Botox injector qualifications

Peter A. Aldea, MD answers: Who is qualified to inject Botox?

I'm thinking about getting Botox injections in my forehead but I don't know what qualifications/education pratitioners need to do Botox injections.

Although ANYBODY with a medical license or "supervised" (even "off site") by anyone with a medical license CAN inject Botox, I would NOT have them treat me, my family or friends.

For the best possible results, insist on having a Plastic Surgeon, ENT or Dermatologist personally inject YOUR Botox. There is NO substitute for experience.

Although I could delegate it, in my practice I administer Botox and very much enjoy doing it.
