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). They chat about her personal training journey in medical aesthetics, the importance of clinical education in facial anatomy, and what to look for when hiring a provider. Their conversation includes:

  • 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.
