Celebrating 20 Years
Since 2005, we've helped more than 15,000 physicians and nurse practitioners build thriving aesthetic practices — and reclaim joy in medicine.
Who We Are
IAPAM was founded to help physicians add non-insurance medical procedures to their practice in a profitable, sustainable way. What began with a small group of physicians and board-certified dermatologists gathering for a 2-day training has grown into the Successful Aesthetic Practice System™ — trusted by more than 15,000 medical professionals worldwide.
For two decades, we've expanded our education to include Botox® training & certification, aesthetic medicine, medical weight management, and practice business training — giving providers the most comprehensive framework to reduce burnout, improve work-life balance, and create practices that patients love returning to.
Our faculty have successfully started and grown their own aesthetic practices, medical spas, and medical weight management clinics. That road-tested experience is built into everything we teach.
“A branch of medicine focused on satisfying the aesthetic desires and goals of patients. This specialty is primarily focused on the pathophysiology of aging skin, and adheres to scientific-based procedures.”
— IAPAM Definition of Aesthetic Medicine
