Browse CoursesWho Should Attend
Our hands-on aesthetic courses in New York are designed for licensed healthcare providers at every stage of their career.
Expand your clinical skills into aesthetics. Botox and filler certification opens high-demand career paths in med spas and dermatology clinics.
Leverage your advanced practice license. NPs can often practice aesthetics independently, making injectable training an ideal business opportunity.
Add aesthetic procedures to your practice. PA training in Botox and dermal fillers is one of the fastest-growing specializations in medicine.
Master advanced techniques and diversify your revenue. From neurotoxins to PDO threads, aesthetic medicine offers physicians significant income potential.
Your expertise in facial anatomy gives you a head start. Botox training helps dentists treat TMJ, bruxism, and expand into cosmetic injectables.
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
New York allows licensed physicians (MDs and DOs), dentists, nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), and registered nurses (RNs) to perform aesthetic injectable procedures, including botox and dermal filler treatments, within their established scope of practice.
New York is classified as a reduced practice state for nurse practitioners. NPs must maintain a collaborative agreement with a physician in order to practice, which includes performing injectable aesthetic procedures. These practice requirements are governed by the New York State Education Department (NYSED) through the Office of the Professions. Physician assistants must also practice under physician supervision. Registered nurses in New York may administer botox, dermal fillers, and other aesthetic injectables only under the direct delegation and supervision of a licensed physician, and cannot perform these procedures independently.
All practitioners performing aesthetic treatments in New York should verify their scope of practice with NYSED and complete comprehensive training, such as Empire Medical Training's CME-accredited certification courses, before providing injectable aesthetic services to patients.

Weekend intensive programs are also available for providers who want to combine botox training with dermal fillers or other aesthetic procedures into a comprehensive multi-day training experience. Online didactic components can be completed at your own pace before the hands-on session.
Absolutely. Botox certification is one of the most valuable credentials a nurse can add in New York. The demand for aesthetic treatments continues to grow, and certified botox injectors are in high demand at med spas, dermatology clinics, and plastic surgery practices throughout the state. Nurses with botox certification can significantly increase their earning potential — many aesthetic nurses earn $80,000 to $150,000 or more annually. The certification also opens doors to career advancement, greater autonomy in clinical settings, and the potential to work in specialized aesthetic roles.
Yes, you must hold a valid healthcare license to inject botox in New York. Eligible providers include physicians (MDs and DOs), dentists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses. New York has reduced practice authority for nurse practitioners, requiring a collaborative agreement with a physician. RNs typically must administer botox under the delegation and supervision of a physician or qualified advanced practice provider. Proper training and certification — such as Empire Medical Training's CME-accredited botox courses — are essential for safe practice and professional credibility.
Botox training refers to the educational process of learning injection techniques, facial anatomy, patient assessment, and complication management. Certification is the formal credential you receive upon successfully completing an accredited training program. Empire Medical Training's botox courses in New York combine both — you receive comprehensive hands-on training with live patients under physician supervision, along with a nationally recognized certification and CME (Continuing Medical Education) credits upon completion. The certification validates your competency and is recognized by employers, insurance companies, and patients as proof of your professional training in aesthetic injectables.
Botox injectors in New York can earn between $80,000 and $150,000 or more annually, depending on their practice setting, experience level, and patient volume. Providers working in busy med spas or aesthetic clinics often earn at the higher end of this range, especially when performing a combination of botox, dermal fillers, and other aesthetic treatments. Some injectors in New York who build their own clientele or open independent practices earn well above $150,000 per year. Adding aesthetic services to an existing medical practice can also generate significant additional revenue.
