The Illinois rule

Who can perform Dysport in Illinois

Illinois law does not list the licences that may inject. A physician may delegate to licensed people within their own licence, and to trained unlicensed people with a health care professional on site.

Botox and fillers in Illinois, by licence
LicenceAllowedCondition
DoctorYesThe joint memo says a physician may prescribe and give drugs including Botox, and supervise and delegate them. IDFPR's statement says the physician must examine the patient and decide the course of treatment first.
Nurse practitionerConditionsThe copy says APRN. With a notarized attestation (250 hours of training, 4,000 hours of clinical experience) an APRN needs no written collaborative agreement; otherwise a written agreement with a physician applies. We found no Illinois list of the cosmetic procedures within an APRN's own licence.
Physician assistantConditionsWorks under a written collaborative agreement with a physician, who may hold such agreements with no more than seven full-time-equivalent physician assistants, with exceptions. We found no Illinois list of the cosmetic procedures a PA may do.
Registered nurseUnclearA physician may delegate tasks to an RN within their own licence. We found no Illinois text that says whether injecting cosmetic toxin or filler is within that licence.
LPNUnclearA physician may delegate tasks to an LPN within their own licence. We found no Illinois text that says whether injecting cosmetic toxin or filler is within that licence.
Medical assistantUnclearA physician may delegate to an unlicensed person with the training and experience if a health care professional is on site. We found no Illinois text that says whether an injection may be delegated this way.
EstheticianNoIDFPR's statement lists Botox as the practice of medicine, outside what a cosmetologist or an esthetician may do.
