❔What is the PracticalCME Difference?
Attend the Best PRP Training in Chicago and Practice Confidently!
You are only taught by MD’s who have built successful full-time aesthetic practices. Learn from Physicians who have hired and supervised aesthetic RN’s and NP’s, not traveling social media personalities with little experience building a successful real-world practice.
Importantly, PracticalCME teaches no “Advanced” level courses. You learn everything that works and is in demand from our one comprehensive Botox/Filler or PRP/Microneedling course.
In addition, NP’s cannot be trained by RN’s and MD’s cannot be trained by NP’s or RN’s in an accredited CME environment. Unaccredited training will not be accepted by your professional liability insurance. We have had to re-train hundreds of students who wasted their time with unaccredited training in the past.
With PracticalCME, you get Premium, Small-Group Cosmetic Platelet Rich Plasma Training that fully certifies you to have the skills to out-perform your competition and support for 2-Years at no extra charge. All of this for about the same price as the unaccredited, non-transparent, large group, nurse-taught PRP training programs.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About PRP & Microneedling Training in Chicago
Is the Chicago PRP and microneedling course triple-accredited for CME credit?
Yes. The Regenerative Aesthetics™ online module included with your Chicago registration carries triple accreditation: AMA (for physicians and PAs), AANP (for nurse practitioners), and ANCC (for registered nurses). PracticalCME created the first-ever CME-accredited cosmetic PRP and microneedling training in 2014, and the curriculum has been continuously expanded with 60+ peer-reviewed references. Triple accreditation means every eligible provider type earns recognized continuing education from the same evidence-based course, which is important for professional liability insurance and medspa credentialing in Illinois.
Who teaches the Chicago PRP and microneedling certification course?
Both the online course and the live hands-on in Chicago are taught by Gregory Zengo, MD, PracticalCME’s medical director, who is licensed in Illinois. Dr. Zengo has over 22 years of aesthetic injection experience, has injected over 1.3 million units of Botox, and authored the world’s first CME-accredited PRP and microneedling curriculum in 2014. Having the same MD instructor for both your online learning and your live hands-on provides seamless continuity from theory to practice.
Where is the Chicago PRP training held, and how large are the classes?
The Chicago hands-on takes place at the AC Hotel Chicago Downtown, a convenient central location for attendees from across the Chicago metro area, the suburbs, and neighboring states like Indiana and Wisconsin. Each session has a maximum of 6 students with an average of 4, ensuring personalized MD supervision during your microneedling hands-on.
Can I add Botox and dermal filler certification on the same day in Chicago?
Yes. PracticalCME’s Chicago schedule offers Botox and dermal filler hands-on in the morning starting at 8am, followed by PRP and microneedling at 1pm, giving you up to four procedure certifications and 23 contact hours in a single Saturday. The 4-Procedure FAST TRACK® bundle includes a significant discount over registering separately, and 0% financing through Affirm is available at checkout.
What do I complete before attending the live Chicago hands-on date?
You complete the 7.75-hour ACCME-accredited streaming online course at your own pace before your Saturday hands-on. You receive instant access the moment you register, so many attendees start learning the same evening. The online module covers PRP biology, centrifugation protocols, microneedling technique, exosome therapies, patient selection, and complication management. After passing the post-test you download your first CME certificate, then earn your second hands-on certificate at the live session in Chicago with Dr. Zengo.
What hands-on procedures will I perform at the Chicago PRP and microneedling training?
At the Chicago hands-on you will perform multi-depth medical microneedling one-on-one under direct MD supervision from Dr. Zengo. Because the Chicago course is held at the AC Hotel Downtown rather than a clinical office, PRP cannot be spun on-site. However, Dr. Zengo will walk you through full PRP treatment planning, injection mapping, and case design so you are fully prepared to perform PRP treatments in your own practice. PRP preparation and injection technique are covered in depth during the online course you complete before attending.
Our training in Cosmetic PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) debuted in 2014 and was the first CME approved certification course ever. Because over 60 live links to the primary literature, treatment videos and customizable consent forms, support the online FAST TRACK curriculum, the course will prepare you to offer this exciting new procedure to your patients. Then, at the live hands-on training date for PRP, you will dive deeper into indications and patient selection for the procedure and perform a variable-depth microneedling treatment on your patient with one-on-one, MD supervision.

- First, All MD Faculty with at least 10 years’ experience
- Maximum of 5 Participants per live hands-on class with an average class size of 4
- One-on-One Supervised Injection or Microneedling treatment of your own Patient
- Complete Post-Training Support (email contact, customizable consent forms)
Why are Chicago PRP Training PracticalCME Graduates More Successful?
Our PRP Training Course focuses on customizing the treatment plan to the patient’s own needs, and never follows a “cookbook” approach. For example, we teach proper activation of PRP and patient assessment so you can truly isolate the true cause of the patient’s wrinkles and effectively stop the clock on their aging process even on your first few patients, without having to see the patient back for touch-up treatments. The online course material drills these techniques home with additional treatment videos demonstrating the best technique prior to your live hands-on training class.
As a result, PracticalCME has heard from many RN’s who took our training and taught their supervising physicians a few things upon return to the office.

Each live date is limited to 6 participants before it is marked SOLD OUT. In fact, PracticalCME has only around 100 live training seats in Platelet Rich Plasma Training annually.

This is why so many people travel to experience our small-group, in-depth blended online + live certification. Therefore, if the next Atlanta live training is sold out, scroll down and register now for the next open date. Then, you will receive your online content and can still begin learning and earning your first certification tonight.
