About
Aimed at experienced medical aesthetics practitioners, this Fast Track Level 7 programme offers the same level of in-depth aesthetic medicine training for doctors, dentists and nurses as our full Level 7 Diploma in Botox & Dermal Fillers, but without the practical elements so you can minimise time away from your busy clinic
Why you need a fast track level 7 diploma
Building a successful career in aesthetics requires a broad range of knowledge, skills and experience
Through Recognition of Prior Learning, we allow experienced practitioners to meet the Health Education England (HEE) and Joint Council of Cosmetic Practitioners (JCCP) requirements without taking time out from their busy clinics
- Quick and focused route to completing the highest formal aesthetic medicine qualification possible in the UK
- Popular with doctors, dentists, nurses and clinical pharmacists already working in medical aesthetics looking to gain a recognised, regulated injectables qualification ahead of the introduction of the aesthetics licensing scheme for England
What is the Fast Track Level 7 Diploma?
The Harley Academy Fast Track Level 7 Diploma is an Ofqual-regulated, postgraduate medical aesthetics qualification. It teaches the science, theory and practice of injectable treatments
As advocates for safer aesthetic practice and improved patient safety, Harley Academy pioneered this qualification which is mapped to the 2016 Health Education England standards. This framework is one of the elements the government has used to inform its aesthetics licensing scheme proposals
We are proud to be the first JCCP-approved training centre for injectables. Our awarding body, VTCT, is also approved by the JCCP
This Fast Track Level 7 Diploma programme allows you to demonstrate what you already know from your aesthetics practice, and gain formal recognition for it
Included in the programme is access to our comprehensive digital learning suite of videos, quizzes and interactive materials, where you can top-up your knowledge. This easy-to-use eLearning covers:
- Ethics and law in aesthetic medicine – Good medical practice is essential for a long-term career in aesthetics. Gain an understanding of how to protect yourself and your patients, both legally and ethically
- Cosmetic Psychology – Recognising healthy and unhealthy psychological drives is a crucial element of best practice in aesthetic medicine. Learn to understand the signs of body dysmorphia and how to deal with patients who may need to be refused treatment
- Skin Science – The skin is the foundation for all cosmetic procedures. In this eLearning module, you'll learn the structure and function of both the skin and hair, plus how they age over time. You'll also learn to recognise skin conditions that contraindicate treatment, as well as referral pathways for patients suffering from skin-related concerns
- Botulinum toxins & dermal fillers – With this eLearning, you will deepen your understanding of the science of botulinum toxins and fillers. The module covers mechanisms of action, how to consult for a wide range of indications, an array of optimal injection techniques, plus how to manage complications and side effects
