Botox Training & Certification Courses in California

On the California schedule we track, most single workshops are listed at $1,999 and discounted to $1,799 when an early-registration offer is running. The combined botulinum toxin and dermal filler course is listed at $3,898, discounted to $3,398. Longer formats cost more: the Master Injector Series and the cadaver-based facial anatomy course sit between $3,399 and $3,999, and the San Diego clinical fellowship is the most expensive item on the California calendar. We do not set these prices and they change, so confirm on the provider’s calendar before registering.

Physicians (MD and DO), nurse practitioners, physician assistants, registered nurses and dentists make up the room in a California class. We can confirm eligibility for a given course on 866-261-5164. What you may then perform in California is a separate question, answered by your own board rather than by the course.

Yes. Every injectable course on the California calendar includes supervised injection on live patient models, which is the point of travelling to Los Angeles, San Francisco or San Diego rather than taking something online. Group sizes are smallest in the San Diego fellowship format.

It depends on the course. Credit counts are listed per workshop, with single-day California sessions generally in the 7 to 8 range and longer formats higher. Confirm the number for your date before you rely on it for an annual requirement.

Most of the California workshops run as half-day or full-day sessions inside a weekend block, and you receive the certificate and credit documentation that same day. The exceptions are the longer formats: the cadaver-based facial anatomy training and the San Diego clinical fellowship run across more than one day.

The course fee covers the teaching, the materials and the product used during your supervised injection practice, plus the certificate and credit documentation. Travel and accommodation are separate, though a discounted hotel rate is usually available at the Los Angeles venue.

None for the foundational workshops. Botulinum Toxin Training and Complete Dermal Filler Training start from anatomy and product knowledge. The advanced California sessions, the Master Injector Series and the San Diego fellowship expect the foundations or equivalent clinical experience first.

In California, who may inject botulinum toxin follows your licence and the Business and Professions Code, not any course certificate. Physicians work within their own scope; nurse practitioners, physician assistants and registered nurses generally inject under physician supervision and standardised procedures or a supervision agreement. California does not mandate a particular certification course, but malpractice carriers, medspa employers and credentialing committees commonly ask for documented hands-on training. Rules change and depend on your exact role, so verify your own position with the Medical Board of California, the Board of Registered Nursing or the Physician Assistant Board. Nothing here is legal advice.

Yes, and it is actually the most popular option among our students. The Combo Botulinum Toxin + Complete Dermal Filler Training course covers both modalities in a comprehensive program, and it is offered at a discounted rate compared to enrolling in each course separately. Learning both injectables together gives you a broader scope of treatment options from day one, which is advantageous because most aesthetic patients benefit from combination therapy approaches. The combo course is available at multiple California locations throughout the year.

The calendar above runs from October 2026 through June 2027 across Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego. Los Angeles carries the most dates, San Francisco runs weekend blocks roughly quarterly, and San Diego alternates clinical fellowship dates. New dates are added through the year, so call 866-261-5164 if nothing listed suits you.
