Can a Dental Hygienist Give Botox Injections?

sgreen67
I have been a California RDH for 6 years and I am considering a change of career due to some burnout! I would like to know, if I were to get my esthetician's license would I be able to perform Botox treatments under a physicians supervision? I have my LA license and have obviously had extensive head and neck anatomy classes.
