2020 Aesthetic Continuing Education

I have always been a firm believer in continuing education, even though there are requirements to keep my license valid as a board-certified family nurse practitioner there aren’t many requirements in the world of aesthetics. Continuing education allows me to stay current on technologies, advanced techniques, and skill development. 2020 certainly was a challenge for all of us, instead of feeling defeated by the many obstacles I took full advantage of my time and was able to complete numerous education opportunities. Listed below are many of those opportunities:
