Pharmacist Aesthetics Course

Expert Botox Training Courses for Pharmacists

Pharmacists work tirelessly, often in high pressure environments and while many love their roles, plenty also want better job security, flexibility and better standards of pay and recognition for their efforts. Our pharmacist facial aesthetics course can give you all the confidence and skills you need to step away and start your own aesthetics businesses in an industry that is now worth over £2billion.

For a long time, pharmacists couldn’t practise in the field of non-surgical cosmetic procedures as insurance companies wouldn’t provide cover. However, HEE guidelines do now include pharmacists and we are delighted to offer our Botox courses, Lip Filler Courses and filler training courses to pharmacists from across the UK. Dermal fillers aren’t classified as medical devices and do not require a prescription which means if you’re a pharmacist without the prescribing qualification then you can still source these products independently. However, Botox is a prescription only medicine so, unless you are a licensed prescriber, you will need to source a qualified prescriber to assess and write the prescription for each patient. This is something we cover and can help you with, along with the relevant insurances, as part of our comprehensive training courses for you!

Benefits of a Pharmacists Aesthetics Course

Our comprehensive training provides you with the opportunity to greatly enhance your own skills and capitalise on your existing experience.

You will learn how to perform treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, and similar aesthetic treatments for which the patient base has grown almost exponentially in recent times.

The winning combination of your established knowledge with newfound practical abilities can provide excellent opportunities for you in the future.

Our group classes are purposely kept small in size so every participant has the opportunity to experience the essential hands-on practice that we pride ourselves on, as well as making sure there’s enough time to ask questions, share concerns and learn all you need to know about the products and procedures involved in your new career.

In our class, you will be administering Botox and dermal fillers on real-life models as opposed to plastic dummies that some other course providers use. We believe that structured and safe guided practice on real individuals is the best way to learn and set you up for success.

By keeping our class sizes small, we can guarantee that all of our students will be able to perform all of the most popular and important techniques while gaining experience on injecting into real faces with their own individual features and quirks.

You can also choose to go solo with our bespoke one-to-one training where we tailor the programme to meet your specific needs in order to help you reach your personal goals.
