Any MD, DO, RN, NP, or PA with an active medical license in any US state.
One-on-One Small Group Botox® Training for Physicians and Nurses with Dermal Filler Hands-On Training.
Nurses, why are you looking at other Botox Injector Training courses that have huge class sizes, unknown faculty and location information, and no learning content prior to the live date? Instead, PracticalCME guarantees the best small group Botox Injector Training environment where you learn from physicians who have started successful practices and have supervised and trained their Botox Injector Nurses in the past. Therefore, they know what is expected of a new nurse in the field and will make sure you are ready on day one after your training.
Moreover, our MD instructors average 10 years of experience, your semi-private hands-on experience is second to none. You get 20 units (or more) of Botox and 1cc of Juvederm Ultra to inject on your own hands-on patient at no additional charge. In addition, PracticalCME never charges you for gloves and syringes used in hands-on. We provide everything for a great hands-on experience.
11 AMA Cat. 1 level CME credits with Dual Certification
Since our courses are backed by the gold standard in CME certification, you can rest assured that you are receiving the best training with no sponsorship or bias whatsoever.
