Regardless of your state, the laws being different from state to state, do you want a nurse to inject your Botox or trust a physician who may understand the anatomy better? This is a theoretical question. There is no doubt that experience is important and there are some nurses who may inject Botox with more consistent results than some doctors depending on their skills, experience and specialty.
In California nurses can inject botox and fillers at a Medical Spa as long as they have oversight of a Medical director. The Medical director takes medical liability so you can be assured the RN's are trained appropriately. Laws are different in every state
In Minnesota MediSpas must be owned by Physicians in order to administer prescription medications, including Botox or Juvederm.
In Florida, RN's are unable to inject botox. Based of a review online, Maine is more silent on the subject so you will need to contact the Medical Board in Maine to clarify its guidelines.
In NY, a nurse can only inject botox under the direct supervision of a medical doctor. As for Maine, I have no idea.
