about this course

theoretical content

The rheological properties of injectable soft tissue filler products are highlighted and depending on clinical needs in specific facial areas, a specific product is chosen. The theoretical background of working with hyaluronic acid (HA) as well as biostimulatory products that boost the patient’s own collagen production is offered through an online study program. 

Filler injections are among the most frequently performed aesthetic procedures worldwide, yet complications can occur even in expert hands. This Master Course equips healthcare providers with the knowledge and hands-on experience needed to recognize, prevent, and manage complications effectively.

Key features:
- Online discourses and algorithms for complication management.
- Hands-on practice with mannequin models.
- Evidence-based approaches to vascular, inflammatory, infectious, and allergic complications

Included in this master course is:

  • discourses by Dr. Jani van Loghem & Dr. Philippe Snozzi
  • ebook ‘Soft Tissue Filler Complications: Prevention and Management’ by Dr. Jani van Loghem & Dr. Philippe Snozzi
  • extensive selection of instruction videos
  • online examinations to test your knowledge

personalized hands-on training

The practical program will be practiced in small break out groups. It spans three days and includes:
Day 1: Hands-on practice with mannequins. Delegates practice both acute and late-onset filler complications in small breakout groups. Practical training includes: acute ischemia scenarios (peripheral and retinal) and management of edema, nodules, discoloration, infections, and allergic reactions.
Day 2: Live patient treatments with HA and biostimulatory products. Each delegate will inject multiple indications per day under guidance of our expert faculty in low- to high-risk areas, depending on their personal desires of skills development.

course level: advanced

This course is intended for physicians with significant experience in aesthetic injectable procedures. If licensed in your country to independently perform these procedures, in some cases (prescribing) nurses or dentists could also apply.
Please note: in The Netherlands, nurses and dentists are not allowed to perform these procedures and will not be permitted to enter the course.

you’ll have full access to the online learning materials of this course for 12 months!

Plenty of time to revisit, refresh, and refine. We revise our content regularly to reflect current standards.

course overview

theoretical content

The theoretical training is delivered through our digital platform under the section Online Learning Materials. It consists of detailed instruction videos that cover the assessment of the facial aging process and advanced injection techniques. Scientific presentations cover prevention and management of vascular complications and anatomical based injection techniques from low to very high risk facial indications. 
Our textbook ‘Soft Tissue Filler Complications: Prevention and Management’ is the theoretical basis of this Master Course and the ebook version is available within the online learning material. Participants who wish to test their knowledge can take an optional online multiple-choice examination.
