Should you train on both Tox and Dermal Filler at the same time? 5 reasons why taking a course that offers both could be good for you!
The aesthetics field is exploding. Botox, Restylane and Juvaderm dermal filler treatments are becoming as mainstream as getting a manicure. People want to age gracefully and the secret of injectables is out! In response, providers such as NPs and APRNs are entering the aesthetics field at higher numbers to meet this demand and interest. If you’re someone who is interested in entering into aesthetics, you’re probably asking yourself–where do I start?
At Injectables EDU, our trainers teach courses all over the nation, so we get this question a LOT. We offer it all (check out our training courses here), but let’s talk about the great debate…
Should you train on both dermal fillers and tox at the same time?
I’m going to make a case that you should consider learning to do both.
We’ll discuss the big benefits of providing comprehensive aesthetic injectables care, why combining the two is a more profitable venture, and how it can help you see instant results that will feel professionally fulfilling.
And, for what it’s worth, it’s also way more fun to do fillers. See #3 below.
1. You’ll be able to provide comprehensive care
When you learn to inject both neurotoxins and dermal fillers, you will be able to provide comprehensive care for your clients. Botox and dermal fillers have totally different use cases. Neuromodulators such as Botox can relax facial muscles and reduce the appearance of wrinkles caused by facial expressions. On the other hand, dermal fillers can restore volume and plumpness to specific areas of the face, such as the cheeks, lips, and under-eye hollows.
By combining both treatments, you can offer your clients a more complete facial rejuvenation experience, resulting in a more satisfied customer base and a positive reputation for your practice. Think about it this way–if you have a patient who already LOVES you for doing their tox, but they also want their lips done, they’re going to want YOU! Don’t send them away to another provider because you don’t offer the service. You want to serve their injectables needs, not be a lead generator for another practice.
2. You’ll have a more profitable venture
And that’s the goal, right? We talked about how there are different advantages for neurotoxins and dermal fillers, and there are some clients who might require both for optimal results. By offering both these treatments, you can meet the specific needs of a broader range of clients, resulting in more revenue and increased success for your practice. The most important part? The margins on the right fillers can be FAR superior than just injecting tox. Pocket more dough and make your patients feel instantly awesome? Sounds like a win-win to us.
3. You’ll have greater professional fulfillment
One of the most rewarding aspects of being an aesthetic injectables provider is seeing the instant results of your work. Dermal fillers, in particular, can provide immediate improvement in facial volume, leading to a dramatic transformation in the client’s appearance. Hello before and after images! By learning to inject dermal fillers, you can experience the joy of seeing your client’s satisfaction and the way their confidence grows instantaneously.
Furthermore, being able to provide comprehensive care can also boost your professional fulfillment, as it allows you to tailor treatments to clients’ specific needs, resulting in better outcomes.
You’ll be able to offer a pretty amazing gift–there is nothing like the moment when a client looks in the mirror and is THRILLED because you’ve made their outside look exactly how their insides feel. It’s pure magic.
4. You’ll know about all the injectable modalities becoming an expert in your community
It’s important to note that learning to inject both Tox and Dermal Filler requires proper education and training. As an advanced practice nurse, you already possess an extensive knowledge of the human anatomy and physiologic systems, which is a great foundation.
However, you need specialized training to develop safe and effective injection techniques. Proper training and education can also ensure that you understand the potential side effects and complications of these treatments, as well as how to manage them if they occur.
So many classes only go skin deep – pardon the pun 😉 They teach to the lowest trained professional in the room. At Injectables EDU, we specialize in training APRNs and therefore train to the independent provider ability level. That means diving into the details and really understanding the who, why, what, and how of what we are doing so you can deliver both SAFE and beautiful results.
5. You’ll have room to grow
Finally, in the rapidly evolving field of aesthetic injectables, it’s crucial to keep up-to-date with the latest advances and trends. Being able to do tox and fillers means that you’ll be in the best position to grow your skills and incorporate new products and techniques into your practice. This will enable you to stay competitive in the market and meet the growing demands for aesthetic injectables.

However, as with any medical procedure, it’s essential to get proper training and education to provide safe and effective care to your clients. By doing so, you can launch a successful and fulfilling career in aesthetic injectables.
