Addressing an aged facial appearance by removing facial rhytids is the staples of every aesthetic practice. Every injector needs to understand how to use and how to inject neuromodulators. Safe and good clinical outcomes however can only be achieved with superior anatomic knowledge about the location and the 3-dimensional pathway of facial muscles. In this module, you will see the anatomy of every facial muscle demonstrated via layer-by-layer facial dissections. In addition, the most relevant and up-to-date injection techniques starting from the forehead until the neck will be simulated for an increased and comprehensive understanding relevant for achieving confident and safe aesthetic neuromodulator treatments.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the layered anatomy of the forehead, glabella, periorbital, nasal, midfacial, perioral, and neck anatomic regions.
- Appraise the complexities of the muscular interactions of the forehead, glabella, periorbital, nasal, midfacial, perioral, and neck anatomic regions.
- Compare the dangers and benefits of using a superficial versus a deep technique to address the forehead, glabella, periorbital, nasal, midfacial, perioral, and neck anatomic regions with neuromodulators.
- Evaluate the 3-dimensional anatomy of the forehead, glabella, periorbital, nasal, midfacial, perioral, and neck anatomic regions and select the most efficient and the safest anatomic plane for administering neuromodulators.
- Analyze the concept of the Line of Convergence when targeting the forehead with neuromodulators.
- Distinguish between eyebrow elevator and depressor muscles when utilizing neuromodulator products for minimally invasive facial treatments.
Included Videos
The frontalis muscle is the only eyebrow elevator we have and upon muscular contraction this muscle can cause horizontal forehead lines.
