With aging, the combined effects of photodamage, fat atrophy, and facial muscle imbalance cause both wrinkling ad volume loss in the face. This creates a challenging aesthetic problem, which has eluded traditional surgical remedies such as rhytidectomy and mid-facelift. Newer approaches for aesthetic enhancement in the face combine the use of Botulinum Toxin A to rebalance the muscles of facial expression with the use of soft tissue augmentation to restore youthful contour of the face.

Facial fillers are an important adjunct to Botulinum Toxin A therapy and an integral part of an aesthetic practice and can be used to treat nasolabial folds, melomental folds, wrinkles and augmentation of the lips and facial contours.

Have a thorough understanding of facial anatomy including the skeletal structure, vessels, nerves and soft tissue to allow safe and effective aesthetic treatments

Develop an understanding of facial feature ideals including the proportions and dimensions that are determined to create beauty; essentials in creating individual aesthetic treatment plans for patients

Thoroughly comprehend the facial changes that occur due to aging in both female and male patients of all cultures in order to develop an expert sense for optimal aesthetic patient treatment plans

Develop an expert understanding of the pharmacology of the various Botulinum Toxins available for aesthetic and therapeutic use and to develop a working knowledge of these products as well as their applications

Analyze the "best practice" standards for injection techniques for all of the Botulinum Toxins and their dosing equivalents for the treatment of facial muscle rebalancing for youthful expression. This includes the treatment of frown lines, brow furrows, brow elevation, crow's feet, bunny lines, lip lines, nasolabial folds, marionette folds, aging jawline, and aging neck
