About the Course

Wigmore Medical has partnered with Dr Lauren Jamieson to provide bespoke injectable training on the safe and appropriate use of botulinum toxins and dermal fillers. This is an intensive and educational hands-on day for any aesthetic professional who wants to go beyond the basic toxins and fillers stage and has a particular interest in mastering techniques for treating the upper face. 

This training day explores intermediate and advanced techniques with needle and cannula approaches, with a firm emphasis on facial analysis and topographic anatomy.

Techniques to reduce complications and use of appropriate products will be discussed and demonstrated. This course is designed to facilitate the transition for you to develop intermediate and advanced levels of practice in the upper face. You will benefit from a structured and detailed approach from Dr Lauren Jamieson, exploring concepts of facial anatomy as well as her expert knowledge and experience of a wealth of products and multi-modal treatment options.

Learning is facilitated through demonstration and practical approaches with close supervision and support from the faculty.

Key Learning Objectives

1. An appreciation of the topographical anatomy of the upper face, in relation to toxin and dermal filler treatment strategies
2. Gain insight into the age-related changes of the upper face and develop an advanced awareness of the injectable techniques to correct these areas
3. An advanced awareness of facial analysis in order to formulate appropriate strategies to correct the age-related changes of the upper face, safely and effectively

Anatomical areas to be covered

• Forehead toxin & filler
• Temple

Wigmore Training will make every effort to source suitable models that require treatment in all or most of the above listed anatomical areas.

Product Selection and Hands-on Practice

Our aim is to give you the skills required to optimally assess your own patients. There can be variations on individual anatomy and it’s particularly important, for example, to understand the musculature in the upper face in order to deliver an optimum toxin treatment. This course will help you assess your patients face and recognise key injection points as well as understanding different tissue/muscle depths and injection techniques.

Nowadays there are many dermal filler products on the market, which can make product selection overwhelming, however product selection in relation to patient tissue quality and bone structure are key to delivering a quality treatment in line with patient expectations. This course will help you navigate and simplify these choices and explain why understanding different rheological properties of dermal filler products is of paramount importance in order to best enhance a patient’s appearance in accordance with their skin condition.

We are proud to partner with Croma Pharma UK for this course who have been pioneers in the manufacture of premium grade hyaluronic acid injectables since 1976. Their compact range of versatile dermal facial fillers have an excellent safety profile, with over 50 million syringes used worldwide to date. The company have recently launched a new botulinum toxin as well as a range of polynucleotide skinboosters and more information about Croma and their extensive aesthetics portfolio can be found here: https://at.croma.at/home-en/company

To maximise hands-on time during these busy training sessions, we will send you the course slides prior to the training and request a prompt start on the day, so please be on time. You are encouraged to bring your own models, but please inform us in advance if you are unable to do so, as we will provide one for you. Class size is a maximum of four, to ensure all delegates get enough practice and one-on-one supervision from the trainer.
