Our story

Why we started Aesthetischool

Aesthetischool students in the practical training room, Clitheroe

We set up Aesthetischool to close the gap between traditional beauty training and medical aesthetics education. Too often, people learn a treatment without first understanding the skin they are treating.

Our courses start with that understanding. Every programme is built around patient-centred care, evidence-based practice and the hands-on experience you need to work safely and confidently with clients.

Whether you are taking your first step into skin or adding to an established clinical career, we give you a recognised route forward and stay with you once you have qualified.

How we teach

Skin first. Safety led. Medically informed.

Explore our courses
01

Skin first

Anatomy, physiology, skin conditions and ingredients come before any treatment. It is the foundation everything else is built on.

02

Safety led

Consultation, infection control, complications and professional standards are part of every course, not an afterthought.

03

Medically informed

You learn from practising doctors and clinicians who treat patients every week, in small groups with time for your questions.

Meet the faculty

Taught by the people who do the work

Our educators combine clinical medicine, skin expertise and years of teaching. You will meet them on day one, and they will be there when you have questions later.
