COURSE OBJECTIVES & OVERVIEW:

An AIAM inspired therapeutic event developed to create a combined learning initiative on the use and application of Advanced-Molded PDO Threads. (The course will be facilitated for advanced injectors only.) This specified training platform will include a focus on various threading techniques including ‘reverse vectors’ with molded threads!

COURSE STRUCTURE:

• Start the day with a complimentary catered breakfast.
• 30-Min lecture/didactic on Advanced PDO Threads.
• 60-Min of 1-on-1 hands-on practice.
• Observation of peers’ hands-on practice.
• Catered lunch.
• Comprehensive course workbook detailing theory and guidelines.
• Certification of Accreditation.

COURSE CAVEAT: The course is constructed specifically for ‘advanced PDO Threads practitioners’.Practitioners MUST have sustained thread lifting experience and also have 1+ years of sustained Microcannula injectable experience.

FULL COURSE DETAILS

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

This relatively 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 possess the necessary skill set to fully master (molded) PDO Threads techniques.

Each participant will have time to perform with various molded threads along with added support from Smooths & Twists. The application options (vectors) will be dependent on your progression rate (time-wise) and your aptitude for learning the therapy. 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:

• Molded (Blunt) 18G x 4” (2 versions)
• Smooth (Blunt) 19G x 3.5″
• Smooth (Blunt) 29G x 1″
• Smooth (Sharp) 29G x 1.5″

FUN FACTS – POINT #1: WHY ARE CANNULAS BETTER THAN A SHARP NEEDLES?
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.

FUN FACTS – POINT #2: 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.
