Injector Series — INJ.02

The ageing face: anatomy before product

What ageing actually does to skin, fat, muscle and bone — compartment by compartment and decade by decade — and the structural principles of volume restoration that sit above any product decision, including when restoration is the wrong answer.

Your progress 0 of 14 checkpoints committed

Unit 1 Biology of Ageing How skin, fat, muscle and bone change with age, why skin quality decides whether restored volume lifts or displaces, and reading the face as layers. 3 checkpoints · ~8 min Not started Unit 2 The Fat Compartment System DMCF, SOOF, nasolabial and jowl — what each compartment supports, how it fails, and why the restoration site is rarely where the deficit shows. 3 checkpoints · ~8 min Not started Unit 3 Decade by Decade An interactive decade selector from the 20s to the 70s. The comparison between adjacent decades is the clinical content. 3 checkpoints · ~8 min Not started Unit 4 Sex-Based & Ethnic Differences How sex and ethnic background modify the trajectory, held as a broadened assessment frame rather than as a determinant of treatment. 2 checkpoints · ~8 min Not started Unit 5 Volume Restoration & the Surgical Threshold Depth and plane principles, matching the area to the plane, and recognising when volume restoration is the wrong answer. 3 checkpoints · ~8 min Not started

Each unit follows the same rhythm: a short piece of clinical content, a checkpoint that asks you to commit to an answer, then the reasoning behind it. Checkpoints are not scored and cannot be retried — committing to a position before seeing the answer is the point of the exercise. Your progress is stored on this device only.

Prerequisite. This module assumes the clinical framework established in INJ.01 — Neuromodulators. Completing that module first is strongly recommended.
