1.⁠ ⁠Introduction (Why it matters)

• Briefly define malar oedema and its relevance in clinical or aesthetic practice.
• State the learning objectives (recognition, risk factors, management strategies).

2. Understanding the Condition (What it is)

• Anatomy and pathophysiology of the malar region.
• Common causes, triggers, and patient risk profiles.
• How to differentiate malar oedema from similar conditions (e.g., malar mounds, festoons).

3. Management Approaches (What to do)

• Assessment techniques and diagnostic tools.
• Conservative, medical, and procedural management options.
• Preventive measures for high-risk patients.

4. Case Studies and Q&A (Applying knowledge)

• Real patient examples showing decision-making and outcomes.
• Key take-home messages and open discussion with participants.

Speakers:

• Anatomical assessment – understanding nasal structure, skin thickness, and vascular risk zones before treatment.
• Patient selection and goals – identifying ideal candidates, contraindications, and setting realistic expectations.
• Injection techniques – choosing the right filler, planes of injection, and micro-dosing strategies for safe, precise corrections.
• Complication prevention and management – recognizing early warning signs of vascular compromise and applying proper protocols.

Dr. Jani van Loghem

• Comprehensive facial assessment – how to evaluate muscle balance, skin quality, and patient goals before planning toxin placement.
• Advanced injection strategies – specific patterns, dosing, and depth adjustments for achieving lifting rather than just relaxation.
• Combining techniques – integrating neurotoxin with other modalities (e.g., fillers, threads, energy devices) for synergistic lifting results.
• Avoiding complications – recognising high-risk areas, managing asymmetries, and ensuring natural expressions post-treatment.
