MASTER THE BASICS BEFORE BUYING THAT FANCY DEVICE
Don’t chase every new gadget or laser. Nail injection fundamentals—facial anatomy, aseptic technique, complication management—then level up. Your hands, not your swag, make the magic.

COMMIT TO CONTINUOUS LEARNING
One weekend course is just the start of your journey. Subscribe to journals, join peer-review groups, hunt down live demos. If you’re not nerding out regularly, you’ll plateau faster than you think.

BUILD YOUR ‘AESTHETICS SQUAD’
Find a mentor, tag along with a seasoned injector, swap cases with peers. Isolation breeds mistakes. A solid network = instant lifeline when you hit a complication or plateau.

FIND YOUR NICHE—DON’T BE A JACK OF ALL TRADES
Lip fillers are fun, but if you throw yourself at every trend (voodoo facelifts, anyone?), you’ll drown. Pick 1–2 signature treatments, own them, then expand.

TRACK EVERYTHING—IT’S YOUR GOLDMINE
Document every before/after, pain score, downtime, patient feedback. A spreadsheet beats vague memories when you tweak technique or pitch a study.

COMMUNICATION IS YOUR SUPERPOWER
Learn to READ faces AND read people. Set clear expectations—no one wants a surprise bruise or an overfilled pout. Scripts for consults save you from awkward “I thought…” dramas.
