During those two full days mentees will meet real patients, discuss their goals, and then get a glimpse of my advanced injection techniques. We will spend time going over:
- Anatomy
- Consultation: Learn how to talk to patients and get them to reveal exactly what they’re hoping to achieve (hint: this can be tougher than it sounds).
- Assessment: Expect to see between 25-50 different patients each day, which means you’ll get an extensive and diverse exposure to different challenges you’ll face as an injector.
- Product evaluation: Pros and cons of each product and which products work best on specific areas of the face and neck.
- Technique: We’ll go over various on-label and off-label injection techniques, which I’ve spent nearly two decades refining.
- Beyond injecting: There’s so much more to cosmetic medicine beyond injecting. We’ll evaluate lasers and other non-surgical cosmetic procedures, and how they can benefit your patients.
As you can see, patient evaluation and assessment is so important, which is why I don’t ignore it during your training.
You’ll always be learning and growing, and I’ll always be there for you
Training can be completed at any of my four practice locations in Chicago, Oak Brook, Arlington Heights and/or Naperville, Illinois. These two training days need not be completed at the same location. At the end of the second day I invite you to inject a patient of your choice with one syringe of Juvéderm and 20 units of Botox, both of which are included in your training. (Some students opt to purchase more, which is provided to you at my cost). Upon completion of your training, you’ll receive a certificate of completion from the Wrinkle Fairy Institute and more importantly, a vast array of knowledge. I tell each of my students that it doesn’t end there, though. It’s my hope that I’m welcomed as a resource and a mentor for the rest of your career. My students rest assured knowing that I’m always a phone call away if they need advice, have questions, encounter an adverse event, need to come back and shadow for some reinforcement, or even if they just want to talk about life. I’m honored by the students who ask me to write letters of recommendation for them as they advance further in their respective careers.
Wrinkle Fairy training particulars
Know that I also provide “shadow-only” days for those who wish to shadow me without full certification. The difference between shadow-only days and full certification is pretty simple: I won’t spend as much time explaining things in detail during shadow-only days. There will be some one-to-one between us, but I’ll get way more into detail about what goes into each decision I make during the full certification training. Put simply, look at shadow-only days as you looking over my shoulder, and full certification days as us standing shoulder-to-shoulder. Additionally, full certification training will earn you three hours of CME credits.
Pricing is as follows:
Full Certification with the Wrinkle Fairy Institute – $2400 (includes 3 hours of CME credits)
Daily shadowing – $525
Accepted payments: Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, check and cash. Invoice will be provided for receipt of payment.
A deposit of $500 is needed for full certification to hold training dates and the rest of the payment is due on the morning of training.
For shadow-only days payment will be due when the training is booked.
I look forward to having you as part of the Wrinkle Fairy team. If you have any questions about training please feel free to email me directly at wrinklefairy@gmail.com or call me at 312.543.5441.
