    By maintaining these strict eligibility requirements, ESI ensures a high-level professional environment focused on clinical excellence and patient safety.

  • Are ESI medical esthetics courses CME/CE accredited?

    Yes. Esthetic Skin Institute (ESI) training programs are nationally accredited and offer CME (Continuing Medical Education) and CE (Continuing Education) credits. 


    Our accreditation serves as a gold standard for quality, ensuring that our curriculum meets the rigorous educational requirements of state boards and medical associations across the United States.

  • Where are ESI’s training centers located?

    ESI operates a robust network of training facilities across the country to provide convenient access to professional education. Our primary clinical hubs are located in:


    • Fort Lauderdale, FL (National Headquarters)
    • Boston, MA
    • Chicago, IL
    • Atlanta, GA
    • New York City, NY

    In addition to these key markets, we offer satellite training sessions in various cities nationwide to support our students' regional needs.


  • Do your courses include hands-on training with live models?

    Absolutely. The cornerstone of the ESI educational model is intensive hands-on clinical training. Unlike online-only programs, our students work directly with live models under the close supervision of expert instructors. 


    This practical experience is vital for mastering the precision required for Botox, Dermal Fillers, and PDO Thread techniques.


  • How do I register for a Botox or Dermal Filler certification class?

    Registering for a course is a seamless process through our national portal. 


    You can view our current nationwide schedule and secure your seat by visiting our [Registration & Course Schedule Page]. 


    Whether you are looking for a local class in Florida or a session in the Northeast, our streamlined system allows you to complete your enrollment and prepare for your certification in just a few clicks.

  • What will each attendee receive upon completion of the course?

    Each attendee will receive a course manual, PP slide deck, a dropbox link loaded with supporting forms and templates of practice documents such as consents, standardized procedure and protocol policies, purchasing sources, procedure video, and more.


     A certification of hands-on training will be provided upon completion of the course (mailed within 2 weeks).

  • What is your cancellation policy?

    Cancellation policy must be strictly enforced since workshops require much planning, preparation, and resources.


    Refunds will be processed less a 250.00 processing fee if cancellation occurs at least 14 days before the workshop begins. 


    Cancellations made within 14 days of the start date are not eligible for a refund but may be credited toward a future workshop (valid for 12 months), and subject to approval by the administrative department of ESI. Rescheduling is allowed up to two times during the 12-month period.


    Since a minimum number of registrants is necessary for each course, and if we do not meet this minimum, or for any other reason beyond our control the course is canceled or postponed, the registration fee will be refunded in full. 


    ESI is not responsible for deposits to hotels, non-refundable airline tickets or fees associated with necessary airline changes. 


    Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation with the cancellation policy.
