Treatment areas covered
Typically, the three main treatment areas for Botulinum Toxin are the Glabella (frown lines between the eyes), the forehead and Crow’s feet. You will learn these treatments as well as brow lift and hyperhidrosis (treatment for excessive sweating). Each area has its own specific injection patterns. During training, you will learn these patterns along with injection techniques which you will practice, under supervision, on a live model giving you as realistic a ‘clinic’ experience as possible. Filler treatment techniques will include Lip augmentation, nasolabial, marionettes and cheeks, using a needle.
Which products will be used?
Bocouture is a Botulinum Toxin which helps to relax muscles, by initially blocking the nerve impulses. Bocouture is injected into the muscle area to relax muscles by preventing constant contraction. This effect is reversible and temporary and requires further treatments to maintain its longevity, making it a safe option for patients who choose this medicine.
REVOLAX Fine, Deep and SubQ is the UK’s Number 1 Dermal Filler. Made of the highest purity of Hyaluronic Acid, the non-animal based crosslinked dermal filler is a completely natural substance that synchronises with skin tissue, in order to create a natural-looking result. Working to plump, refresh and rejuvenate, REVOLAX dermal fillers have been praised by many medical professionals for its unique technology and longevity.
