How much training and experience is enough to be a safe, competent injector? This week, AmSpa founder and CEO, Alex R. Thiersch, JD, speaks with Michelle Doran, MSN, APRN, BC, CANS, co-founder of RN Esthetics and faculty for the Academy for Injection Anatomy (AIA).

  • What drove her to switch from palliative care to medical aesthetics;
  • Her first aesthetic education, early mentorship, and path to training;
  • The types of aesthetic training courses she invests in year after year;
  • Why she finds it important to hire nurses with real world experience;
  • Taking the AIA cadaver course and how she became a faculty member;
  • Essential anatomy training and learning to manage complications;
  • Her decision to partner with Alpha Aesthetics Partners.
  • The Academy for Injection Anatomy trains injectors to be safe, competent and legally compliant.
