What Can I Expect to Observe?
During shadow training days, you get a first-hand look into various procedures and essential practices in cosmetic injections.
This includes the entire consultation process, where trainees learn how to assess a patient’s needs, discuss treatment goals, and evaluate medical records for safety. Understanding patient history is critical to identifying any contraindications or potential risks.
You’ll also witness how treatment plans are developed, tailoring options based on facial anatomy and desired outcomes. You learn the importance of customizing approaches for each patient.
Additionally, shadowing involves observing how to properly take before-and-after photos for documentation and comparison, ensuring accuracy in tracking patient results.
Throughout the day, a diverse range of techniques and injectable products – such as Botox, dermal fillers, and other advanced injectables- are demonstrated, providing hands-on exposure to different treatment modalities.
This experience helps you hone your skills and prepares you for a wide variety of aesthetic treatments.
Who Is Qualified for Shadow Training Days?
Physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and dentists, as well as other licensed medical professionals are eligible to attend. Ideally, you have also completed at least basic training courses in aesthetic injectables.
