Six training areas — expand your practice and gain a distinctive competitive advantage
New procedures — grow revenue from your existing patient base
Potential for a return many times greater than the cost of training
Proprietary lifting — results comparable to surgery
Clinical results vary. Return on investment depends on patient volume and practice economics.
The programme is not intended for practitioners seeking a short masterclass without fundamental training, anatomical practice or personal responsibility for patient care.
After completing the selected module, you will have not only a new technique, but an integrated system of clinical practice.
Following successful completion of the programme, doctors receive access to a private professional group for graduates.
Graduates will be able to receive professional guidance and educational support from Dr Hotaki within the professional community.
This is particularly valuable during the first months of independent practice, when newly acquired knowledge is being converted into consistent clinical competence.
You receive more than training. You become part of a private professional community in which complex cases do not remain undiscussed.
If the doctor cannot justify the decision, the technique remains merely a sequence of movements.
We teach the clinical reasoning behind every movement.
Not a one-day demonstration, but five consecutive stages of professional development.
Not a large audience, but no more than four doctors per group.
Not automatic admission, but a strict professional selection process.
Not one universal pattern for every patient, but an individualised assessment.
Not a preselected procedure, but the treatment-independent SAFA system.
Not subjective markings, but the proprietary UPS positioning system.
Not a standard instrument, but a specially invented proprietary needle.
Not anatomy taught only through slides, but cadaveric dissection.
Not an assumed implant plane, but ultrasound visualisation.
Not passive observation, but supervised practical training.
Not the end of contact after the course, but a private professional community.
Not the mechanical imitation of movements, but an understanding of anatomy, risk and clinical decision-making.
A comprehensive system integrating all principal aspects of aesthetic facial assessment
Dr Hotaki created the Standardised Aesthetic Patient Assessment (SAPA), which was subsequently developed into the Standardised Aesthetic Facial Assessment (SAFA).
SAFA was designed as a standardised, structured and procedure-independent system for patient assessment in aesthetic medicine.
Unlike many existing aesthetic assessment scales that evaluate only a specific area, a single ageing sign or the result of one procedure, SAFA integrates multiple clinical components into one unified assessment protocol.
SAFA creates a unified clinical language for examination, classification, documentation and reassessment of the patient.
SAFA teaches doctors to first identify and describe the clinical problem and only afterwards select the appropriate method of correction.
It represents a transition from procedure-oriented aesthetic medicine towards patient-assessment-based aesthetic medicine.
A proprietary positioning system developed specifically for Dr Hotaki's techniques
UPS is not a borrowed or universal thread-marking scheme.
Dr Hotaki developed UPS specifically for his own methods of permanent non-surgical lifting.
The system connects SAFA assessment results with a specific technical procedure plan.
A proprietary method developed as part of the complete clinical system
During the programme, doctors study the complete logic behind the proprietary permanent lifting technique.
An instrument developed simultaneously with the technique
To perform the proprietary techniques, Dr Hotaki developed a specially designed needle.
This is not a standard needle that was later adapted for a new technique.
The instrument is an integral part of the complete proprietary system together with assessment, positioning and technique.
The programme combines structured assessment, precise positioning, proprietary techniques and specially designed instruments into one unified approach.
Doctors learn not only how to perform a procedure, but how to analyse the patient, build a treatment strategy and make clinically justified decisions.
