Course Breakdown

Step 1

Initial Theory Online Training

Our Theory element of the course is completed by delegates online, covering the fundamental principles and foundations of aesthetic medicine, at a time and place that is comfortable to them. After acceptance onto your course, you can begin your theory training immediately. You will be provided with in-depth theory content, slides and demonstrations that will help you to understand the practice of aesthetic treatments specifically focussing on the lip portion of the face.

On successful completion of your theory element, you will then proceed to step 2 of this course.

Step 2

Face to Face Learning

This day will be used to recap on theory to ensure you are confident in your knowledge of the subject before proceeding to the practical stage of the course.

This step will be carried out in small groups, allowing time for questions to be asked to ensure maximum knowledge and understanding is attained.

Step 3

Live Demonstration by Trainer

Our in-person, 1:1 practical training day will be hosted at our clinic. This provides delegates with the opportunity to work with our educator, Lisa, to be given intensive demonstrations and practice of the theory element that you will have previously learned in Step 1 of the workshop.

The highlight of the training will be the hands-on sessions with live models, which will truly immerse you in the realm of industry treatments. During these sessions, you will gain practical experience in preparing a patient for treatment, performing the treatment itself and ensuring proper aftercare and documentation are diligently carried out.

Each delegate will be provided with their own model to work with on this day.

Once the practical training session is completed, our course administrator Lisa will sign off each delegate and process the course as being completed by the delegate. Delegates will then be presented with our CPD Verified Certificate of Completion and can then begin their practice.

Step 4

Business Setup

This section of the course will focus on establishing a business within the aesthetic industry, as well as managing aesthetic complications to ensure you feel at ease with all facets of embarking on your journey.

Step 5

Observation Days

Once qualified each delegate will be offered 2 days in clinic shadowing observation with Face Therapy NI. The RRP of this is £1000, but as a delegate you will get this included in your course.
