Breaking Free from Brand-Led Training in Aesthetic Medicine

Training That Puts You — Not the Pharmaceutical Companies — First 

When it comes to training in cosmetic injectables, many practitioners start with the “free” workshops offered by pharmaceutical companies. While these sessions can be a useful introduction, they come with one big limitation: they’re designed to promote that company’s own products, focusing only on on-label treatments and leaving you with a narrow view of what’s possible in practice. 

At The Face Place Academy, we believe your education should serve you and your patients — not a brand. 

That’s why we’ve built our training around what really matters for cosmetic injectors: 

• Small, intimate workshops where you’ll receive personalised guidance, not just a seat in a crowded room. 
• Comprehensive theory learning online before you arrive, so workshop time is dedicated to the most valuable part — practical, hands-on training. 
• Unbiased education across all the leading brands used in New Zealand, including Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin®, Restylane®, Juvederm®, Belotero®, and Teoxane. 
• On-label and off-label training that reflects the reality of modern cosmetic practice, giving you the skills and confidence to expand your scope and deliver better outcomes for your patients. 

 

 

Our approach ensures you graduate with skills that are practical, versatile, and independent of brand influence — setting you apart as a knowledgeable, competent, and confident injector. 

Now is the perfect time to plan ahead for 2026 and what skills you need to become a more competent injector. With our payment plan options, you can start mapping out your 2026 professional development plan today and secure your place in our comprehensive training workshops. 

 

At The Face Place Academy, we don’t just teach you how to inject — we prepare you for a successful, fulfilling future in cosmetic medicine.
