Our foundation training is a fantastic introduction for you for entering the aesthetics industry.

Additionally, many delegates go on to complete our MATA Level 7 Diploma in Facial Aesthetics: Incorporating OTHM Level 7 Certificate in Clinical Injectable Therapies, which sets you apart in the crowd, weighted as 60 credits, nearly twice than that of our certificate. Therefore, we aim to give you the skills to transition within the aesthetics industry and will even ensure you learn the skills to begin your own aesthetics business.

Practice makes perfect and at the end of day, the more core theory you complete before attending our practical days ensures more time to practice on live models.
