Commonly Asked FAQ's:
Who Should Attend? Requirements include individuals with RN, NP, PA, DO, MD, etc. who are interested in launching a career in cosmetic injectables. This is an introductory course that is geared towards beginners.
Is Insurance Necessary? This is an introductory course with no hands-on experience. The trainer reviews didactic with a live demonstration therefore you do not need oversight or malpractice to attend.
Disclaimer:
Body+Beauty Lab Educational Workshops are designed to be an introduction into the world of injectables for licensed nurses and physician assistants. In the state of Pennsylvania, any individual with a medical license can administer neuromodulators and fillers. However, this must occur under the supervision of a physician or medical director either directly or indirectly.
The medical director or supervising physician must determine if the nurse or physician assistant is prepared, fully trained and comfortably skilled to administer neuromodulator or fillers under his/her medical license. The nurse or physician assistant must carry their own medical malpractice insurance.
Upon the completion of this course, the certificate of attendance you will receive serves in advancing the education of injectables and does not automatically confer clinical competency. Based on your own individual experience, additional training may be required before treating actual patients.
