The promise. A routine appointment can change in seconds. Rehearse the response now.

The CODE RED Readiness Course is a free three lesson interactive course for aesthetic clinicians. It helps you decide whether a post treatment concern is expected, needs review or could be an emergency, then rehearse the first safe response while help is arranged.

A worried client points to a concern while the clinician assesses her.
The next decision is yours.

The transformation
