Can a medical esthetician administer/ inject dermal fillers, in New York?

Laulexmay I ask a question? Who would you prefer injecting anything into your face, a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist with years of experience and intimate knowledge of the anatomy of the face, or nurse or technician? Some clinics allow technicians or nurses to do the injection, but I prefer to do all injections myself, I sleep better at night!

an aesthetician is not licensed to inject dermal fillers.  Please consult with a board certified dermatologist with years of experience with injecting fillers and Botox for the safest and best cosmetic results. 

Injection of dermal fillers is a medical procedure and carries with it serious risks. It is usually done in a clean environment under sterile conditions. Medical aestheticians cannot inject fillers. In Australia, Botox and Fillers are Schedule Drugs and should be prescribed by a Medical doctor. They can be injected by RN's under the supervision of a Doctor. 

Only a licensed individual can perform injections in NY.  We are aware that various spas are offering these services as are dentists in flagrant violation of the law. if you are going to have fillers or Botox, see a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist.

Aestheticians cannot inject dermal fillers. Administering injections of any type is a medical procedure that can only be done by medical professionals that are licensed to do so.
