Compliance & Scope of Practice Notice
By enrolling in this course, you acknowledge that it is your responsibility to verify with your licensing board, regulatory agency, employer, supervising physician, or legal counsel whether you may legally perform microneedling or any related procedure within your jurisdiction and professional license.
Choose Your Path:
Same certification. Three ways to get there.
Weekly
Learn your theory and practice on live models under the direct supervision of board certified instructors. Small classes and weekly lab sessions on a steady weekday schedule make this the proven path most students choose.
Fast Track
Same curriculum and the same campus days, with double the lab hours every week. Twice the time on live models means you build real procedural confidence and finish your lab hours sooner. Made for students who learn best by doing.
Intensive
Complete your theory first, then finish all your labs at one time on our campus. Total focus and total immersion, with all of your labs done in one concentrated stretch that runs from 9 days to 3 weeks depending on your program.

What Makes Our Program Unique?
- Two Certifications, Two Careers in One: Complete Tier One (Skin Care) and, upon graduation, you’re eligible to apply for a Florida Facial Specialist License. Then advance to Tier Two: our Master Aesthetician course to earn your FAMA Master Aesthetician Certification and if completed in person, you may also become eligible to apply for Certified Phlebotomist through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA)
- State‑Approved Curriculum: Every module aligns with Florida DBPR and Department of Health regulations, ensuring full compliance and easy licensure processing.
- Real‑Patient Experience: Train on live models inside FAMA’s medical clinic, performing nano‑needling, advanced peels, laser protocols, and post‑operative skincare under direct physician and nurse supervision.
- Top‑Tier Faculty & Technology: Learn from board‑certified, nurse practitioners, and seasoned aesthetic educators while operating the latest fractional lasers, nano‑pens, and diagnostic imaging devices.
- All Materials Included: Tuition covers professional kits, medical‑grade products, laser disposables, study manuals, exam fees, and digital resources with no hidden costs.
- Flexible Financing: Choose Klarna, Affirm, or FAMA’s interest‑free FlexPay plan no credit checks, payments scheduled to match your course timeline.
Most schools separate licensure and advanced aesthetic coursework, forcing students to enroll twice. FAMA integrates both into a seamless journey: we handle every requirement from basic facial protocols to medical grade treatments under one enrollment, one tuition plan, and one mentoring team. You learn in our fully equipped medical clinic, practicing on real patients with guidance from board‑certified and nurse practitioners. Small cohorts, in‑depth regulatory training, and business modules ensure you graduate not only with technical mastery but also with the confidence to thrive in a clinical setting.
Will I Get Certified in Medical Aesthetics?
Yes. After you complete Tier Two (our Master Aesthetician) and graduate, you will receive your FAMA Master Aesthetician Certification. Before that, by completing Tier One (Skin Care), graduates are eligible to apply for a Florida Facial Specialist License. If you complete the program in-person, you may also become eligible to apply for Certified Phlebotomist through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA).

Medical Aeshetician Process
How It Works?
Your journey begins with 280 hours of Track One study covering facial techniques, infection control, skin physiology, Florida law, and state licensure preparation. FAMA records your hours, administers practical exams, and submits your application to the Florida Board of Cosmetology. Once licensed, you advance directly into the Medical Aesthetician module for four intensive weeks (only mondays) on‑campus or a six‑month self paced online path where you train in advanced treatments, clinical documentation, OSHA/HIPAA compliance, and phlebotomy. FAMA guides every step, ensuring all state and national documentation is complete before you sit for final certification assessments.
We’ll guide you every step of the way from registration,
exam prep, to certification.
