My aesthetic adventure
My aesthetic adventure began in 2016. I took a weekend course and started calling myself an injector. Oh, I was so wrong then. I didn’t realize how much time and dedication I would need to start a career in Aesthetic Medicine. I found I didn’t want to be considered only and injector I wanted to practice Medicine Aesthetically with an holistic approach. This includes optimal patient outcomes administered in an ethical and sustainable ways.
Teaching my patients how to consume beauty for all of us providers.
I shadowed a Neurology Np and Learned how to administer therapeutic Botox for Migraines. I worked with her learning a variety of therapeutic and cosmetic applications for Neuromodulators. As I advanced, I added Ha fillers and Biostimulators to my tool kit. The power of PRF, exosomes, and lasers.
I have had the great privilege to became a National Trainer and Speaker for Allergan in 2020. I also Trainer for AIAM- Nova Threads, PRF Gel and Derma Sculpt Cannulas. I value knowledge and collaboration above all. I seek support and growth and I want my students to become peers and share in the development of Aesthetic Medicine.
Why did you create Inspire University?
To help injectors find a place to start and grow.
I believe Aesthetic Providers need a more standardized introduction into Aesthetic Medicine. I provide support and mentorship throughout the learning experience that continues for the rest of your career.
FAQs
WHAT TYPE OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL/NURSE INJECTOR CAN TAKE THIS COURSE?
In order to administer cosmetic injectables, such as Botox or Dermal Fillers, you must have a certified medical background. This includes physicians, physician assistants, dentists, registered nurses, or other licensed healthcare practitioners. These courses are intended to expand upon that medical knowledge and provide practical and hands-on experience in providing medical aesthetic treatments with these injectable products.
HOW WILL THIS CERTIFICATION COURSE ADVANCE MY INJECTOR CAREER?
Having a certification will enhance your resume for future employers. High-end medical spas would prefer to hire an aesthetics injector with knowledge and experience instead of spending thousands of dollars to train an applicant without that knowledge base. Employers easily see the benefits of hiring someone with certifications over someone without them.
Showing initiative by independently pursuing hands-on continuing education demonstrates your willingness to do what it takes and bring more to the table than the average applicant. It puts your resume at the top of the pile.
HOW MANY STUDENTS ARE IN EACH COURSE?
Our in-person trainings are offered at our Utah location. These small-group, hands-on trainings are limited to groups of 10-20, depending on the location.
WHAT IS THE COST OF ATTENDING AN IN-PERSON INJECTOR TRAINING?
Our in-person training events are currently priced at $5000. Our invitation-only advanced courses vary in price. The cost will be discussed when applicants are invited to apply. We are currently in the planning stages to be able to offer payment plan options in the future.
WILL I GET A CERTIFICATION UPON COMPLETION?
Yes, upon completion of any of our cosmetic injectable training courses, a certificate will be issued.
IS THERE A CANCELLATION POLICY?
Currently, we do not issue refunds. However, your prepaid course fee can be rolled over for future use when registering for another course date.

I have visited a handful of med spas over the years and have never received perfect service from beginning to end like I did at Inspire medical spa. They were welcoming, kind and made me the focus of their attention when talking/working with me. Arie was very helpful and knowledgeable in answering all my questions and Celeste engaged in conversation, educating me on my procedure and she listened, which I have found rare in these types of situations. She focused on me and what I wanted my results to be rather than trying to sell me more than I wanted. I cannot recommend them enough. I will never go anywhere else in the future and they exceeded all expectations.

Couldn’t be happier with my experience at Inspire. Celeste and her team are welcoming, knowledgeable, passionate, and attentive. I was referred to Celeste while seeking treatment for stubborn acne scarring and have seen incredible results. They have all the latest tech and work with you to create a tailored treatment plan based on your goals. I never felt pressured or left with unanswered questions. Highly recommend!

After trying to solve for a certain cosmetic outcome with different clinics/injectors, Celeste just rocked my world educating me about the science behind my issue and walked me through new/different ways to solve it. She is so smart, I was blown away and felt like I was in very trained and capable hands. Super impressed by Celeste and her staff after just one visit.
