Allergan Aesthetics launched a new, free training service to Allergan Medical Institute to provide support to growing practices in the rapidly growing aesthetic medical spa market. The latest courses added to the online platform are the first business education courses, previously it was only clinical education. 

"Allergan Aesthetics designed AMI Business to meet providers where they are—supporting them with practical, business-focused education related to our products to complement their clinical expertise and help them grow their practices and deliver on patient needs," said Glen Curran, Senior Vice President, U.S. Allergan Aesthetics. "We are excited to provide these courses free of charge through AMI Online, giving all of our customers access to valuable resources that help them thrive in this dynamic industry."

The aesthetic medical spa market has become a $17 billion industry that employees 100,000 people, according to Allergan Aesthetics. Feedback from the med spa community led Allergan Aesthetics to develop AMI Business, offering practical business insights to medical aesthetic clinics by delivering progressive training and education to clinicians, staff, and management focused on achieving best business practices with a goal of pursuing excellence in patient service.
