UPPER FACE
FOR BOTULINUM TOXIN-A TREATMENT
Course Introduction
​
Assessments for Botulinum toxin are crucial for consistency and predictability as a cosmetic injector. We want our patients to come back to us without hesitation. Assessing is the same as diagnosing the cause concerning the patient. We will look at the assessment of these upper face muscles as there relate to expression and treatment with pin-point accuracy. We will also look at treatment protocols for the individual patient and optimizing these protocols for consistency and predictability.
​
Course Objective
​
Every patient that walks through the door is unique, therefore we must not rely on a one-size-fits-all approach when providing injection treatments. The proper treatment protocol for each patient is determined by a series of decisions that you as an injector must make. This course is the first step toward building the foundational knowledge necessary to make those decisions. Our patients want predictable and consistent results and as injectors we must know where we are starting in order to understand where we are going. Our mission is to help you cultivate the knowledge and abilities needed to make decisions that will lead you to predictable and consistent patient outcomes.
