Foundation Botox Course
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the safe and effective use of botulinum toxin (Botox) for aesthetic treatments. Participants will learn about facial anatomy, the science behind Botox, its applications for wrinkles and lines, patient assessment, injection techniques, and managing complications.
Botox
Botox is a brand name for botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It is used in both medical and cosmetic treatments to temporarily relax muscles by blocking nerve signals, reducing wrinkles, and treating conditions like migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.
In aesthetic medicine, Botox is commonly injected into facial muscles to smooth out dynamic wrinkles such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. The effects typically last 3 to 6 months before muscle activity gradually returns.
Botox
-
Injection: Botox is injected in small doses into specific muscles using a fine needle.
-
Blocking Nerve Signals: The botulinum toxin binds to nerve endings, preventing the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction.
-
Muscle Relaxation: Without acetylcholine, the treated muscles stay relaxed, reducing wrinkles and preventing deepening of expression lines.
-
Gradual Effect: Results start appearing within 3-5 days, with full effects visible in 10-14 days.
-
Temporary Action: Over time, the nerve endings regenerate, restoring muscle function after 3-6 months, requiring repeat treatments for maintenance.
This mechanism makes Botox effective for cosmetic use (wrinkle reduction) and medical treatments like chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.
-
-
Wrinkle Reduction: Targets dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions, such as:
-
Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
-
Frown lines (between the eyebrows, also called "11s")
-
Forehead lines
-
-
Lip Flip: Enhances the appearance of the lips by relaxing muscles around the mouth.
-
Jawline Slimming: Reduces a bulky jawline by relaxing the masseter muscles.
-
Eyebrow Lift: Provides a subtle lift by relaxing the muscles that pull the brows downward.
-
By the end of the course, students should feel confident in their ability to assess, plan, and safely administer Botox treatments. They should also understand how to manage any risks or complications associated with the procedures.
-
Theoretical Learning: Didactic sessions covering anatomy, pharmacology, and treatment protocols.
-

Advanced Botox treatments include upper and lower face applications, such as refining jawlines, lifting brows, correcting lip asymmetry, and addressing hyperhidrosis. It is also used for medical treatments, including migraine management and excessive sweating reduction. These advanced techniques require a detailed assessment of patient anatomy and customised dosing to achieve optimal outcomes.
Participants will master advanced Botox applications, gaining a deep understanding of injection techniques for non-surgical facelifts, jawline contouring, and facial asymmetry correction. The course also covers safety protocols, dosage precision, and patient-specific treatment plans to ensure the best possible results.
The Advanced Botox Course covers complex injection techniques, facial assessment, patient consultation, risk management, and complication handling. Practical training includes hands-on experience treating live models under expert supervision, ensuring participants develop precision and confidence in their skills.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal Fillers are injectable substances designed to restore lost volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. Most fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps retain moisture and keep the skin firm. They are commonly used to add definition to the cheeks, lips, jawline, and under-eye area. Unlike Botox, which relaxes muscles, dermal fillers work by physically adding volume, giving the face a plumper and more youthful appearance.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injected beneath the skin to lift, plump, and contour specific areas. Hyaluronic acid fillers attract water molecules, improving skin hydration and elasticity. Other types of fillers, such as calcium hydroxylapatite and poly-L-lactic acid, stimulate collagen production for longer-lasting results. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and provides immediate effects. Results typically last between six to eighteen months, depending on the type of filler used and individual metabolism.
There are different types of dermal fillers designed for specific purposes. Lip fillers enhance volume and shape, cheek fillers restore facial definition, jawline fillers create contour and structure, and tear trough fillers reduce the appearance of under-eye hollows. Some fillers are used for non-surgical rhinoplasty to refine the nose’s shape. Each type of filler is tailored to suit the patient's facial structure and desired outcome.
The foundation Dermal Fillers course provides a comprehensive introduction to injectable treatments. The course covers facial anatomy, different types of fillers, safe injection techniques, patient consultation, contraindications, and how to manage complications. Participants receive practical training on live models under expert supervision to ensure they gain hands-on experience.

PRP
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a regenerative therapy that uses a patient’s own blood to promote healing and tissue rejuvenation. It is widely used in aesthetics to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and stimulate hair growth. PRP is also utilised in sports medicine and orthopaedics to accelerate the healing of injuries. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of blood, processing it in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, and injecting it into targeted areas. PRP is a natural treatment with minimal risk since it uses the body’s own biological material.
PRP
PRP works by harnessing the body’s natural healing properties. Platelets contain growth factors that stimulate collagen production, tissue regeneration, and cell repair. When injected into the skin or scalp, PRP enhances elasticity, reduces scars, and strengthens hair follicles. The process involves drawing blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and injecting the plasma into the treatment area. Results develop gradually and last several months with proper care.

PRP is used for facial rejuvenation (vampire facials), hair restoration, and skin healing. It is often combined with microneedling for enhanced collagen stimulation. In medical applications, PRP is used for joint pain, tendon injuries, and wound healing. Treatment plans vary depending on patient needs.
