AAAM® Board Certification Courses are open to all licensed physicians, regardless of specialty. The courses are offered in three parts described below, culminating in your Board Certification. Each Level must be completed in order, and none may be skipped, regardless of knowledge or experience level. AAAM® Board Certification is good for 10 years.
AAAM® Board Certification is not a license to practice. Our teaching program is not a working license. It is the highest profiled scientific program you can find in the world. AAAM® faculty members have experience and many skills in their own specialty.
Becoming Board Certified from the American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine, will give you the highest profile to practice this art anywhere in the world. Nevertheless, you will always need a medical license delivered by the local health authorities in any country where you want to practice. To view the current course schedule in the US, click here.
