Workshop Prerequisites

Preparing for the Complete Botox® Training program is essential. The good news is we supply all prerequisite instructional materials as part of the course. Upon signing up, you gain access to Empire Medical Training's state-of-the-art online portal. This portal includes a detailed color training manual and professionally produced videos.

Detailed protocols, complication avoidance, and more are covered in the prerequisite materials. Along with needing to cover these instructional materials, you will be required to pass a short knowledge test. Once these two aspects are successfully completed, you will gain your 8-hour AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ certification.

There's also the opportunity to complete a live virtual training session beforehand. By taking this approach, you can reduce the in-person work you need to complete.

• Key characteristics and handling (including dilution, reconstitution, and storage) of botulinum toxin Type-A products
• Important facial anatomy concepts, including zones of adherence, facial contraindications, and correcting complications and adverse events

Additional Aesthetic Procedures and Advanced Injection Techniques

The Orlando Complete Botox® Training program not only teaches participants about Botox but also has a particular focus on performing other well-known facial aesthetic treatments like dermal fillers. By broadening your education this way, your practice can be more diverse in the aesthetic services you offer to patients.

The event and its three workshops – Complete Botox Training, Dermal Filler, and Facial Aesthetics – have been designed with the utmost attention to detail. By meeting the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education’s demands and policies, our program is able to offer the education and accreditations you require.

For instance, the Medication Education Resources, an ACCME-accredited organization, award the 8.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ as part of our Orlando training. The MER is committed to the training and education of healthcare professionals. By working together with the MER, this ensures our program is at its best possible standard – and you directly benefit as a result.

For nurses, there's another added bonus from completing our program. Due to partnering with the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation, you can gain 8.0 contact hours to go towards your nursing education. These hours are provided following the completion of our program.
