During this period, the physician or nurse must demonstrate both their technical and theoretical knowledge of aesthetic medicine by performing treatments under the guidance and supervision of an experienced and board-certified medical professional.

This allows the supervising physician to ensure that they possess proficiency in all injection techniques, RF technology applications, laser treatments, skin care regimens, as well as other pertinent procedures used in aesthetic medicine.
