Aesthetic Ultrasound Training
The Aesthetic Ultrasound Training is designed for aesthetic medicine providers who want to integrate ultrasound into their injectable practice—or sharpen their existing skills—with more precision and safety. You’ll learn how to interpret live imaging, visualize facial anatomy in real time, identify critical structures, and apply those insights to planning and executing safer, more accurate injections. The training covers both foundational concepts and advanced applications, helping you move from theory to confident hands-on execution. This course is ideal for physicians, nurse injectors, physician assistants, and experienced aesthetic practitioners who already perform injectables or are preparing to do so. No prior ultrasound experience is strictly required, though familiarity with facial anatomy and injectables will help you get more out of the day. Pre-training didactic materials (sent via email) set the stage for the in-person session. The in-person component is highly hands-on: expect 6–7 hours of instruction in a small group (limited to 6 participants) to ensure individualized guidance. Live imaging will be used, and you’ll have opportunities to scan real anatomy under supervision. All necessary materials and supplies—such as safety protocols, consent forms, and a workbook for reference—are provided at the start of class. However, injectable products used during training are not included and must be purchased separately (though a discounted rate is available via the academy). Upon successful completion, you’ll earn CE credits (continuing education) to support your professional development. This training will leave you with both the confidence and competence to incorporate ultrasound into your aesthetic practice, elevating safety, accuracy, and patient outcomes.
