Aesthetic Mentor

I loved the Aesthetic Mentor course on applied anatomy with Cadaver dissection because it was so valuable to see all the muscles, arteries, and veins of the face up close in person and realize what really lies under the skin of a patient when you are injecting them. As a new injector to now be able to visualize the muscle in my mind and really understand the anatomy after taking the course , has given me more confidence and most importantly made me a safer and more skilled injector. I now visualize the procerus and corrugator in my mind when marking and injecting because I really saw them and touched them on a cadaver! I visualize the frontalis muscles but also understand after seeing two separate cadavers that muscle placement can vary from person to person and knowing how to assess them is so important. I feel more confident knowing what to avoid but also understanding the “why”you... Read more >

The instructors really take their time and are so patient. I also love how the methodology is very focused on safe practice. Read more >

The Aesthetic Mentor Program was one of the most comprehensive, valuable and well run workshops I have ever attended. The material was relevant, succinct and rich in detail. The structure of the program of studies was well organized , starting with the didactic portion on Lightspeed for access, repetition and individual pace, to the hands-on portion with Instructors. Reinforcement of anatomy for safety was well represented by the Cadaver class. The clinical assessment of the face, was by far one of the most critical portions of the program, giving you a whole different skill to develop and sharpen. The Cadaver and facial assessment portion of the program I would like to see come first ,( Saturday) at the Glastonbury site, then the hands-on portion to follow the other two days( Sunday and Monday. I do understand , however, this may not be feasible due to the logistics of the... Read more >

I loved Aesthetic Institute of Massachusetts because the hands on training part of the course was excellent. The clinical team of teachers were so knowledgeable and welcoming. I’m glad I signed up for the beginner courses and can’t wait to complete a few more. Read more >

This class was very helpful, i would take it again in a heartbeat. Dr. Sykes is very personable and of course I loved interacting and learning from Dr. Russo Read more >

Taking the Dr. Russo and Dr. Sykes cadaver dissection course at AIM for the second time proved to be beneficial. After injecting for 12 years, I continue to always learn new things and improve my knowledge level and therefore, my skill set too. I will never think I am too experienced or knowledgeable to disregard an opportunity for advanced learning. Stay humble, always be willing and open to learn new things is my motto! Take the class, you will NOT regret it!! Also, the Sykes Face Sculpting class was another great class that did not disappoint- facial balance and harmony achieved through advanced assessment skills followed by injections in the appropriate places was the focus; as well as cheek, jawline and chin contouring. I highly recommend to beginner and experienced injectors! Read more >
