Change the Industry with Ultrasound

We’re coming back to Phoenix! After the incredible success of our 2025 course, we’re thrilled to return to sunny Arizona. Dr MJ is once again teaming up with Kristina Cadwell and Jenna Hilton to bring our world-renowned facial ultrasound training back to the United States. And this time, we’re offering our new Advanced Facial Ultrasound Course alongside our Foundation course.

This course consists of two training days: Foundation and Advanced. You have the option to do one or both courses. If you’re new to our training, we recommend doing both days to ensure you walk away with the most comprehensive knowledge and experience in facial ultrasound. If you’ve already completed the Foundation course, we encourage you to return and deepen your skills with our Advanced course.

COURSE DATE: Saturday 21st February 2026 (Foundation Day) + Sunday 22nd February 2026 (Advanced Day)
LOCATION: Vibrant Skin Bar – Phoenix, AZ

the best training I have attended in my 11 years in Aesthetic Medicine.

I recently attended the Hands on ultrasound training day with Dr MJ and can honestly say that this is the best training I have attended in my 11 years in Aesthetic Medicine. The whole team, from the booking process to the training were so helpful and organised. MJ’s knowledge and teaching style is another level of training and I would encourage all my medical aesthetic colleagues to attend this amazing course. The pre course training was fantastic as well as the hands on training. I felt so supported throughout the whole process. I have since introduced ultrasound scanning into my Aesthetic Practice and thanks to Dr MJ can add another level of safety to my Patient’s treatment plans. I will definitely be returning for more courses in the future.

What can I say about MJ and her team? You’re all rockstars. I felt at home from the first email of booking until the end of the course. MJ is a fountain of knowledge and she wants to share it with her delegates and make aesthetics safe and predictable for the patients. The Smileworks team are all helpful and astute. I will definitely be back for more training (and treatment!)

I couldn’t recommend this course enough, MJ is incredibly knowledgeable and leader of the industry, you really are being taught by the best!

I just finished my foundation training with MJ. The online content gives you a great depth and breadth of understanding to prepare you for putting this into practice. It’s great to know you have the most up to date and evidence based content, plus treatment videos to look back on whenever you need. What I loved about the hands on course was that you get stuck into treating patients with guidance from MJ. MJ and Charlotte were so supportive and encouraging throughout. I have left feeling confident to get started and put all this great teaching into action! I couldn’t recommend this course enough, MJ is incredibly knowledgeable and leader of the industry, you really are being taught by the best! When it’s time to further my training I wouldn’t look anywhere else!

Frequently Asked Questions
Where should I start with ultrasound?
If you have not started ultrasound in practice, this two-day course is perfect for you. This course includes self-direct online modules from our Foundation Facial Ultrasound Course and Advanced Facial Ultrasound Course that you will complete before arriving, plus two hands-on training days in Phoenix.

If you’ve already completed our Foundation course, there is also the option to join us for the advanced training day only.
What’s the difference between the Foundation and Advanced training days?
Day 1 (Foundation) is designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of facial ultrasound, including anatomy recognition, how to produce quality images, and vascular mapping to screen patients prior to injecting. We won’t inject on patients during this day (chicken breast, however, are not spared), and the day will be focused on building your foundational skills.

Day 2 (Advanced) takes your skills to the next level. You’ll get hands-on experience in identifying different filler types, performing guided treatments on live models, and managing complications like necrosis and filler blindness. The Advanced day offers both injecting and non-injecting (observational) options.
What is covered in the online courses?
Foundation Course: You will understand the principles of ultrasound and the terminology. The online curriculum covers how to make an image, basic ultrasound anatomy, and more detailed anatomy of the most common treatment areas in the face. There are also practical tips on how to set up and maintain your device, whether you are using a cart system or a handheld.

Advanced Course: The advanced online modules cover filler recognition techniques, ultrasound-guided injection protocols, and comprehensive complication management. You’ll learn how to distinguish between different injectable and implantable materials, improve treatment accuracy through guided injections, and develop the skills to identify and treat complication cases.
Can I take both days back-to-back?
Yes, and we actually encourage it! We offer combo bundles for taking both Foundation and Advanced courses together. You’ll save money with our bundle pricing: $5000 for both days with non-injecting on the Advanced day, or $5500 for both days with injecting on the Advanced day.
What are the injecting vs non-injecting options for the Advanced training day?
For our Advanced training day, you have the choice between actively injecting on models or observing your fellow delegates inject. Both options provide the same comprehensive training and learning experience. You simply choose your level of hands-on participation.

If you’re interested in injecting, be sure to secure your spot as soon as possible. Injecting spots are limited to 6 delegates.
What do I need to do if I’m doing the injecting option?
If you choose the injecting option for our Advanced day, you must bring:
  • One dissolving model
  • One filler-injecting model (temple or tear trough)
  • Valid Arizona state license

Please ensure you have all requirements before the course date.
Do I need to complete the Foundation course before taking the advanced course?
Yes, the Foundation course is a prerequisite for the Advanced course. This ensures you have the fundamental skills necessary to benefit from the advanced techniques covered.
What is the benefit of the private WhatsApp group?
One of the biggest perks of choosing the HUB is you gain access to an exclusive WhatsApp group that offers 24/7 access to Dr MJ and other HUB delegates for support, advice, and any case-related questions. It’s a supportive community where you can discuss facial aesthetics, share results, and talk about complications.
What if I have more questions?
Please reach out to our training coordinators on 0151 317 3066 or email delegates@smileworks-hub.co.uk. You can of course also get in touch on instagram via @smileworkshub and with Dr MJ direct on @dr_mj_smileworks. Our aim is to make ultrasound accessible and affordable to all practitioners so we can advance safe practice in aesthetics. Dr MJ and our team will be with you every step of the way in your success.
