**Level 1 Botox Live Patient Training Includes 1 Complimentary 50 unit vial of Neurotoxin (Xeomin/Botox).
Additional botulinum toxin is available for purchase at the course. Each vial can be used for approximately 1-2 patients depending on the treatment needs of the patients.
Choosing an Ideal Candidate for the Botulinum Toxin course:
The treatment areas covered in Level I are horizontal forehead lines, the frown lines between the eyes when the patient makes a “mad” facial expression (the 11’s) and the “crow’s feet” lines at the corner of the eyes. In addition, treatment of the temporalis and masseter muscles help to relieve pain from Bruxism/TMJ.
Additional considerations are as followed:
● The model patient should have mild to moderate static lines- these are the best patients to train on.
● The patient should be healthy, with no history of infections/vaccinations within the last 2 weeks. Their health history should be reviewed to determine if they are in an overall good state of health
● Patients with neurological, autoimmune, and immunological diseases are not ideal candidates, as well as people with long term systemic diseases.
● The patient should not be needle phobic.
● The patient should not have any special events coming up within 2 weeks of treatment due to risk for bruising/swelling. Consider avoiding patients who bruise easily.
We have the right to refuse treatment to any patient.

Please review and share the following list of pre-operative instructions with each of your model patients.
Dermal Filler Pre-Treatment Instructions:
Please have your patients follow the instructions below to minimize the risk for side effects associated with injectables.
- Let us know if you are prone to cold sores- a pre-operative medication may help prevent cold sores after
- If you develop a cold sore, blemish, rash or infection, prior to your appointment, you must reschedule.
- Discontinue Retin-A (2) two days before and (2) two days after
- Avoid anti-inflammatory or blood thinning medications ideally, for a period of two weeks before Medications and supplements such as Aspirin, Vitamin E, Gingko Biloba, St. John’s Wart, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Advil, Aleve, Vioxx, and other NSAIDS are all blood thinning and can increase the risk of bruising/swelling after injections.
- Schedule botulinum Toxin appointment at least 2 weeks before a special event e., wedding, vacation, etc. The chances for bruising are high with injectables and therefore we would want to ensure that all bruising has healed before their event.
Every model patient must sign an informed consent prior to treatment. Consents will be provided at each course and there will be no exceptions.
We have the right to refuse treatment to any patient.
