Module 2: Biostimulators & Skinboosters
Patients increasingly ask for natural results, better skin quality and results that last. The practitioners who can deliver them build a broader patient base and a long-term career.
- 9 Lessons + 4 Demo videos | Online theory available in 100+ languages
- You'll learn: Biostimulators (PLLA, CaHA), polynucleotides, HA skinboosters
- Anatomy, Complication prevention, Patient assessment & Product selection
- Online theory, optional Hands-on Training Day

What you'll learn in this module
What students say
Reviews from module participants
From professionals who have completed the foundation module.
“Every injector should be able to recognise a vascular event and act on it within minutes. We teach the anatomy and the technique, but we also teach what to do on the worst day of your clinical career.”
“Regenerative treatments ask a different question than fillers do. Not what shape do I want today, but what tissue quality am I building over the next two years. Practitioners who make that shift get better long-term results and far fewer surprises.”
Who this module is for
Who is this module for?
Whether you already inject or are about to start, the module gives you the mechanisms, assessment and safety behind regenerative injectables. The online theory is open to anyone. The clinical day is for doctors, nurses and dentists.
Add regenerative treatments
Experienced injectors
You already inject toxin and filler. Learn the mechanism behind biostimulators and skinboosters so you can choose the right product for each patient.
Build the science first
Newer injectors
Start with mechanism, depth and patient selection before habits set in. Theory is the entry point. Hands-on is the upgrade.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Still unsure? Reach out and we will guide you to the right starting point.
Anyone can buy the online theory. The hands-on training day is open to doctors, nurses and dentists with documented education.
No. The module works for experienced injectors adding regenerative treatments and for practitioners new to injectables who want to start with the science.
Yes. You can add hands-on training after passing the online theory. The upgrade costs €2 000.
You receive a certificate and diploma from Nordic Aesthetics Academy for the theory, and another for the clinical day if you complete it. Whether you may perform these treatments depends on the rules in your country and your professional status, and checking this is your responsibility.
For the clinical day you must document that your background allows you to perform the treatments in the country where the training takes place. If you are unsure, contact us before enrolment and we will guide you.
Under direct supervision you practise biostimulator and skinbooster treatments on real patient models, plus regenerative treatment planning for skin quality. All models are covered by NAA insurance and safety protocols.
You retake it with new questions and the same standard. You need to pass the online theory before the clinical day.
We create a structured follow-up plan. This may include reassessment or additional supervised training, and you do not buy the module again.
One full clinical day from 10:00 to 16:00: a focused theory session, live treatment demonstrations, treatment planning and patient assessment, supervised practice on real patient models and individual clinical feedback. You treat at least one real patient model per treatment type. Groups are 5 to 10 participants. All equipment, materials and lunch are included.
