What Training Do You Need to Inject Botox in Colorado?

Colorado doesn't hand the syringe to just anyone. Here's the license, the training, and the supervision that Colorado expects before you can inject.

By Evan at Inside MedSpa

Training & certification expected

No state-mandated injector training beyond licensure.

The license that lets you inject

MD, DO, NP, PA, RN under physician supervision or delegation

If you’re an RN

Yes, under physician delegation; supervision model varies—may be on-site or remote depending on board interpretation

Why the order still matters

Required; in-person or telehealth allowed under certain conditions Training gets you the skill; a valid order or good-faith exam is what keeps the treatment lawful.

What to verify in Colorado

Establish written physician delegation agreement and confirm medical director availability; clarify telehealth GFE policy with the Colorado Medical Board before implementing.
