Through the ages, lips have always been an important feature of the face. What started with well-defined lipstick for the likes of Marilyn Munroe has moved toward shape and definition and the want to of the perfect pout, a la Kylie Jenner and the Kardashians.

This course gives you all the knowledge and practical skills needed to perform dermal filler treatments to the lower third of the face including the lips. From the structure of hyaluronic acid and treatment procedures, to client consultations and injection techniques, you will first complete online training from the comfort of your own workplace or home which will teach and test your understanding of a wide range of modules crucial to give you the best background understanding of the subject including the anatomy and physiology of the face and skin.

Following this will be face-to-face online theory training with an expert practitioner to further underpin your knowledge. Finally, you will attend practical training at the famous Cosmetic Couture Academy where you will learn the practical skills of administering dermal fillers on live models overseen by your expert tutor. This will include the trademarked HD Lip technique, launched in 2016. All practical training facilitated at the Cosmetic Couture clinic will result in fully accredited CPD certification.
