Course Overview
The Intermediate Neuromodulator and Dermal Filler Course at RUMA Academy is a comprehensive 7-hour training designed for medical professionals—including RNs, NPs, PAs, and MDs—who have at least six months of full-time injecting experience and seek to enhance their skills in advanced aesthetic procedures. This course provides in-depth instruction on patient assessment, facial anatomy, product selection, injection techniques, various toxin reconstitutions, and complication management. Participants will learn to treat areas such as the masseters, mentalis, nasalis, depressor anguli oris, perform lip flips, address platysmal bands, apply microtox for fine lines, and manage hyperhidrosis. Additionally, the course covers dermal filler injections in the lower face using both needle and cannula techniques, as well as Kybella administration with a cannula. Live models are provided for hands-on practice, offering attendees practical experience under expert supervision. To participate in the hands-on component, attendees must hold a Compact Nursing License or a Utah license (PA, NP, or MD); those unable to obtain a Utah license may attend as observers or apply for a temporary license. A Certificate of Completion is awarded upon finishing the course. CE/CME credits are not currently offered.
