FAQ

PRP Training FAQ for Registered Nurses

Common questions about PRP training for registered nurses.

Yes, in most states. Registered nurses can perform PRP injections as delegated medical tasks under the direct supervision of a physician (and in some states, an NP or PA). RNs commonly work as aesthetic injectors in medical spas, dermatology practices, and plastic surgery offices. Always verify your specific state nursing board regulations.
Our PRP Training Course is completed in just 1 day. You'll receive your Certificate of Completion immediately after successfully finishing the hands-on training and didactic components. With your certificate and a supervising provider, you can begin performing PRP procedures.
Most states require direct physician supervision for RNs performing PRP injections, meaning a physician must be physically present on-site and available during procedures. Some states allow NPs or PAs with prescriptive authority to supervise RNs for delegated aesthetic procedures. Our course covers state-specific requirements.
Aesthetic nurses with injection skills including PRP are highly valued and well compensated. Salaries typically range from $80,000-150,000+ annually, significantly higher than traditional hospital nursing. Many medical spas and practices also offer production bonuses based on procedure volume, which can substantially increase total compensation.
Yes. AAOPM is accredited by the ACCME (Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education). This PRP course is approved for 6.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits, which are accepted by most state nursing boards for continuing education requirements.
While PRP is an excellent starting point, most aesthetic nursing positions also require Botox and dermal filler training. AAOPM offers comprehensive training in all these areas. Many nurses complete multiple courses to become well-rounded aesthetic injectors, making themselves more marketable and able to offer patients complete treatment options.
