A full day of hands-on training with the physician who created these techniques. Not a method passed down second-hand — the original, taught by its originator. Focused entirely on hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. The same masterclass runs on two consecutive days: ten delegates per day, live models, and Dr. van Eijk's direct feedback as you assess and inject.
90 minutes of theory — facial assessment, the Fern Pattern Technique™, the Lip Tenting Technique, the Palma Technique and strategic volume targeting.
Live facial assessment on the first two models. Emla applied ahead of injecting.
12:00–12:30.
A new model approximately every half hour, injecting under Dr. van Eijk's direct supervision.
Final models, case discussion and certificates of completion.
Programme set by Dr. van Eijk. Final timings confirmed before the event.
Saturday evening belongs to the group — sunset, dinner, and the island. Hosted by AME Academy. The full programme follows with your confirmation.
Partners are welcome for the evening — tell us on the booking form.
Born in 1969 and based in Amsterdam, Dr. Tom van Eijk is one of the Netherlands' most renowned cosmetic physicians and an international authority on injectable fillers. He developed the Fern Pattern Technique™ in 2005, published in the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, and has presented it worldwide — from Vancouver to Manila, Stockholm to Hong Kong. Since 2016 his workshops run under the Tom van Eijk Academy: small-scale, hands-on, and deliberately independent of filler manufacturers.
The same full masterclass runs on both 16 and 17 January. Choose whichever day suits your travel — or select "either day" and we'll place you where a seat is free.
When you submit the form we confirm your day and AME Academy issues your invoice. A $1,000 deposit reserves your seat, with the $2,000 balance invoiced before the event. Paying the $3,000 in full confirms it outright, with nothing further due. The fee is the same either way.
Yes — and many delegates prefer to. Bring a patient from your own practice: you treat a face you know, guided by Dr. van Eijk, and follow the result in your own clinic in the months after. The outcome and ongoing care stay within your practice, and your model receives their treatment as part of the masterclass. Prefer not to? We arrange a model for your session — just tell us on the booking form.
Yourself and your medical licence details. Working materials are provided. A confirmation pack with everything you need follows your booking.
