At leading facial aesthetics and complication management practices, the traditional feel and inject method is being challenged by a more precise, data-driven standard: Ultrasound-guided injections.

Dr. Gina Moret, an expert in regenerative medicine and complication management with 15 years of experience, has seen her practice transform since integrating high-frequency ultrasound. It isn’t just about seeing anatomy—it’s about changing the patient-provider relationship.

We sat down with Dr. Moret to discuss how the Clarius L20 HD3—the leading handheld ultrasound for aesthetics—is changing the way she practices. Watch this 2-minute video with Dr. Moret or scroll on for highlights.

Why Facial Ultrasound is the New Standard in Aesthetic Safety

Dr. Moret’s transition to ultrasound was driven by a need for absolute precision. “The main reason that triggered me into using ultrasound,” Dr. Moret explains, “was to be able to see underneath the skin. To analyze the patient personally and give a bespoke treatment plan tailored to their unique anatomy.”

For clinicians, the benefits of facial ultrasound include:

• Vascular Mapping: Identifying the exact location of arteries to prevent accidental intravascular injections.
• Filler Identification: Visualizing old filler deposits (hyaluronic acid, PMMA, etc.) before new treatments.
• Complication Management: Precisely injecting hyaluronidase to dissolve fillers safely.

Why the Ultrasound Learning Curve is a Myth for Dr. Moret

Many clinicians hesitate to adopt facial ultrasound due to the perceived complexity. Dr. Moret is quick to refute this.

The learning curve is fast. Just like an iPhone or any device we have nowadays… it’s just as easy.”

She appreciates the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the Clarius App, which helps automate the identification of structures, allowing injectors to focus on the patient rather than the knobs and dials of a machine.

Radical Trust: Building Patient Confidence Through Visual Evidence

Patient trust is the bedrock of a successful practice. Dr. Moret notes that in 2026, patients are more educated than ever. They don’t just want filler; they want safe filler.

It completely changed patient trust. They come in already asking, ‘Let’s do the scanning, Dr. Gina.’ It gives them reassurance that the treatment is tailored specifically to their face.”

By using Clarius, Dr. Moret can show patients their own anatomy in real-time. This visual confirmation acts as “anatomical proof,” making patients feel safer and more invested in their treatment outcomes.

Dr. Moret uses Clarius Intelligence-powered Clarius T-Mode™ to explain what patients are seeing on an ultrasound image. Watch this 2-minute video to see T-Mode in action.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why should aesthetic injectors use ultrasound? A: Ultrasound allows for blind injections to become guided, significantly reducing the risk of vascular occlusion and allowing for precise filler placement.

Q: Is there a steep learning curve for facial ultrasound? A: As Dr. Moret mentions, modern handheld devices like Clarius use AI and intuitive interfaces, making the learning curve similar to learning a new smartphone app.

Q: Can ultrasound detect old fillers? A: Yes, high-frequency ultrasound can distinguish between different types of filler materials and their depth within the tissue layers.
