How Do You Qualify as a Botox/Injectables Technician?

In California, one has to be a doctor or an nurse to legally inject Botox.  You can't get qualified to inject Botox unless you are licensed by the state with either a RN or MD degree.  RN's who inject Botox work under the supervision of a doctor.

Thank you for your question MissHolly. I understand your concern. Botox is a purified protein
used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. When injected into
the skin Botox will relax the muscles and smoothen out the overlying wrinkles. The
most common areas of treatment are in the upper face. These include the
horizontal lines seen on the upper forehead when one raises the brows, the
vertical lines seen between the brows when one frowns (frown lines), and the
crow's feet seen around the eyes when one smiles.
Botox is a prescription strength medication that
is injected into the skin or other areas. Therefore, it is important that the
treatment is performed by a trained medical professional. This can be a
physician, physician’s assistant, nurse practitioner, or nurse. Laws vary from
jurisdiction to jurisdiction on who is allowed to provide the treatment. In
California, for example, any of these aforementioned medical professional is
permitted to provide a treatment. With the recent explosion of cosmetic
medicine, there are more and more people offering such services. This includes
core physicians such as plastic surgeons and dermatologists as well as other
physicians who are trained in cosmetic treatments such as general physicians,
gynecologists, or other specialists.
