Watch Adam Matthews discuss an extensive vascular occlusion referral, ultrasound teaching, practitioner responsibility and aesthetics training in AA Aesthetics episode 5.
An extensive VO referral, discussed by Adam
In this episode from Adam’s AA Aesthetics channel, he describes receiving a referral during an ultrasound teaching session. The initial message identified one area of concern; his account describes a much more extensive presentation on assessment, affecting one side of the face from the chin towards the hairline.
The discussion also covers the importance of support from the original practitioner and the standards people should look for in aesthetics training. These are Adam’s published recollections, rather than an independently audited clinical record.
