Highlights

Reserve your seat and join us to uncover how nurses, NPs, and physicians are building sustainable, six-figure potential income streams with high-demand injectable skills—often while still working their current jobs.

In this session, you’ll discover how clinicians are using Botox® and dermal fillers not as a side hustle—but as a strategic escape plan from burnout-driven healthcare careers.

You’ll walk away with:

  • The injectable skills that deliver the highest demand and fastest ROI
  • Why Botox® and dermal fillers remain the most reliable foundation for predictable income 
  • A realistic timeline for transitioning from training → treating → earning
  • How clinicians reduce reliance on overtime while increasing flexibility
  • What a smart, low-risk entry into injectables actually looks like in 2026

All taught by Melissa Pulcini-Buttine, PA, nationally certified Physician Associate,anatomy professor, med spa founder, and Empire Medical Training faculty member with real-world experience building a successful aesthetics practice. This isn’t about quitting healthcare overnight.

It’s about building leverage, optionality, and a plan that puts you back in control.

By the End of This Webinar, You’ll Have:

  • clarity on whether injectables are the right path for you
  • a realistic income and skill-building roadmap
  • confidence in what to learn first (and what to ignore)
  • a framework for replacing overtime with higher-value procedures
  • a clear next step for launching in 2026—without guessing

You’ll leave knowing exactly how clinicians like you are making the transition—and whether it’s your move next.

Why This Webinar Matters

Most clinicians aren’t burned out because they hate medicine.
They’re burned out because the system demands more hours for diminishing returns.

You’ve probably asked yourself:

  • “Is there a way to earn more without working more?”
  • “How are other nurses and providers getting into injectables?”
  • “What if I invest in training and still don’t feel confident?”
  • “Is aesthetics actually realistic—or just hype?”

This webinar was built to answer those questions honestly.

Because injectable aesthetics can be one of the most flexible, high-margin opportunities in healthcare—but only when approached strategically.

And clinicians who start building their skill set before burnout peaks are the ones who gain momentum faster, transition smoother, and earn more long-term.

2026 doesn’t have to look like 2025.

5 Key Webinar Highlights:

1) The Real “Exit Strategy” for Burned-Out Clinicians
How providers are creating optionality—so overtime becomes a choice, not a requirement.

2) Why Injectables Are the Most Reliable Entry Point
What makes Botox® and dermal fillers the highest-demand, lowest-barrier skills for nurses, NPs, and physicians.

3) From Curious to Confident: The Skills That Matter First
How to avoid overtraining, overwhelm, and low-ROI procedures when starting out.

4) The Confidence Gap (and How to Close It Fast)
Why hesitation is normal—and how the right training pathway eliminates fear at the injector chair.

5) The 2026 Advantage
Why clinicians who start building injectable skills now gain more freedom, flexibility, and income next year—and what to do in your first 60 days.

Who This Webinar Is For
This webinar is designed for:

  • Nurses ready to escape shift work and overtime dependency
  • Nurse Practitioners seeking autonomy and higher-value services
  • Physicians looking to diversify income without abandoning medicine
  • Clinicians exploring injectables but unsure where to begin
  • Healthcare professionals who want flexibility, confidence, and control in 2026

If you’re serious about changing how you work—without losing your clinical identity—this webinar is your first step.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, you’ll have:

  • clarity on what to learn first
  • a plan to build confidence faster
  • a patient-growth framework that makes sense
  • the roadmap to launch in 2026 without guessing

You’ll walk away knowing exactly what your next move should be.

Why This Webinar Matters

Most clinicians don’t fail in aesthetics because they lack talent. They fail because they lack a clear plan.

You’ve probably asked yourself:

  • “If I get trained… how do I actually get patients?”
  • “What if I’m not confident enough to treat real people?”
  • “What if I spend money on training and still don’t know what to do next?”
  • “How are other clinicians building six figures from this?”

This webinar was created to answer those questions directly — with real strategies, not vague motivation.

Because the truth is…

Aesthetics is one of the highest-demand, highest-margin opportunities in healthcare — but only if you execute properly.

And clinicians who start in January have a massive advantage: They build momentum early, build confidence faster, and typically earn more throughout the year because they start sooner.
