Course Overview
The Solid Filler Lifting PDO Thread Lift Training Course by the American Academy of Facial Esthetics (AAFE) is designed for licensed healthcare professionals who want to add non-surgical facial lifting techniques to their practice. This course focuses on the use of FDA-cleared solid filler PDO threads to lift and tighten skin in the midface, lower face, neck, and jawline. It includes a detailed review of facial anatomy, patient assessment, treatment planning, and safety protocols. Participants receive live, hands-on training using thread lift techniques on model patients. Attendees must provide their own models, as models are not supplied. PDO threads are not included in the course tuition but are available for purchase. Continuing Education (CE) credits are offered upon completion. The Prepare On-Demand Module is a prerequisite to the live patient hands-on training.
