Our Botox Training Approach

APT Injection Training upholds the highest standards of excellence and education in every single one of our training courses. Our courses are a combination of extensive theoretical-based learning and practical knowledge of all the latest Botox treatment techniques. 

Why should you travel from Edmonton to attend our training courses? Here’s what makes APT Injection Training stand above the rest:

Learn from Industry Leading Experts

Our toxin training is taught by reputable aesthetic injectors who pass on their knowledge acquired through years of practice and endless learning. APT Founder and Lead Practitioner Patricia Pezzano, BSc, BSc (NANS), RPN is at the forefront of our Botox training for Edmonton-based medical professionals. With more than 20 years of professional experience, she brings invaluable insights on achieving the “perfect practice” in both toxin and dermal fillers.

Hands-on Botox Training on Live Models

APT’s injection courses for Edmonton injectors requires the study of university-level pre-course materials that cover all the theoretical aspects of toxins and dermal fillers, which will be provided to students in advance. Ideally you complete your online education portion before your hands on training day.

The first hour of our hands on Botox training is a lecture, where students review fundamentals and practical tips discussed. The second phase is dedicated to the practical demonstration of one model by our experienced trainers and then the actual hands-on injecting by the students on live models continues from mid morning until the end of day. In our Botox training, students will be taught how to administer facial injections in both the upper and lower face safely and effectively.

Intimate Class Settings

Maximize your overall learning experience and the best value for your money with smaller and more focused classes. The hands-on portion of your training follows a strict 2:1 trainee to trainer ratio. After years of conducting our cosmetic injection training using this personalized and more experiential approach, students have shown to be:

• More empowered to ask questions knowing full well that they have their instructor’s 100 percent attention. 
• Less intimidated to communicate their concerns, as opposed to being in a bigger class. 

• Thrilled with the ample amount of time allotted for actual hands-on training since they do not have to take turns with a large number of other participants. 
• Highly confident and competent enough to properly administer the injections in their own clinical setting after training because they had sufficient time to practice on live models and their progress was closely monitored by their instructors.

Who We Are For

APT’s Botox and injection courses are perfect for anyone operating out of Edmonton. They are specifically designed for licensed medical practitioners to expand their practice and have Botox in their repertoire of cosmetic treatment expertise to create a stellar resume and attract more clients. Eligible participants include physicians, registered nurses, registered practical nurses, nurse practitioners and  dental surgeons from Edmonton and across Canada.

Our Training Courses

APT Injection Training has a wide selection of courses dedicated to facial rejuvenation, including the following:

Foundation Toxin and Dermal Filler Certificate of Attendance

A 2-day training course intended for registered medical professionals. It combines critical theoretical university level pre-course learning, practical demonstration of procedures, and extensive hands-on training on live models. It is a stand-alone course that is the minimum required to begin practising toxin and dermal filler treatments.  It can also be used as credit toward the more intensive, internationally recognized International Certificate in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Therapies.

International Certificate in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Therapies.

APT Injection Training is the only training centre in North America to offer true third-party certification in conjunction with our UK partner, MATA training and OTHM—an internationally recognized awarding body. This means that you are able to apply the experience you have gained in our courses toward a globally recognized International Certificate in Clinical Aesthetic Injectable Therapies. 

The international certification involves completion of extensive, university-level pre course work (representing 230 UK CME), 3 days of intensive training, completion of a logbook and short answer questions that are all independently assessed by OTHM who then awards the certification.  This is a true certification. Other courses that “certify” are really doing it only to their standards, not independently developed and assessed standards. 

APT Injection Training has been independently assessed, including our processes, training materials, and other related matters and certified by a recognized independent organization. This is a valuable endorsement that promotes the level of expertise and quality that you can expect from our Botox training courses for Edmonton-based students.

Basic Lower Face Cannula Training–Hyaluronic Acid

Learn an adjunctive way to administer dermal fillers on clients via the cannula technique. This 1-day course training will go over similar topics in the Basic Filler Training Course, including the same pre-course reading material, employs the same 2:1 trainee: trainer ratio with approximately 7-8 live models but the hands-on training will involve the use of cannulas predominately in addition to needles.

Advanced Dermal Filler Training–Hyaluronic Acid & Radiesse

This is the next step after Foundation Basic Filler Injection and the Lower Face Cannula Training Program. It’s a 1-day training course that continues with cannula injections, focuses on more advanced treatment areas, such as the temples and tear troughs and introduces the use of Radiesse – a longer lasting filler composed of calcium hydroxyapatite. It includes pre-course reading material, employs the same 2:1 trainee: trainer ratio with approximately 7-8 live models for hands-on injections. This is highly recommended for professionals with prior experience of injecting at least 50 patients before taking this course as the adverse events in the temples and tear troughs can be severe and permanent.

Lip Filler Training

A comprehensive 1-day hands-on training on live models and lecture covering the latest types of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers for lip enhancement. With the same comprehensive pre course material as the other filler courses, it delves into different lip injection protocols combining both cannula and needle technique. The focus is on lip analysis and how to employ different techniques to achieve volume, definition, support and contour but most importantly to obtain natural-looking, proportional lips that clients will love.

The Laser Module Course

This online training course is expertly written to support you with your theoretical learning on the safe and effective use of laser and intense light technology for cosmetic treatments, such as hair reduction and skin rejuvenation.  Purchasing a laser machine is a major investment that requires in-depth laser knowledge to make sure you make the correct purchase for your practice and client profile.  This course will help you do that by educating you on the core laser technology, so you understand the individual machine nuances as they are trialed in your business. The objective is to enable practitioners to succinctly assess the different laser machines on the market to help you choose the right machine for your practice.

Dental Filler & Botox Training

An intensive 1-day training course for dentists who seek to add neurotoxin injection and lip filler services to their current scope of practice. It involves pre-course theoretical material covering both neurotoxin and dermal filler including anatomy, recognizing contraindications, potential risks, the use of hyaluronidase and emergency procedures. The hands-on injection portion will include cosmetic toxin injections, TMJ injections, lips and lower face dermal filler indications. We employ the same, customized 2:1 trainee: trainer ratio as in all of our APT courses to ensure maximum hands-on injection and confidence when leaving the course.
