Well-rounded Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialists can blend their esthetics and nursing licenses in order to administer facial injections (i.e., Botox, Dysport and other neurotransmitters, and fillers like Juvederm, Sculptra, Radiesse, and Restalyne).
Aesthetic nurses often help plastic surgeons and dermatologists with cosmetic surgery, provide pre-and post-operative care, and medically screening patients before procedures.
