Skip to content Developing confidence in aesthetic medicine requires more than completing a course. While hands-on training builds technical skill, many providers find that real-world variability, patient anatomy, consultation flow, safety considerations, and clinical pacing create uncertainty once they begin practicing independently. Shadowing allows providers to observe how experienced injectors navigate these variables in live clinical settings.
At Auri Academy in Gilbert, AZ, the Shadowing Experience is designed to support this critical transition. Providers observe expert injectors performing Botox® and dermal filler treatments on real patients, gaining insight into assessment, treatment planning, injection sequencing, and safety decision-making. This experience reinforces clinical judgment and prepares participants to progress confidently within their aesthetic training pathway.

Auri Academy is both a medical spa and a training academy, allowing providers to learn within an active clinical environment. Shadowing reflects genuine patient care rather than simulated scenarios, reinforcing the practical application of established protocols.
Experienced injectors and educators, including national trainer Rechelle Trejo, NP, lead education at Auri Academy. Training emphasizes safety, consistency, and individualized clinical decision-making rather than volume-based approaches.
Auri Academy is committed to providing a trusted, structured pathway for providers at every stage of their aesthetic career. Through observation, mentorship, and continued education, the Academy supports confident, ethical, and sustainable growth in aesthetic medicine.
Breaking into aesthetic medicine requires more than technique exposure. It requires structured education, live patient experience, mentorship, and a clear progression.
Whether you are entering the field or advancing your current skill set, Auri Academy provides a pathway built around real practice, real standards, and real growth.
Rechelle Trejo, FNP-C, is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner, practicing aesthetic provider, and national trainer. As the founder of Auri Aesthetics, she has built a high-performing clinical practice centered on thoughtful assessment, evidence-based treatments, and natural outcomes.
At Auri Academy, Rechelle brings that same real-world standard into the training environment. Students learn not only injection technique, but how to assess patients, think critically, and make sound treatment decisions inside a real aesthetic practice.
Our goal is not just to teach procedures. It is to help providers develop the clinical judgment, confidence, and readiness required to succeed in aesthetic medicine.
