No. A cosmetology license is not required to become a certified Cranial Prosthesis Specialist. Our program is open to hairstylists, entrepreneurs, wig sellers, and career changers — regardless of your background. Many of our most successful graduates had no prior beauty industry experience.

Insurance companies reimburse $800–$2,000+ per cranial prosthesis, and many patients need replacements every 6–12 months. A provider serving just 5 clients per month can generate $4,000–$7,500 in monthly revenue. Your earnings depend on your location, marketing, and the number of clients you serve.

Our certification covers billing for Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, and VA contracts. You'll learn the proper billing codes, claims submission process, and how to work with different insurance types.

The online course is completely self-paced — most students complete it within a few weeks. The in-person certification in Atlanta on June 14 is a one-day intensive. Both options include lifetime access to all course materials.

You receive a framed certificate of completion, a professional lab coat, superbill and intake form templates, NPI registration guidance, a listing in our provider directory, and access to the full bonus course bundle valued at $2,682.

No. As a Cranial Prosthesis Specialist, your role is to consult with patients, coordinate with physicians who provide prescriptions, source the prosthesis, and handle the insurance billing. You do not need to manufacture or physically install the unit.
