Sector Leading Training
The mid-face master class presented by Dr Michelle Westcott is the most comprehensive course for treating the entire mid-face. Product selection includes Juvéderm with specific training for the 8-Point Lift. Advanced cheek augmentation is provided and is the perfect follow-on course for those that have completed the introductory cheek augmentation master class or foundation course in dermal filler.
Confidence and Competance
As with all A.T.A.I. training, the outcome is to provide the confidence and competence to implement the skills and techniques acquired immediately into your clinic. Three models are provided for each delegate; in our standard 3:1 small class environment, each learner views six procedures and administers three complete procedures. We encourage you to bring one model, and that person is treated for free. We also provide a 1:1 option where you administer to six clients; if you would like to avail of the 1:1 option, please let us know after enrolment.
