Description

Lidocaine Infiltration and Nerve Block Course

Course Overview

This course is designed to equip healthcare professionals and aesthetic practitioners with essential knowledge and practical skills in the safe and effective use of lidocaine for local anaesthesia. The focus is on two core application techniques: infiltration anaesthesia and nerve block. These are widely used in aesthetic medicine, minor surgical procedures, dental anaesthesia, and dermatological treatments.

The training provides a comprehensive foundation in the pharmacology, mechanisms of action, and clinical application of lidocaine. Participants will learn about dosage guidelines, legal responsibilities, proper injection techniques, anatomical site selection, and how to manage potential complications such as systemic toxicity or failed anaesthesia. This course is ideal for regulated professionals working within the scope of minor procedures or local anaesthetic administration.
