There is no better investment than becoming prepared for when a true adverse event occurs.  At InjectAbility®, we believe we have developed a curriculum in a webinar that can help you with this preparation. We have enlisted the help of Australian nurse, Mike Clague, BSC to assist in presenting some of the filler section, most notably the tremendously arduous section covering blindness. Nurse Mike is known as the first practitioner to ever successfully reverse a case of blindness.  

In true InjectAbility form, we will be using evidence-based, up to date research to train medical professionals how to medically address the various concerns immediately. We’ve taken this course to the next level by including both neuromodulator complications as well as dermal filler complications. In addition, we will be addressing how to draft comprehensive consents as well as how to go over these consents thoroughly with patients. We will leave you with a complication log to assess your own practice’s rate of complications.
