With world-renowned expert Dr. David Saadat
World-Renowned Aesthetic Expert
Dr. David Saadat is a world-renowned aesthetic expert recognized across the industry for his mastery of facial anatomy and his ability to translate complex anatomical knowledge into clinical precision for injectors at every level.
His cadaver-based teaching methodology is considered the gold standard in aesthetic education — giving providers a visceral, three-dimensional understanding of the structures that determine safety and outcomes in every treatment.
Training with Dr. Saadat doesn't just build knowledge — it fundamentally changes the way you see your patients and approach your work.
Day 1 is the Cadaver Dissection & Injection Lab — included for everyone. On Day 2, you choose: observe live model injections with guidance from Dr. Saadat, or take the syringe yourself and perform injections on live models under his direct guidance.
Under Dr. Saadat's instruction, you'll observe and explore real cadaveric tissue — identifying the distinct facial layers, fat compartments, vascular structures, and danger zones that define safe injection practice. You'll then inject dermal filler directly into the cadaver, followed by a live dissection so you can see exactly which anatomical layer your product landed in. There is no more powerful way to understand injection depth, plane accuracy, and complication avoidance.
Day 2 moves to live models. Watch live model injections up close, or take the syringe yourself and perform injections with direct guidance from Dr. Saadat. Two paths. Both transformative.
Licensing Requirement: Attendees performing procedures on live models must hold an active license in North Carolina. A supervising physician licensed in NC is required if applicable to your license type.
