Advanced Filler Masterclass
Advance your skills with full facial assessment, multiple lip filler techniques and a safe approach to contouring the cheeks, chin and jawline.
Advance your skills as an Aesthetic Practitioner and offer a more comprehensive service to your patients
This course is aimed at regulated Heathcare Professionals (registered Doctors, Dentists, Dental Technicians, Dental Hygienists, Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Pharmacists) who have completed their Foundations of Dermal Filler training with us or elsewhere. Evidence of this will be required. We would expect the Practitioner to have performed at least 20 dermal filler procedures and to be comfortable with the anatomy and main injection techniques. There are multiple benefits to training on this advanced course:
Learning how to perform an advanced facial assessment helps address the root cause of the patient’s concerns and logically plan treatment(s). Results in turn can be far more rewarding than treating superficial lines only. Objectively restoring beauty requires understanding of ageing and how this influences facial proportions.
Armed with several lip filler techniques, one can tackle more challenging cases and flexibly cater to a variety of concerns. Techniques can also be combined to achieve better results.
Cheek filler is an excellent restorative & beautifying treatment that can improve facial proportion as well as the under-eye area, the nasolabial area and the jawline to varying degrees.
Having the skill to treat the cheeks, as well as jawline and chin, allows you not only to restore volume, but to also tighten problematic areas like the jowls and address facial proportions directly, bringing harmony and objective beauty to the face.
Lip and facial contouring (cheeks, chin, jawline) procedures are very popular and would be a rewarding addition to your clinical service if performed well. Ideally an aesthetic practitioner should have the skill to treat all facial areas, carving a treatment plan based on the patient’s concern(s).
What does this course cover?
This is a 1-day course and is delivered by experienced Aesthetic Practitioners (Doctors) with Medical and Medical Research backgrounds. The course recaps on key anatomical and safety considerations, then covers advanced aesthetic assessment, multiple lip injection techniques and the approach to the cheeks, chin and jawline. The course is heavily ‘hands-on’ and all practitioners should have completed Foundation Training. You will need to provide 1-2 models consenting to the treatments and photography. Training is performed in focused, small groups for maximal benefit. To achieve the course aims, the course contains three components:

Will my training be recognised by leading aesthetics insurance providers?
All our course are fully recognised and insured by Cosmetic Insure, a leading aesthetics insurance provider in the UK.

The entire training day takes place at the dedicated Hourglass Aesthetics Training Academy on 43 Schoolhill, Aberdeen, AB10 1JT.
What does the course cost?
The full cost of the course is £950 (no added charges). The programme is excellent value for money given the comprehensive content and intensive hands-on practical exposure in the afternoon. Our trainee group size on advanced courses is small with trainee to trainer ratio of 2:1 or 3:1 max. We do not charge models you provide on this course, and any charge you incur upon them is at your discretion.
What if I feel I need more training or supervision?
That’s not a problem. Recognising the limits of your competency is an important professional attribute. We want to support you throughout your early aesthetics career and we want to produce confident, safe practitioners. We can offer further clinical supervision while you practice your advanced filler procedures. Please see our Professional Services for more information.
