The participant will be instructed to perform a detailed pre-treatment assessment and consultation. He will develop knowledge of physiology and pharmacology of the toxins in use and will learn the indications and contraindications of injective treatment. You will receive in-depth knowledge on anatomy, neurophysiology, the musculature of the facial district and the novelties of functional anatomy that make it possible to reduce complications and personalize the treatment. You will learn about the possible off-label uses of botulic toxin. He will perform training on injection techniques in small groups under the supervision of the tutor.
