Advanced Aesthetics Overview →Who Can Enrol
Most advanced courses at Obsidian require an existing relevant foundation qualification. For medical advanced aesthetics courses — including all injectable training — a clinical background or a compliant medical prescribing oversight arrangement is also required.
Our team will advise on the correct entry point for your background during your pre-enrolment consultation. We never push practitioners into courses they are not yet ready for — the right preparation makes for the safest and most effective advanced training.
