Can RN's in NYC give botox injections if they are certified

[Rayder16]

I am interested in becoming certified through Aesthetic Enhancement International Institute in Botox injections, but I am having difficulty finding if NY RN's can do this. Someone please let me know before I spend money on getting certified. Thank you all.

Check with the NY Board of Nursing. They should be able to tell you if it is within the scope of practice for an RN to inject. Most likely under the supervision of an MD.
