Botox injections are a lucrative addition to any medical or dental practice or medical spa facility.

Botox certification involves a short, simple class you can take in just a day or two at your convenience.

For medical professionals interested in getting started in Botox injections, the process can be confusing because it varies from state to state.

When a patient comes to you for a lip flip or gummy smile treatment with Botox, sometimes it’s best to turn them away or suggest another kind of treatment. That’s because you could harm the patient’s ability to speak, sip through a straw and more if they have an existing lip dysfunction. Excellent injectables training […]

When Botox patients understand potential outcomes, they’re better prepared to accept them. And they’re more likely to understand that if they want additional treatment because of those outcomes, they’ll have to pay. Part of a good Botox training course is learning how to help patients understand what you’ll pay to fix and what’s an expected […]

Knowing how to reduce scarring using Botox is part of the training that any injector should receive. When a cut is parallel to muscle fiber direction – like a vertical cut on the […]

It’s possible and even easy to make a recessive chin look more prominent without the use of a chin implant or dermal fillers. Enhancing a recessive chin is a remarkable use for Botox that you can learn when you take the right Botox training class – one focused on practical advice and tips to help you become a better injector. If a patient comes to you with a recessive chin, your first thought may be to try fillers. And it’s a good thought. Dermal filler injected against the bone of the chin can make an immediate and dramatic improvement. But there are other ways to make a chin appear stronger and more prominent that also don’t involve surgery, as Dr. Howard Katz explains in this one-minute video. In many recessive chin cases, the patient has a deep labiodental crease. That means the mentalis or chin muscle is hypertonic – simply too tight. For these patients, the bone of the chin is small and the skin is held by this hypertonic muscle tightly against the bone, causing the crease and the small appearance of the chin. By using Botox strategically, it’s possible to relax the deep crease in the chin so that the chin looks larger. This creates the illusion of a stronger, less recessive chin and a more pleasing look for the face and profile as a whole. In a single quick office session, you can create dramatic and satisfying results that will have your patient coming back every few months for repeat treatments. Botox treatments performed by a well-trained injector can successfully achieve this and a wide range of other facial enhancements.

Botox can perform many near-miracles on the face, including reducing the look of a gummy smile so a patient looks more pleasing when displaying positive emotions. As you will learn when you take a good Botox and dermal fillers course, however, not everyone with this issue is a good candidate for treatment. In the case […]

Natural looking lips filler is  available now that can provide superior results to products available in the past. When administered by a well-trained expert injector, lip injections don’t have to provide bulbous lips that look like they have been worked on. Instead, natural lip fillers make it possible to create results that look realistic as they stave off the signs of aging and provide plumpness and symmetry that some patients may have never had before. Here are some frequently asked questions about lip injections and natural lip fillers that you may find useful:

How are lip injections performed?

Lip injections can be performed at a doctor’s or dentist’s office or in a spa environment if allowed by law in the state. Each treatment takes only a few minutes and is administered into dermal layers using a tiny needle. There should be almost no pain, but a topical numbing cream, ice, or other topic anesthesia may be applied before treatment. Following lip injections, sites may be tender, red, or even a bit swollen. Bruising or bumpiness at the injection site is also possible. These side effects are usually mild and resolve quickly.

Do today’s natural looking lips filler provide immediate results?

Patients will see the difference immediately after treatment…
