OHI-S Ultrasound-Guided Injection in Aesthetic Medicine 2 lessons 25min

Sara Khoshnaw introduces ultrasound as a tool for assessment and injection guidance in aesthetic medicine. This two-lesson OHI-S course connects facial anatomy with real-time imaging, including recognition of vascular structures, anatomical variation, and dermal fillers. The first lesson considers preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic uses of ultrasound, along with practical barriers to adoption. The second reviews ultrasound physics, transducers, anatomical correlation, and injection-related applications. With a listed course duration of 25 minutes, it offers a concise introduction for aesthetic clinicians, dermatologists, and plastic surgeons interested in incorporating imaging into their assessment and procedural planning.

Learning Objectives

• Visualize real-time facial anatomy to ensure safe and accurate injections.
• Identify arteries, veins, and patient-specific anatomical variations.
• Execute ultrasound-guided dermal filler placement and perform continuous monitoring.
• Apply preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic applications of ultrasound within aesthetic practices.
• Optimize injection techniques to achieve predictable, precise, and tailored patient outcomes.

Language: English. The course is listed as 25 minutes overall, while its two lesson headings show 13 and 11 minutes. These durations are retained as supplied. Recorded education does not itself establish procedural competency.
