The Benefits of Being an Aesthetic Nurse Injector
Becoming an aesthetic nurse injector can open up a wide range of career opportunities. As an injector, you’ll be able to administer Botox and dermal fillers as well as other non-surgical treatments. With the right training and certification, you may own your very own med spa one day! But first, let’s take a look at some of the benefits of becoming an aesthetic nurse injector:
• Flexible work schedule – You’ll have the freedom to set your own hours and work with clients whenever it’s convenient for them.
• Job security – The demand for aesthetic injectors is not going anywhere, meaning job security is guaranteed.
• Financial stability – You’ll be able to make a steady income by offering injectable treatments to clients.
• Professional development – You’ll constantly be learning and gaining experience in the field as new technologies and trends arise.
So How Do You Become an Aesthetic Nurse Injector?
The first step is getting certified through a medspa education program like MAE. Many programs offer hands-on training and certification so that you’re prepared to offer injectable treatments safely and effectively. These programs will teach you how to select the right products, understand facial anatomy, use the right injection techniques, and much more.
By completing a certification program, you’ll be able to build your confidence as a nurse injector and become certified in your field. Once certified, you’ll have the opportunity to work as a nurse injector or even own your own med spa.
Making It On Your Own in the Med Spa Industry
Once you’ve completed your training, you can start offering aesthetic services. Talented and educated injectors are in high demand in the medical and aesthetics industries, and chances are you will be scooped up before you know what's what. But, if there is a small entrepreneurial spark in you, chances are you may just be thinking about opening up your OWN medspa. And, speaking from experience, owning a MedSpa is a beast of a challenge! However, if you've got the determination there is nothing that can stand in your way.
When you own your own med spa, you’re in control of how you want to run your business, allowing you to be flexible as you want and the profits aren't too bad either. In Texas, only physicians are allowed to own a med spa business. If you're not a physician and don't want to go through extra years of school there are other options available. Many nurse injectors choose to contract out their services to various businesses in their area. this allows them the flexibility of making their own schedule and the profits can more than makeup for the lack of a permanent location.
If you do choose to own and operate your own medspa, the benefits can be well worth it! We can (and probably will!) write an entire blog on the ups and downs of owning your own medspa. But, the most important thing to keep in mind is forming and maintaining long-lasting relationships with your clients and community which will keep the lights on and doors open. When your clients are looking and feeling their best, chances are your business is alive and thriving. What could be better?
