Who Should Attend

Aesthetic Training for Every Medical Professional

Our hands-on aesthetic courses in Los Angeles, CA are designed for licensed healthcare providers at every stage of their career.

Registered Nurses (RNs)

Expand your clinical skills into aesthetics. Botox and filler certification opens high-demand career paths in med spas and dermatology clinics.

Nurse Practitioners (NPs)

Leverage your advanced practice license. NPs can often practice aesthetics independently, making injectable training an ideal business opportunity.

Physician Assistants (PAs)

Add aesthetic procedures to your practice. PA training in Botox and dermal fillers is one of the fastest-growing specializations in medicine.

Physicians (MDs & DOs)

Master advanced techniques and diversify your revenue. From neurotoxins to PDO threads, aesthetic medicine offers physicians significant income potential.

Dentists & Oral Surgeons

Your expertise in facial anatomy gives you a head start. Botox training helps dentists treat TMJ, bruxism, and expand into cosmetic injectables.

Med Spa Owners

Train yourself and your staff. Whether launching a new med spa or upskilling your team, our certification courses provide the clinical foundation you need.

Scope of Practice

Who Can Perform Aesthetic Procedures in California?

California has specific regulations governing who can perform aesthetic injectable procedures. Licensed physicians (MDs and DOs) and dentists have full authority to perform aesthetic treatments within their scope of practice. Nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses can also perform injectable procedures under defined supervision requirements.

California is a restricted practice state for nurse practitioners. As of recent legislative updates, NPs in California are moving toward broader practice authority, but traditionally have required standardized procedures with a supervising physician for aesthetic procedures. NPs should verify their current requirements with the California Board of Registered Nursing. Physician assistants must work under physician supervision per the Medical Board of California.

Registered nurses in California may administer aesthetic injectables such as botox and dermal fillers under the direct supervision and specific order of a licensed physician or, in some cases, a nurse practitioner. California law requires that aesthetic procedures be performed in an appropriate medical setting. All practitioners should ensure they have completed accredited training — like Empire Medical Training's CME-certified programs — before performing procedures.
