Professor Alessio Redaelli presents a structured approach to facial aesthetics that starts with assessment and anatomy before moving to treatment planning. The five-lesson OHI-S program, listed as four lessons plus one free lesson with a total duration of 1 hour 51 minutes, covers facial proportions, layered anatomy, muscles, ligaments, and changes associated with aging. Later sessions connect these foundations to lifting, volumization, and practical injection demonstrations. The course is intended for aesthetic medicine practitioners, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons who want to relate anatomical findings to treatment choices, with attention to vascular safety and complication prevention.
