If you're looking to expand your advanced aesthetic skills, mesotherapy training courses with the Cosmetic College could be the ideal addition to your training calendar. ​Mesotherapy is a safe, natural alternative to invasive cosmetic procedures and is ideal for dry, dehydrated and dull skin or simply as a skin boost. Treatment can be applied to the whole face, neck, chest and hands. The technique uses very fine needles to deliver a series of injections into the middle layer (mesoderm) of skin. The idea behind mesotherapy is that it corrects underlying issues like poor circulation and inflammation that cause skin damage. We welcome, beauty therapists, doctors, nurses, dentists and prescribing pharmacists onto the course. We are also one of the only providers of this course to be able to offer the training to non-medical students.  Course prerequisites Minimum 18 years of age Good command of English Be able to learn independently A strong desire to build a career in aesthetics Course structure The online study, virtual lecture and in-person practical training All courses are intimate with four learners in class 2-1 ratio. 1 day of onsite training
