Advanced MD Codes™ 7-Point Shape Training

7-Point Shape Treatment

Revive Aesthetics Academy invites experienced aesthetic providers to participate in an immersive advanced injector training focused on structural facial balancing using the MD Codes™ 7-Point Shape technique.

Led by Stefanie Gatica, DNP, this comprehensive full-day program provides a deep exploration of facial assessment, treatment planning, and advanced injection strategy for midface structural support and aesthetic harmony.

Participants will gain insight into the clinical reasoning behind each step of treatment as Stefanie demonstrates her approach to facial analysis, vector planning, and product placement during live patient treatments.

This course is designed to move beyond simply learning injection points. Instead, the focus is on understanding how expert injectors think, including how to evaluate facial structure, determine the most effective treatment sequence, and achieve balanced, natural-looking results.

What You Will Learn

Participants will gain an advanced understanding of:

• Comprehensive facial assessment and aging patterns
• The philosophy behind MD Codes™ structural facial balancing
• Identifying candidates for midface structural correction
• Strategic marking of the 7-Point Shape
• Vector planning for lift and support
• Product selection and layering strategies
• Injection depth, placement, and sequencing
• When to use needle versus cannula approaches
• Symmetry evaluation and aesthetic refinement
• Risk reduction and complication management

Throughout the day, participants will observe the full treatment process, from consultation and marking to injection technique and post-treatment evaluation.

Live Patient Demonstrations

The course includes multiple live patient treatments, allowing participants to observe full facial balancing procedures in real clinical scenarios.

Each patient treatment will receive up to 7–8 syringes of dermal filler placed strategically within the MD Codes™ framework to restore structure and improve facial harmony.

Participants will observe:

• Patient evaluation and consultation
• Facial mapping and MD Codes™ marking
• Injection technique and product placement
• Treatment sequencing and vector strategy
• Post-treatment assessment and refinement

This real-time learning environment provides a unique opportunity to see how advanced injectors approach complex aesthetic treatments.

Course Format

• Full-day advanced training (approximately 8 hours)
• Combination of didactic education and live patient demonstrations
• Small group learning environment for optimal visibility and discussion
• Opportunities for questions and clinical discussion throughout the day

To ensure a high-quality educational experience, class size is intentionally limited.

Who Should Attend

This course is ideal for:

• Nurse practitioners, physician assistants, physicians, and registered nurses practicing aesthetic medicine
• Providers who already perform dermal filler treatments
• Injectors seeking to refine their approach to facial balancing and structural treatment planning

Participants should have prior experience with dermal filler injections, as this course focuses on advanced treatment strategy rather than beginner technique.
