Botox and Dermal Filler Training Program with Certification for Healthcare Professionals
This page provides comprehensive information about PracticalCME’s national Botox and Filler training courses, including live small-group hands-on workshops, CME-accredited certification, and eligibility for MD, DO, NP, PA, RN professionals.
CME-Accredited Botox and Filler Certification Class for Physicians, Nurses, and Practitioners
PracticalCME Medical Training has been the trusted national leader in Botox training, Botox certification, and Botox courses for medical professionals since 2008. Our programs are fully accredited for CME and are open to MD, DO, NP, PA, RN’s in all 50 states.
Every course is taught
PracticalCME’s blended learning approach combines comprehensive online modules with a focused in-person, small-group hands-on training session. This format allows you to master neuromodulator and dermal filler techniques at your own pace online, then apply them with confidence under direct physician supervision.
Since our founding, we have trained more than 3,000 licensed medical professionals nationwide, equipping them with the skills, CME credits, and certification needed to immediately integrate Botox and dermal filler services into their practice.
Moreover, all PracticalCME courses are taught by board-certified, licensed MD’s who can teach everyone. Courses taught by dentists or nurses cannot train physicians, PA”s or nurse practitioners. Don’t trust your license and career to just anyone.
Whether you’re searching for a Botox course to start offering injections or looking to add certification to expand your aesthetic practice, our programs deliver the highest standards of safety, clinical skill, and educational excellence.

Why You Should Reserve Your Seat at a PracticalCME Training Course Today
Unlike the big training classes, Practical CME is the Premium, “boutique” training catering to your individual needs. With PracticalCME…
You know the exact location and name of your experienced MD Instructor BEFORE reserving and paying. Try finding the street address or faculty with other training courses.
Learn from the best and most experienced. In our courses, you learn how to individually design a treatment, not just follow a cookbook or protocol. You also learn how to avoid complications taught by the doctors who see everyone else’s complications in their own communities.
You are GUARANTEED at least 20u Botox and 1cc Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers for your hands-on, included in your tuition fee.
Moreover, we have never cancelled a class in our 16 year history.
One last thing… we NEVER split training into “Level I, II, III” or “Basic/Advanced”. Therefore, if it is safe, works, and patients want it, you WILL learn it in our single certification course. In contrast, you can spend $4,000-8,000 and waste multiple days on levels of training to get the same knowledge.
We are here for your success, before, during and after your training.
