Aesthetic medicine has been popular for decades, and over time the aesthetic industry has carved out a niche of its own away from the typical therapeutic relaxation treatments of massages and the surgical procedures of plastic surgery.
With the growing demand and popularity for non-invasive aesthetic procedures, more individuals are turning to aesthetic medicine and becoming aesthetic practitioners to expand upon or change their career paths. Here at KL Cosmetics, we pride ourselves on our ability to provide customer-centred aesthetic procedures to help individuals enhance their natural features and discover their added beauty. If you share the values we do, you might have the makings of a fantastic aesthetician.
Medical and non-medical aesthetics are two different fields which aim to achieve the same results, the only difference is the type of procedures they can perform.
These aestheticians are often doctors, nurses, or other medical professionals with academic training who have expanded upon their training to include complex, and in some cases, life-changing aesthetic procedures. A medical aesthetician, for example, might have experience in treating skin traumas and performing plastic surgery.
Medical aesthetic courses are best suited to those looking for a change of career or expansion of their current skills. If you are already a medical professional, such as a nurse or medical practitioner, your clinical skills will be valuable in administering injectable treatments, and other cosmetic treatments.
Treatments performed by a medical aesthetician:
This type of aesthetics still requires a qualified practitioner to perform certain aesthetic procedures, but they are not qualified to complete invasive or surgical treatments.
Treatments performed by a non-medical aesthetician:
At KL Academy, we offer 2 courses on both Foundation Botulinum Toxin and Foundational Dermal Filler (including lip enhancement) for medical aestheticians to boost their knowledge, train them in new treatments, and help them build their businesses.
As mentioned above, aesthetic treatments like Botox and fillers and growing in popularity. The aesthetics industry is strong, and as people discover more affordable alternatives to drastic invasive treatments like plastic surgery, they turn to aesthetic clinics to help them amplify their best features. When you complete a treatment, you’re not just completing a service, you’re changing how that patient thinks of themselves, improving their confidence and sense of well-being, which can be an extremely rewarding element of the job.
Many individuals also do not do one-time treatments and often become loyal to clinics they have had good experiences with, making client base and relationship building easier. In addition, due to the high demand for these treatments, it won’t be long before you recuperate your investment into a training course.
Practical training in medical aesthetics treatments expands your career options, making you able to work in an aesthetics clinic or even open your own aesthetic practice!
If you are looking to train in any medical aesthetic treatments, you’ll need the required qualifications to apply. At KL Cosmetics, our training is provided by medical professionals to medical professionals, so only those with a valid GMC/GDC/NMC number (such as doctors, nurses, dentists, and paramedics) will be eligible for this training.
Finding the right medical aesthetic training course will depend on what you’re looking to train for and who you want to be trained by. As mentioned, KL Academy’s courses are only given by qualified professionals to ensure top-quality training and information.
Researching the course you are interested in will be the first step in your process. You’ll want to consider the time it takes for training, the cost, and the physical location of the course to see if it is right for you. Some courses will take longer than others, so ensure you choose one which includes all the information and training you’ll need in order to be able to provide the treatment yourself after training.
When expanding your aesthetic treatment knowledge, you’ll want to ensure your training is provided by a reputable training provider to ensure the quality of your training meets the standards your patients will expect from your treatments.
Here at KL Academy, our team of aesthetic practitioners have years of experience in the treatments we train others in. Choosing a reputable course helps to verify that course’s quality and reassures you that you will be getting the training and qualifications you need from a trusted aesthetic practitioner. If you have any fears the course might not be providing the standard of training you expect, it’s best to contact them to answer any concerns you might have, and if you are still unsure, choose a different training course provider.
Unreputable training courses can be risky, as not only are you potentially putting yourself in danger of receiving incorrect training, but you are also putting any future patients who receive treatment from you in danger. It might seem unlikely, but doing your research on your training provider is imperative to ensure the quality of the training is up to standard.
When you’ve found the right course for you, check the itinerary for the day. Here you’ll find everything the course covers and the timeframe of the course so you can plan accordingly.
Some courses like ours offer multi-day training so you can the most of your time.
