Frequently Asked Laser Questions
Q: What is a Medical Director?
A Medical Director, crucial to your clinic or med spa, is either a Nurse Practitioner or a Medical Doctor. This professional oversees your practice, ensuring adherence to the scope of practice. Their license number is used to obtain insurance, specifically professional liability insurance, safeguarding both you and your clients. Throughout our classes, we delve into the advantages and considerations of having a Nurse Practitioner versus a Medical Doctor as your Medical Director.
Q: Who can perform LASER procedures?
In the state of Idaho, LASER procedures can be performed by anyone under the oversight of a Medical Director. This flexibility allows a Medical Director to delegate LASER responsibilities to individuals with diverse backgrounds. While anyone can technically perform LASER procedures, having a foundational knowledge of skin anatomy is highly beneficial. Our curriculum includes 40 hours of pre-work to ensure a comprehensive understanding of skin layers and related concepts. Our students typically include nurses and estheticians, but we've also certified individuals solely passionate about LASER procedures who have obtained a Medical Director without interest in additional esthetic services.
Q: What if I don't finish my pre-work in time?
Recognizing the intensity of our pre-work, filled with technical terms and concepts, we understand it might be challenging to complete within the initially allotted time. If you find yourself in this situation, simply notify the academy seven days before your class date. You will then be seamlessly moved to the next scheduled class. Please note that this opportunity to reschedule is available only once. We are committed to ensuring you are well-prepared for the LASER training journey.

At our academy, we've got you covered. We specialize in imparting a deep understanding of the legal LASER requirements specific to the state of Idaho. Our comprehensive curriculum ensures you leave with an intense comprehension of the legal landscape. As an added resource, our class includes a copy of a relationship agreement meticulously crafted by an attorney. This agreement serves as a vital document between you and your chosen Medical Director, especially if you opt for the route of self-employment. Rest assured, you'll have the knowledge and documentation necessary to navigate the legal intricacies of LASER procedures in Idaho.
Q: What are the legalities of practicing aesthetics in Idaho?
