The Aesthetics 101 programs (Hybrid and Virtual) are comprehensive certification courses covering Botox, dermal fillers, and chemical peels in a single enrollment. BTX CERT is the right choice for practitioners who want to specialize in neurotoxins specifically, or who are already certified in fillers and simply need Botox certification.
