What You'll Learn

Built around what actually matters.

Theory, case studies, assessments, and hands-on practice, integrated into a programme designed for healthcare professionals who want to do this properly.

01 · Anatomy-driven technique

Safe, precise injection grounded in anatomy.

Master injection techniques built on a deep understanding of facial anatomy, ageing, and vascular structures. The foundation of every natural, balanced result.

02 · The science behind injectables

Evidence-based decisions, not just protocols.

Understand the pharmacology of botulinum toxin and dermal fillers so you can make confident clinical decisions. Not just follow a recipe.

03 · Complication prevention and management

Ready for the moments that matter.

Recognise, prevent, and manage complications including vascular occlusion, asymmetry, and allergic reactions. Expert emergency protocols built in from day one.

04 · Patient assessment and ethical practice

Treatment plans as individual as the patient.

Develop expertise in facial analysis, consultation, and ethical patient communication. Every treatment tailored to the person in front of you.

Look Inside the Course

Clinical diagrams, built for injectors.

Clinical slide titled 'Mechanism of Action: How Botulinum Toxin Works', with a four-step numbered list explaining toxin binding at nerve endings, SNARE protein blockade, absent muscle contraction signal, and reduced movement. Two paired diagrams (A and B) below contrast normal neurotransmitter release with botulinum toxin exposure at the neuromuscular junction. Injector Academy logo top right.

Pharmacology · Foundation

Understanding the mechanism before you inject it

The Aesthetic Foundations curriculum goes beyond injection technique. You'll understand exactly how botulinum toxin works at the neuromuscular junction: how the toxin binds, how SNARE proteins are blocked, and why the result is temporary muscle relaxation rather than permanent change.

This is the pharmacological foundation that separates a practitioner who understands their product from one who simply follows a dose chart.

  • Toxin binding at the neuromuscular junction
  • SNARE protein blockade and acetylcholine release
  • Mechanism of temporary muscle relaxation
  • Clinical implications for dosing and placement
Clinical slide titled 'Muscles of the Upper Face: Procerus', with anatomical and functional notes describing the procerus as a small superficial muscle overlying the nasal bridge that pulls skin downward. Three reference panels below show a patient with horizontal glabellar lines, a mechanism-of-action illustration, and an anatomical location diagram. Injector Academy logo top right.

Anatomy · Applied

Muscle-by-muscle anatomy, applied to real patients

Every muscle in the curriculum is taught with three reference points: the anatomical location, the mechanism of action, and a real patient presentation. The Procerus, for example, is a small superficial muscle overlying the nasal bridge that draws glabellar skin inferiorly, producing horizontal lines over the nasal dorsum.

Knowing its origin, insertion, and function tells you exactly where to place, how much to use, and what result to expect. That is what anatomy-driven technique means in practice.

  • Orbital group: Corrugator supercilii, Depressor supercilii, Orbicularis oculi
  • Upper face: Frontalis, Procerus, Nasalis
  • Mid and lower face: Zygomaticus, Depressor anguli oris, Mentalis
  • Danger zones and vascular mapping for safe injection

Built For

Wherever you're starting from.

Three honest places to begin. We'll help you place yourself accurately during your enquiry call.

The new starter

You're a registered health professional with a clinical background but no aesthetic injecting experience. You want to build the career properly. Start with Foundation or the full bundle.

The returning practitioner

You trained two or five years ago, lapsed, and you're ready to come back. Or you trained overseas and need an NZ-compliant refresh. We'll place you accurately and rebuild confidence.

The advancing injector

You've completed a foundation course elsewhere and you're ready to expand technique or modality. Advanced or Filler Foundation builds on what you already know.

What Makes Us Different

Training that respects your investment.

Six things you won't always find in NZ aesthetic training, but will find here.

01

Your learning materials are yours to keep

Every student receives a comprehensive self-directed training pack: presentations, videos, case studies, and a digital workbook to reference throughout your entire career. Not just during the course.

02

No lock-in. Just options.

Training is training. No oversight commitments required to complete your course. If you do choose to join the MObyJC community afterwards, you receive an exclusive discounted rate on medical oversight.

03

$950 starter pack included

Enrol in the Foundation and Advanced bundle and receive the Aesthetic Injector Starter Pack ($500) and Treatment and Adverse Event Protocol Manual ($450) at no extra cost.

04

Honest Answers

Questions, addressed.

The questions most likely to come up before you enquire. Answered candidly.

Which course should I start with?

Most students choose the Anti-Wrinkle and Dermal Filler bundle because it's the most cost-effective complete entry into aesthetic practice. Three courses in one, with the Starter Pack and Protocol Manual included. If budget is a consideration, start with Anti-Wrinkle Foundation and add courses as you progress. We'll help you place yourself accurately on your discovery call.

Do I need prior aesthetic experience to enrol?

No. The Foundation course is designed for registered health professionals with no prior aesthetic injecting experience. You need a clinical background and current registration, but not aesthetic experience. If you've trained before and want to assess your level, book a discovery call and we'll place you accurately.

What happens at the practical day?

Practical days take place at JC Injectables clinic in South Auckland. You'll work through supervised injection practice under NP oversight in a real clinical environment. Cohort sizes are kept small to protect your supervised practice time. You'll complete a competency-based assessment on the day, not just a written exam.

Can I practise immediately after completing the course?

You'll be clinically ready to inject within scope on completion. Practising aesthetics independently requires indemnity insurance, prescribing rights or a standing order arrangement, and a compliant clinic environment. We walk you through all of this during the course and can support you with next steps, including MObyJC oversight if you choose it.

Is there a commitment to use MObyJC for oversight after the course?

No. Training is training. There are no oversight commitments required to complete your course. If you choose to join the MObyJC community afterwards, you receive an exclusive discounted rate on medical oversight. That's entirely your call.

Is this course CPD-recognised?

Yes. CPD hours are documented on completion and are recognised by the Nursing Council for continuing competence. The programme is endorsed by the College of Nurses Aotearoa, and other professional bodies recognise the hours under their own CPD frameworks.

What's included in the Aesthetic Injector Starter Pack?

The Starter Pack is a practical resource bundle valued at $500, designed for your first months in practice. It includes clinical reference materials, consent and documentation templates, and resources that support council licensing applications. The Treatment and Adverse Event Protocol Manual (valued at $450) is a separate document covering emergency response protocols for your clinic. Both are included free when you enrol in the Foundation and Advanced bundle.
