    The Dunning–Kruger Curve in Aesthetic Training: Why Injectors Are Disproportionately Blind to the Dip

    The Dunning–Kruger effect describes a robust cognitive bias whereby individuals with limited competence in a domain systematically overestimate their ability, while genuine experts tend to underestimate theirs (Kruger & Dunning, 1999). In non-surgical aesthetic medicine — where short foundation courses are commercially abundant, regulation is fragmented, and the consequences of error include blindness and skin necrosis — this bias appears to operate with unusual force.
