Frequently Asked Questions: PracticalCME Botox and Dermal Filler Training in West Palm Beach / South Florida
Clear answers on venue, format, faculty, curriculum, credit hours (including nursing pharmacology), scope of practice, and logistics. For the full positioning, see the Botox and Filler training hub page.
Where is the South Florida training venue located?
The PracticalCME South Florida clinical training site is at Vinas MD Aesthetics, 1347 S State Road 7, Building 3 STE 202, Wellington, FL 33414, inside Dr. Marisa Viñas’s practice. The venue is approximately 20 minutes from Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), one hour from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International (FLL), and roughly 90 minutes from Miami International Airport (MIA). The site serves aesthetic clinicians across Palm Beach County, Broward County, Miami-Dade, the Treasure Coast, and the broader South Florida region. The venue is a dedicated clinical facility, not a hotel conference room.
What is the live hands-on day like at the South Florida session?
The hands-on day runs 4.5 hours. The time is spent on a brief review and Q&A, patient assessment, treatment planning for each patient on the day’s schedule, and hands-on injection on live patients under direct MD supervision. The accredited 7.25-hour online CME course is prerequisite and self-paced, so no part of the live Wellington day is spent catching up on didactic content. Every attendee performs the full workflow: anesthetic, facial prep, injection, and aftercare.
Who teaches the South Florida session?
Dr. Marisa E. Viñas, MD, Director of the PracticalCME South Florida Clinical Training Site at Vinas MD Aesthetics, personally leads the live hands-on. Dr. Viñas is board-certified in both general surgery and cosmetic surgery, licensed in Florida, and has extensive aesthetic injection experience. The underlying Botox and Dermal Filler curriculum is authored and continuously revised by Dr. Gregory P. Zengo, MD, FACOG, Founder and Medical Director of PracticalCME, who was trained in botulinum toxin by Dr. Jean Carruthers in 2001.
How many hours of CME credit is the South Florida Botox and Filler training?
11.75 total contact hours: 7.25 ACCME-accredited online CME hours (including 4.7 nursing pharmacology hours) plus a separate 4.5-hour Hands-On Certificate of Completion. Credit totals are identical at every PracticalCME city.
Does the South Florida course count for nursing pharmacology hours?
Yes. 4.7 pharmacology hours are included within the 7.25 online CME hours for both AANP (nurse practitioners) and ANCC (registered nurses). This is only possible because PracticalCME holds direct ACCME accreditation through the Global Education Group joint provider arrangement. Programs that route accreditation through AAFP, dental boards, or state society equivalence credit cannot award pharmacology hours regardless of how the certificate is worded. Nurses who have struggled to meet pharmacology hours each licensing cycle find this a significant benefit. Rolled out in 2026 after direct attendee feedback.
What is covered in the Botox curriculum at the South Florida session?
FDA-labeled indications: glabella, lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet), forehead, and platysma bands (Botox FDA-approved 2024). Dosing and handling for all 6 FDA-approved neurotoxin brands. Off-label indications well-supported in the peer-reviewed literature and included in both the online didactic and the live hands-on: masseter and lower face (DAO, mentalis), small-dose frontalis for brow balance, bunny lines, gummy smile, and low-volume reconstitution technique. Not taught by design: Trap Tox at supraphysiologic doses, Barbie Botox, and any technique whose evidence base is a viral video rather than a peer-reviewed study.
What is covered in the dermal filler curriculum?
Hands-on filler technique in South Florida: lips (volume and shape), perioral lines, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. Technique and safety instruction: needle versus cannula selection, vascular anatomy and danger zones, product selection by indication, hyaluronidase reversal, vascular occlusion protocol, and the step-by-step vision-loss response algorithm. Not taught by design: mid-face filler, chin and jaw projection with HA, and high-volume cheek sculpting. The decision to keep mid-face out of the curriculum is deliberate and based on 24 years of injection experience.
How much toxin and filler is included for hands-on practice?
Every South Florida attendee receives a guaranteed 20 units of BTX-A and 1cc of hyaluronic acid filler for live injection practice at no additional charge. The product is included in tuition and dispensed on the day of the hands-on.
Can I bring my own patients for additional hands-on?
Yes. There is no cap on hands-on if you bring your own suitable patients and purchase additional toxin and filler at below-retail rates on the day of the South Florida training. Many providers bring one or two additional patients to extend their supervised experience before performing procedures in their own practice.
How are the hands-on patients recruited and consented?
Every hands-on patient at the South Florida training is consented by Dr. Viñas as a PracticalCME patient. Attendees never pay the patient, never collect money from the patient, never sign a treatment agreement with the patient, and never carry individual liability for the hands-on treatment. The faculty MD is the treating physician on the record. PracticalCME does not use paid community models who charge the training company.
Which licensed providers can register for the South Florida training?
Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, Physicians (MD and DO), and Dentists (DDS/DMD) where their legal scope of practice allows aesthetic injection. The curriculum covers Florida-specific delegation and supervising physician requirements in detail. Florida has specific supervising physician requirements for RN and NP aesthetic injectors; attendees should review current state scope before registering. Completing a training course does not alter the legal scope of practice for the attendee’s licensure.
Can an RN or NP from another state attend the South Florida training on a compact license?
Florida is an RN compact license state, so RNs from any compact state can practice as RNs in Florida. However, an NP license is state-specific and does not travel with the compact. An NP from outside Florida attending the South Florida training should confirm their own home-state licensure for aesthetic injection before offering the procedure in their own practice. Dr. Viñas is licensed in Florida and is the treating physician on the record for all hands-on patients.
Is a payment plan available for the South Florida training?
Yes. Affirm financing is available at checkout, with rates as low as 0% APR for 6 months for qualified applicants. Longer repayment terms are available at standard APR. Tuition and the Affirm option are published on the product page. There is no sales call to find out the price and no scholarship application process. The accredited online course is accessible immediately upon purchase, and the South Florida hands-on component can be scheduled at any available date within the two-year access window.
West Palm Beach, Botox Hands-On Courses for Nurses, Physicians and Nurse Practitioners are taught by PracticalCME throughout the year. PracticalCME’s FAST TRACK ™ Online plus Live Blended learning allows participants to learn the material at home at your own pace prior to the live hands-on training date. Therefore, you will be fully confident in your knowledge, and earn your first of two CME certificates before you even attend the live South Florida class date. Then, at the live date you will experience…
- All MD Faculty with at least 10 years’ experience
- Maximum of 5 Participants per live hands-on class
- One-on-One Supervised Injection of your own Patient
- Botox ® and Juvederm ® is supplied for each attendee to use at no additional cost.
- Complete Post-Training Support (email contact, customizable consent forms)
- Optional same-day Hands-On Platelet-Rich Plasma Training
Our blended dual-certification online + live training leads the industry. As a result, PracticalCME has earned an average of 4.8 stars in reviews from actual attendees since our first blended FAST TRACK Botox Training Course was held in 2014. In addition, we have paired up our Botox and Dermal Filler Training with Cosmetic Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) so that you can certify in both at the same live training date, because we know your time is valuable.
Why are PracticalCME Trainees More Successful?
Our Botox Training Course focuses on customizing the treatment plan to the patient’s own movement, and never follows a “cookbook” approach. For example, we teach a different dilution and precise muscle identification techniques 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.
Our Dermal Filler Training Course curriculum focuses on using less product but at the proper depth to achieve the most natural filling of static folds and wrinkles of the face, in addition to the most natural lip reinflation techniques. Moreover, you will be impressed with the results when simply using the right technique and depth at your supervised hands-on treatment session. Their folds and wrinkles will disappear before your eyes while your patient remains comfortable.
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.
Add Cosmetic PRP Hands-On Training on the same live date.
Our additional 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, clinical office-setting, training date for PRP, you will dive deeper into indications and patient selection for the procedure and perform a variable-depth microneedling treatment (PRP Facial) and PRP Facelift on your patient with one-on-one, MD supervision.
Space is limited, So Register Today and Begin Learning Tonight
Each live date is limited to 4 participants before it is marked SOLD OUT. In fact, PracticalCME has only around 100 live training seats in Botox and Dermal Filler Training annually. Our award-winning, all-MD faculty take time away from their own successful practices to teach only a few times a year. This is why so many people travel to experience our small-group, in-depth blended online + live certification. Therefore, if the next West Palm Beach 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.
