WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

Comprehensive PDO Threads training course on the basic “Mesh” and “Lyft” techniques.

These new minimally invasive procedures consist of using absorbable PDO (Polydioxanone) threads to achieve safe, in-office tightening and repositioning of the skin. The procedure requires no surgical skills and delivers great results with virtually no complications!

The threads are placed in the superficial tissues and can be used anywhere on the face and body. The procedure is performed in-office without any anesthesia. The treated area then mounts a controlled inflammatory response to the threads to provide the desired effect.

The focus of our PDO Threads training course is on hands-on injections so that upon completion each participant will have the necessary skills to fully master both MESH and LYFT injection techniques.

Each participant will have enough time to try the various kind of threads (Smooth, Twist, Barbs) on one or more areas (depending on time). Participants must bring their own model for the injections. PDO threads which to be used during training will be supplied by AIAM.

WHAT YOU WILL GET:

• Start the day with complimentary catered breakfast
• 30 Min lecture/didactic on PDO Threads
• 1 hour of 1-on-1 hands-on practice
• Observation of peers’ hands-on practice
• Catered lunch ( If Full Class)
• Comprehensive course workbook detailing theory and guidelines
• Certification of completion

Prerequisite: Must have completed basic training in PDO threads to participate in the course.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

The innovative technique of simultaneously combining injectable fillers, polydioxanone (PDO)
threads and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) for optimal rejuvenation of the face.

PDO (polydioxanone) Threads: Using the same threads used in cardiothoracic surgeries, PDO threads are absorbed via hydrolysis in just 4-6 months. Placed in the superficial tissue of the face or body, PDO threads aim to achieve safe, in-office tightening and repositioning of the skin with no surgical skills required. Achieve great results with no recorded complications!

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) with Microneedling: Used in combination with micro-needling or injected as a natural filler (or mixed with a filler); the Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) technique uses the most advanced Blood Concentrate technology to generate a complex Fibrin Matrix rich in Platelets, Leukocytes and Mesenchymal stem cells for tissue regeneration purposes (skin rejuvenation, tissue augmentation, hair regrowth, etc). 

This 100% autologous rejuvenation technique is a substantial progress from the well-established PRP (or Platelet-Rich Plasma) technique as it enables to harvest more cells, in higher concentration and better vitality; allowing for a longer and more gradual release of growth factors (constant release of growth factors for 10-12 days with PRF versus only a few minutes with PRP).

Blunt microcannulas for fillers’ injections: Much safer than using classic sharp needles for fillers’ injections, microcannulas do not cut through vessels and tissues, but rather navigate smoothly through the dermis and subcutaneous layers. Due to its blunt tip and flexibility, the microcannula allows for a virtually painless and complication-free procedure.

All medical supplies and materials will be provided by AIAM. Participants must bring their own FDA approved fillers and one model for injections.

WHAT YOU WILL GET:

• Start the day with a complimentary catered breakfast
• 30 minute lecture/didactic on all three techniques
• 1 hour of 1-on-1 hands-on practice
• Observation of peers’ hands-on practice

FULL COURSE DETAILS

1. MOLDED TRAINING
A ‘molded’ PDO Threads training course on advanced PDO Threads techniques. The molded PDO Threads training will be provided for advanced injectors only, due to the learning curve associated with the ‘sterility & application’ process.

This new and minimally invasive molded PDO Threads procedure consists of using absorbable PDO (Polydioxanone) Threads to achieve safe, in-office treatments for your patients. The procedure requires no surgical skills and delivers great results with virtually no complications! The procedure is performed in-office and with little (or no) anesthesia.

The focus of our PDO Threads training course is for “hands-on” injections (w/ the use of reverse vectoring techniques); upon completion, each participant will have the necessary skills to fully master (molded) PDO Threads techniques.

Each participant will have enough time to try 2 types of threads (Molded & Smooth) on one or more areas (depending on the timeframe). All the PDO Threads used during training will be supplied by AIAM. (Participants must bring their own model for the hands-on sessions!)

SPECIFIED TRAINING APPARATUS:

• Smooth (Blunt) 29G x 1”
• Molded (Blunt) 18G x 4”
• Microcannula (Blunt) 22G x 2 ¾”
• Microcannula (Blunt) 25G x 1.5”

WHY ARE CANNULAS BETTER THAN A SHARP NEEDLE?
Virtually no bruising.
Considerably less pain.
Minimal downtime.
Single point of entry for wider coverage.
Stimulates new collagen production.
Decreasing the risk of intravascular injection, necrosis, blindness, or ophthalmoplegia.

WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS (& USAGE POINTS) OF PDO THREADS IN AESTHETICS?
Softening Wrinkles.
Collagenesis.
Revitalization.
Repositioning & Lifting.
Bio-stimulation.
Marionette Lines.
Cheek Lift.
Jawline.
Neck/Submental.

2. PRF TRAINING
How to inject dermal fillers through a blunt microcannula (as opposed to using a sharp needle). How to harvest PRF and use it as a 100% natural dermal filler (or mixed with dermal fillers) and reinject the solution through a blunt microcannula. Microneedle the solution on the face and/or hair for tissue rejuvenation purposes (optional).

WHAT IS PRF?
The Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) technique uses the most advanced Blood Concentrate technology to generate a complex Fibrin Matrix rich in Platelets, Leukocytes, and Mesenchymal stem cells for tissue regeneration purposes (skin rejuvenation, tissue augmentation, hair regrowth, etc.).

This 100% autologous rejuvenation technique is a substantial progress from the well-established PRP (or Platelet-Rich Plasma) technique as it enables the harvest of more cells, in higher concentration and better vitality; allowing for a longer and more gradual release of growth factors (constant release of growth factors for 10-12 days with PRF versus only a few minutes with PRP).

PLATELET RICH FIBRIN (GEL) is specifically defined as the combination of Platelet Rich Fibrin + Self-Assembled ALBUMIN. i.e., heated Plasma Gel + PRF Concentrate at a 2:1 ratio. Self-Assembled ALBUMIN are the most abundant proteins in the blood, constituting nearly 60% of blood plasma proteins. The mixture of the Albumin-Rich Plasma and the growth factors of PRF create an organic gel concentrate that promotes ‘skin rejuvenation & volumizing’.

SPECIFIED TRAINING APPARATUS:

• PRF MiniSPIN Centrifuge.
• PRF COOL Device.
• PRF HEAT Device.
• PRF Gel Kit.
• PRF Syringes (Supplementary).

GEL TIDBITS & AFFIRMATIONS:

• PRF GEL is easy to produce, it’s cost-effective and it’s minimally invasive.
• PRF GEL enables enhanced ‘growth factors’ restoration and bio-stimulation.
• PRF GEL is 100% autologous and all-natural.
• PRF GEL is the latest and evolutionary application for all-natural injectables.
• PRF GEL may be combined with HA Fillers, Toxins, Devices, and Biostimulators.
• PRF GEL is adaptably consistent, so the application is very versatile – offering groundbreaking new benefits and flexibility.

WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS OF PRF IN AESTHETICS?
Hair loss.
Dark circles.
Acne scarring.
Volume loss and symmetry adjustment.
Wrinkles and fine lines.
Tear troughs and deep folds.
Brown spots (face, neck, décolleté).
