Injection Map for BoNT‑A Therapy of the Upper Third of the Face
Injection Map for BoNT‑A Therapy of the Upper Third of the Face
Course overview
In this course you will see how a specialist analyzes the patient's facial expression, identifies areas of muscle hyperactivity, detects asymmetries and constructs an individualized injection map
Special attention is paid to decision-making: why a particular point is chosen, why the dosage is changed, how the risks of complications are minimized and natural facial expression is preserved.
During the course you will learn:
The algorithm for clinical analysis of the upper third of the face
Principles for constructing an individualized injection scheme
Anatomical landmarks for safe practice
Choice of depth, angle and technique of administration
Proper distribution of dosage depending on the muscle contraction strength
Prevention of complications in the forehead, glabellar and periocular areas.
The training develops not just the skill of performing injections, but systematic clinical thinking that makes the result predictable and professionally precise.
