How much hands-on training will I get in a medical aesthetics training course?
The amount of hand-on training you receive depends on the number of participants as well as the number of models present and their specific needs. Although The Aesthetics Institute cannot guarantee a specific number of injections during Botox and other training courses, the interactive portion of the seminar is where The Aesthetics Institute gets its highest reviews. Our participants are extremely pleased with their “hands-on” experiences.
What is the deadline for training course registration?
There are no deadlines for registration, but classes are filled on a first come, first served basis. Some classes, like our Botox training course, fill up well in advance, so it is advised to register as soon as possible. Participant spots are reserved upon receipt of payment.
How large are the medical aesthetic certification classes?
The Aesthetics Institute training class size is limited to 10 participants to maximize one-on-one time with the instructor.
What are the instructor’s credentials?
All of our instructors are independent contractors who perform these procedures in their own practice. Instructors include Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants with varying backgrounds (family practice, internal medicine, dermatology, etc). If you want specific information about an instructor, please determine the class and time/date you’d like to attend first. Then you can simply call The Aesthetics Institute for more details. We’re always happy to assist!
Are there certification requirements?
There are no national requirements for certification, but medical professionals should check with their malpractice carrier to determine if they have specific requirements. If a participant is having difficulty with their malpractice carrier, they may contact The Aesthetics Institute for a list of insurance brokers that specialize in the field of aesthetics.
