Only board-certified medical professionals, registered nurses, or physician assistants can administer BOTOX. To avoid the risks of a poor outcome, ensure your injections are performed by a qualified, certified professional. Training courses and certification in BOTOX administration is an added step for providers who are committed to delivering a superior outcome – like our team at Avalon Laser.
Registered nurses
Most registered nurses have completed a minimum of four years at accredited universities to obtain a bachelor’s degree in nursing. To become an RN, they must pass the National Council Licensure Examination, Registered Nurse (NCLEX)after earning their degree. They must also fulfill any additional requirements mandated by the state.
Some nursing programs offer experience in cosmetic procedures or areas relevant to aesthetic nursing. Knowledge administering BOTOX can be gained by working with a licensed medical doctor or providing injection services at a medical spa. At Avalon Laser, our RNs have completed additional training in BOTOX, dermal fillers, and laser treatments.
Medical doctors
It is essential that your BOTOX injections are under the supervision of a certified medical professional. Dr. Tirgari, our founder, is certified in aesthetic medicine and is a licensed physician. His experience in the field of aesthetics is above and beyond many practitioners.
BOTOX certification by the makers of BOTOX
Continuing education and professional development courses are offered by the manufacturers of the products that we deliver. For BOTOX injections, our team members are trained and certified by Allergan, the makers of BOTOX. This training has provided us with a more in-depth insight into the product, how it works, and the best techniques for injections. There is a reason that BOTOX must be injected by a medical doctor, registered nurse, or physician’s assistant under the supervision of a medical doctor in California:
- Greater safety for patients
- More effective treatment
