Lasers and IPL in New Mexico, by licence
LicenceAllowedCondition
Nurse practitionerYesThe copy says APRN. Nurses may do these procedures only as the Board of Nursing's rule sets out: APRNs within their population focus, licensure, national certification and education.
Registered nurseSupervisedNurses may do these procedures only as the Board of Nursing's rule sets out: a registered nurse only if delegated by, and under the indirect supervision of, an APRN or other clinical supervisor.
Medical assistantSupervisedA physician may delegate the use of non-incisive, non-ablative devices to a certified medical assistant when the supervising physician is immediately available on the premises, after a certificate of training form is sent to the Board. The rule, the policy (direct physician supervision) and the FAQ (physically present and available) use three different wordings.
EstheticianUnclearThe Medical Board's view is that an esthetician's licence does not cover lasers or intense pulsed light, but the rule text does not say so. The cosmetology rule lists light therapy, high-frequency and other facial treatments and hair removal except electrolysis or invasive techniques.
