Injectables and medical-grade treatments are the practice of medicine, done by or under a physician, physician assistant or nurse practitioner with a written protocol. Laser hair removal and pulsed-light skin treatments need a cosmetic laser practitioner license, with assistant laser practitioners supervised on site except for hair removal. Tattoo removal and ablative lasers fall outside that license and stay with licensed medical staff.
