Delegated Aesthetic Procedures
Registered nurses can perform PDO thread lifts in most states as a delegated medical procedure under physician supervision. Your nursing education provides a strong foundation in patient assessment, injection techniques, sterile technique, and complication recognition. With proper training and physician oversight, RNs are valuable members of aesthetic teams performing thread lifting procedures.
