About Our Academy
Why We're different...
After traveling nationally to train for more than 5 years & being named CourseKarma's Instructor of the Year in 2021 for injectables, Dr. Hughes made the decision with tons of encouragement from those she'd trained in the past to found an injector's academy where professionals would instead travel to The Tooth Booth to learn exactly how it's all executed on the leopard carpet. Frustrated with her own early injectables training experiences where an overload of brand new & poorly presented information was thrown at a very large group where instructors & models were sparse, Dr. Hughes has formulated a course curricula to best usher professional growth in aesthetics through foundational learning based on the years of her own educational experiences, as well as her personal experiences in teaching so many others.
What to expect: a boutique learning experience in a real practice setting with a small class size (6 students max per course), live model training & nearly all-inclusive tuition that will (in the case of most classes) include coursework, learning materials, injectables products, free assistant training, meals, hotel accommodations, ground transportation from our closest international airport (BNA) and to all scheduled course events via our Tooth Booth "party bus"-- so all you'll need to think about is learning! Courses at our academy are set-up so that you may begin AND advance with us in a manner that instills confidence as applied knowledge & skills are successfully applied to practice, instead of overpaying for the usual intimidating, overwhelming & overcrowded weekend course with too few instructors & models that over-promises attendees will leave ready to tackle more than can be achieved in such a setting. Our philosophy is that knowledge is built upon knowledge, and so your skill as an injector is best built upon in a slow, methodical manner--exactly how Dr. Hughes engineered our small-class, course schedule.
BUT...because this isn't your typical injectables training, it isn't as easy as paying for your coursework to add your name to the academy roster. If Dr. Hughes is keeping her class size limited for your best learning, then she has to also ensure that the most appropriate candidates are gaining those limited spots as we've had a waiting list since before the official launch of our academy. In light of this, there is an application process for our courses. Below you'll find a list of upcoming courses along with a link for application to our academy on which you'll be asked to denote which course & date you're applying. Once your application is reviewed to make sure you're an appropriate fit for the coursework requested, you will be notified of course acceptance, placement, and given a link to secure your course position with your deposit.
We look forward to introducing you to or helping you to grow within the aesthetic injectables community.

ALL ABOUT Neuromodulators
Introduction to Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers
Introduction to Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers
An introduction to the full face application (both on and off label uses) of neuromodulators such as Botox & Dysport. Since Dr. Hughes believes injectors can't best treat with fillers until they can first confidently & comprehensively treat all muscles of the face, we have authored this course to not only serve as your comprehensive guide to neurotoxins, but to fully set the foundation for your further endeavours in injectables. Attendees will learn aesthetic & therapeutic applications of neurotoxins along with how best to introduce them to your practice from a business & marketing standpoint.

Introduction to Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers
For those injectors who are confident & comfortable with full facial neuromodulators ready to begin work with reversible HA dermal fillers. You'll be introduced to the most common dermal fillers on the market today, their uses, safe applications including how to prevent, recognise & reverse a vascular complication, and techniques in the areas that are not only the easiest for those just beginning with fillers, but that are also the areas that should be treated first when practicing comprehensive facial aesthetics. We will practice in areas of foundational support for the face: mid-face (cheeks), peri-oral (nasiolabial folds), & lower face deficiencies (chin).

Advanced Neuromodulators & HA Fillers
Advanced Neuromodulators & HA Fillers
Advanced Neuromodulators & HA Fillers
For those injectors who a.) have had previous training in, b.) are confident & comfortable with, and c.) are ready to expand on their knowledge in full face neuromodulators & HA dermal fillers while "putting it all together" for best treatment sequencing & results. The most skilled injectors are the ones that treat comprehensively, & you can't successfully do that without being able to plan the case appropriately. Because of this, attendees will, in addition to 1.) troubleshooting any difficulties they're having with injectables, & 2.) learning the safe applications (including how to prevent, recognise & reverse vascular complications) and techniques in the more technique sensitive areas (in/around the lips, downturns, jawline, V3-V4 cheek vectors) with needle & cannula delivery, will 3.) also concentrate on full facial comprehensive treatment planning with both neurotoxins & HA fillers.

Advanced Profile enhancements
Advanced Neuromodulators & HA Fillers
Advanced Neuromodulators & HA Fillers
As the "princess of profiles," perhaps the one thing Dr. Hughes is best known for among patients & other injectors is her work in profile enhancements with injectables (Kybella, HA fillers, & neurotoxins). Attendees do not have to have prior training with deoxycholic acid (Kybella) as it's safe & successful application into your practice will be covered in this course. Attendees should however have prior training in full face neuromodulators & HA dermal fillers to be confident & comfortable injecting both. Attendees will learn how best to identify, treatment plan, & treat profile enhancement cases safely & successfully with a combination of deoxycholic acid, HA fillers, & neuromodulators.
