For licensed physician assistants
As a Physician Assistant (PA), you already have a foundation in patient assessment, clinical decision-making, and treatment planning. Transitioning into aesthetic medicine means applying those skills to facial anatomy, injectable treatments, and patient safety.
At Injector Training Academy (ITA), our Botox and dermal filler training for physician assistants combines structured education with private, one-on-one clinical instruction. Whether you’re new to aesthetics or expanding your clinical skills, we offer training pathways designed around practical experience.
Every PA enters aesthetic medicine with different goals. Some want foundational injection training, while others prefer extended clinical experience before pursuing aesthetic opportunities. ITA offers two programs for eligible licensed healthcare professionals.
Online course + private hands-on day
$3,000
Payment options: CareCredit, Cherry and Alphaeon
12 weeks + unlimited shadowing
$9,000
Payment options: CareCredit, Cherry, Alphaeon and an in-house plan
Our Injector Certification Program combines self-paced online education with a private hands-on clinical training day.
Training includes facial anatomy, product selection, patient assessment, injection techniques, treatment planning, and complication management.
Upon successful completion, participants receive an official Certificate of Completion documenting both the online and hands-on components.
For PAs seeking more extensive clinical experience, ITA offers a structured 12-week Aesthetic Injector Internship.
The internship also includes anatomy and assessment education, treatment consultations, product rheology, safety protocols, and career-readiness support. Participants receive lifelong mentorship, along with marketing, social media, resume, and job assistance.
This pathway is designed for healthcare professionals who want additional clinical exposure and ongoing support as they develop their aesthetic injection skills.
Yes. Physician Assistants may perform cosmetic injectable procedures in Texas when those services fall within their education, training, and experience and are appropriately delegated and supervised by a physician.
However, completing a Botox training course does not independently authorize a PA to administer cosmetic injections.
The Texas Medical Board considers nonsurgical medical cosmetic procedures, including cosmetic injections, to be medical acts. Applicable supervision and delegation requirements must be followed.
For PAs planning to practice aesthetics, the supervising physician relationship and relevant practice arrangements should address the injectable services being performed, patient evaluation, treatment protocols, complication management, and emergency access.
Texas rules also require appropriate physician availability and oversight. A physician’s constant physical presence is not necessarily required, but adequate supervision remains essential.
Before offering injectable treatments, confirm that your professional responsibilities, physician supervision, and delegation arrangements comply with current Texas requirements.

Physician Assistants often enter aesthetic medicine with experience in medical assessment and patient care, but cosmetic injections introduce new procedural techniques and treatment-planning considerations.
ITA’s private, one-on-one hands-on instruction gives you the opportunity to ask questions, receive individualized guidance, and practice injection techniques under the supervision of an experienced trainer.
The Certification Program includes one private clinical day, while the Internship provides additional practice and shadowing over 12 weeks. Both pathways emphasize applying clinical knowledge to aesthetic procedures while maintaining a focus on patient safety.
After successfully completing ITA’s Injector Certification Program, you’ll receive an official Certificate of Completion recognizing your online education and hands-on clinical training.
This certificate documents your training. It does not change your professional license, expand your legal scope of practice, or replace physician supervision and delegation requirements.
ITA’s programs don’t currently award CE or CME credits.
Physician Assistants should independently verify applicable professional and regulatory requirements before offering aesthetic injection services.

The Injector Certification Program costs $3,000, with payment options through CareCredit, Cherry, and Alphaeon. The 12-week Aesthetic Injector Internship costs $9,000, with CareCredit, Cherry, Alphaeon, and an in-house payment plan available.
Financing is subject to eligibility, approval, and applicable terms.
Yes, provided the PA has appropriate education and training and performs the procedure under applicable physician delegation and supervision requirements. Completing an injector training course alone does not authorize independent cosmetic injection practice.
Your cosmetic injection activities must fall within your authorized professional role and applicable physician supervision and delegation arrangements. Before treating patients, confirm that your supervising physician and practice have established the necessary authorization, protocols, and oversight.
ITA offers flexible scheduling options. The Certification Program includes approximately 6 hours of self-paced online education and one private hands-on clinical day. The Internship requires a greater time commitment, with 12 weeks of structured training and more than 80 hours of hands-on experience. Speak with our training team to discuss scheduling availability.
No. ITA’s programs don’t currently award CE or CME credits. The Injector Certification Program provides a Certificate of Completion, which documents your training but is not a substitute for professional licensure or continuing medical education requirements.
ITA’s Injector Certification Program costs $3,000, while the Aesthetic Injector Internship costs $9,000. Both programs include supervised hands-on training, but the Internship provides substantially more clinical exposure, shadowing, and mentorship. Payment options are available through approved financing providers.
Yes. The Certification Program is designed to help eligible licensed healthcare professionals build foundational knowledge and practical injection skills. PAs seeking additional hands-on experience may also consider the 12-week Internship.
Moving into aesthetic medicine requires more than learning where to place an injection. It involves understanding facial anatomy, assessing patients, selecting appropriate treatments, recognizing complications, and working within your professional scope of practice.
At Injector Training Academy, our Botox and filler training for Physician Assistants combines structured education with private, one-on-one clinical instruction. Whether you choose the $3,000 Injector Certification Program or the $9,000 Aesthetic Injector Internship, our team can help you explore a training pathway aligned with your goals and schedule.
