FOREHEAD LINES
Complete Lip Artistry
Forehead lines are one of the most common areas that patients ask to be treated. Forehead lines are treated using anti-wrinkle injections. Injections are placed into the forehead muscle (known as 'frontalis') to reduce the appearance of lines. The amount of injections needed depends on how much movement there is in the forehead, the depth of the lines and the width of the forehead.

×FROWN LINES
Frown lines are one of the most visible signs of ageing and skin damage is frown lines. They are also commonly known as Glabellar Lines or 11 lines.
These unwanted creases run between or above the brows and are usually vertical. Frown lines are dynamic and tend to develop over time. Many find these wrinkles not only unattractive but also quite hard to deal with.
These lines appear as a result of normal facial actions and expressions such as squinting at bright lights, expressing confusion, any unpleasant experience or worrying.

CROWS FEET & BROW LIFT
Complete Lip Artistry
Dynamic movement of the Orbicularis Oculi muscle around the eye will result in lines called crows feet. The muscle around the eye is concentric in shape, so when we treat the muscle we can select the parts that we would like to relax. This is one of the most common areas to treat for patients.
A brow Lift can raise the tail of the brow by around 3mm, resulting in an "awake" or wide-eyed appearance. Heaviness in the brow area is common, so understanding this technique is very important to assist our patients with feeling more youthful.

×MASSETER
The largest and most powerful muscle of mastication, this muscle is treated for two main reasons. When the muscle is large, the face can look boxy or wide. Treatment with botox can create a facial slimming appearance that is very aesthetic and appealing to patients.
Functionally, this muscle is related to clenching and grinding of teeth. Treatment will reduce the power, limit damage to the teeth, improve pain thresholds, and improve dental restoration outcomes.

Advanced Private trainingNASAL TIP AND FLARE
Patients find the nostrils flaring to be embarrassing, yet it is so easy to correct. By applying botox in the correct area, the tiny nasal muscles are relaxed.
Similarly as we age, the nasal tip will drop, and this can make the nose look hooked.

Advanced Private trainingGUMMY SMILE
This treatment is life-changing. Once you treat a patient with botox for gummy smile, you will have a patient for life. Your patient can relax when they smile and not guard how hard they smile or laugh. Such an effective treatment when the alternative is usually years of orthodontics and then surgery.

Patients love this treatment for two reasons.
1. They show more upper lip when the orbicularis Oris muscle is relaxed, making the lips look fuller (LIP FLIP)
2. It reduces the lines that appear around the mouth as a result of age (SMOKERS LINES).
Both treatment aims are easy to achieve.

Advanced Private training×VERTICAL NECK LINES, NEFERTITI
Everyone wants a defined and tight jawline. Gravity and the constant contraction of the platysma muscle weakens the jawline, and creates a widening of the lower face.
By treating the vertical neck lines with botox, the so-called Nefertiti lift, your patient will love the confidence that this treatment affords them.

×CHEEKBONE

×UNDEREYE WRINKLES
Skinbooster and profhilo course
Fine lines under the eyes can be treated with skinboosters. Skin Boosters are micro-injections of dermal fillers in the skin. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, they are not injected beneath the skin to volumise or shape the face. Instead, they are very fine dermal fillers that are injected into the skin to hydrate and improve skin quality. We will show you the advantages of this technique over traditional tear trough filler, as the filler we use contains amino acids and vitamins to improve the skin

Advanced Private training×JAWLINE FILLER
Dentists in particular will have patients asking what they can do about the lack of definition in the jawline, because the mouth is in this third of the face. Adding dermal filler to the jawline can be undertaken by doctors, dentists and nurses to improve the tissue draping, sharpen the jawline and improve your patients confidence.

LIP FILLER
The most common filler treatment in the world is lip enhancement. But knowing different techniques is important so that you can adapt the filler for each patient presentation. We will teach you cannula and needle lip enhancement so that you can select the most appropriate treatment. To increase your patient comfort, part of this training will include dental anaesthesia for complete patient and tissue control.

Advanced Private trainingMARIONETTE LINES
Marionette lines occur as the skin draping on the face descends over time. These lines extend from each corner of the mouth (Oral commissure) and create an appearance of sadness or negativity. And this is by far the most upsetting part of the marionette lines for the patient. Using a cannula is the safest technique to treat this area, and our courses will focus on the anatomy and techniques that are most appropriate to treat this area.

Advanced Private trainingMEDIAL CHEEK
As patients age, the deep fat pads located under the orbital rim, in the medial cheek reduce in size by 22% from the age of 20 to 50 years. Being able to address the medial cheek is fundamental to great patient treatment. Whether you are a dentist, medical doctor or nurse, learning how to place medial cheek filler is important. We will show you both cannula and needle placement so you can use the most appropriate technique for your patient.

Advanced Private training×SMILE LINES
Once you treat your patient with Botox, they may have smile lines radiating across their cheek and around their mouth. These cannot be treated with more botox or a functional problem will occur. Instead dentists, nurses and doctors should learn how to use both skinboosters and profhilo to correct the skin condition.

CHIN ENHANCEMENT
Years ago, the only way to correct a weak or deficient chin was through orthodontic treatment and possibly surgery to move the lower jaw forward. However, placing dermal filler in the chin can both elongate and advance the chin forward. By changing the angle of injection, you can select just the one effect to customise the treatment to your patient.

Advanced Private training×HORIZONTAL NECK LINES
The skin of the neck creases more easily as we age as it is deficient in oil glands. This creates horizontal neck lines that are not related to muscle activity, meaning that botox will not work on these. Skinboosters and off-label use of Profhilo can improve the condition and appearance of the skin on the neck in as little as one visit. We will show you how to use a cannula, micro droplet techniques as well as the modified BAP points to improve the condition of the skin on the neck
