a course that understands your education
You know aesthetic medicine is growing year on year, after all, it is why you are here and looking at this course. Entering aesthetics through ATAI means you have access to sector leading medical devices just like the Exceed Micro-Needling device, the first FDA approved pen for treating scar tissue.
Medically targeted course content
Evidence base aesthetic medicine might be a sector of the beauty industry, but it is not beauty therapy. Course content is rigorously researched, what is taught at ATAI always has an evidence base for treatments that produce a dermal structural change, unlike beauty therapy which is purely cosmetic.

customise your course
Our course has an elective of laser and intense pulsed light, the foundation qualification to then further specialise your skills into vascular concerns, pigmentation, or fractional laser. Intense pulsed light is the go-to technology for acne, rosacea, pigmentation, and superficial redness. Holding a base laser qualification could be useful in the future if you looking into fractional laser treatments, vascular concerns or many other indications.
Injectables should often be the last procedure not the first
While injectable cosmetics provide outstanding and often as is the case with dermal filler immediate results, the overall visual enhancement is only as good as the canvas. If the client’s skin is in poor health, UV damage, a lacklustre appearance, suffering from skin conditions then often the patient’s satisfaction is also lacking. Injectable cosmetics should be the final touch to the client’s appearance, not the first step. This inside-out approach, addressing skin health first to lift the patient’s skin to optimal skin health can be viewed as best practices in aesthetic care.
Apart from the increased client satisfaction it also provides the practitioner with a more billable skillset and a much more employable set of skills. Clients today are looking for practitioners that can address all their skin concerns not just provide injectables. For nurses looking for employment in specialist skin clinics, employers are looking for skin specialists that can offer more than injectables. Skin care specialists are highly sought after in the industry and as nurses and doctors, you can provide a unique remit of skills that set you apart from general therapists.
