  • While our standard courses offer a structured blend of classroom instruction, live demonstrations, and hands-on practice, an Observational Immersion provides a unique, real-world experience.

    Standard Courses:

    - Didactic instruction for theoretical understanding

    - Live injection demonstrations by instructors

    - Hands-on practice on live models, supervised by instructors

    Observational Immersion:

    -Shadow an InjectionU instructor during a typical workday at Skin by Lovely, our sister institution.

    - Gain insight into the day-to-day operations of a top-ranked aesthetics practice.

    - Observe real patient-provider interactions, including consultation and treatment planning.

    - Watch the instructor manage patient comfort during treatments.

    - Exposure to the nuanced skills and best practices that contribute to a successful aesthetics practice.

    In summary, an Observational Immersion allows you to absorb the subtle aspects of real-world practice, enriching your understanding of the field far beyond what can be taught in a traditional classroom setting.

  • Completing our courses equips you with the training and skills to administer neurotoxins and dermal fillers, but there are specific state regulations you must also consider.

    In Oregon, for example, Registered Nurses (RNs) can perform these medical procedures, but only under the direct supervision of a Medical Director. Because neurotoxins and dermal fillers are considered prescription medications (RX), patients must be cleared for treatment by a licensed medical provider. The Medical Director must have a current State of Oregon medical license, which can be either an MD, DO, or NP, and must comply with the rules set forth by the Oregon Medical Board.

    So, while our training courses provide you with the hands-on experience and technical knowledge, it's crucial to be aware of and comply with your state's specific licensure and supervisory requirements to practice independently.

  • Great question! 😊 While InjectionU is focused on training and education, we are a sister company to Skin by Lovely, which handles its own hiring process. If you're interested in joining their team, we recommend applying online at Skin by Lovely Careers or emailing jobs@skinbylovely.com for more information.

  • We don't have set deadlines for course registration; however, our classes operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Popular courses, such as Beginner Neurotoxins, often fill up quickly.
