March 2026 Monthly Update
Welcome to our March 2026 Monthly Update
This month marks the end of a strong start to the year.
We’ve spent the last few months focusing on helping people get into aesthetics safely and with the right support. Now, we begin to shift towards what comes next – building confidence and progressing further.
Below is a quick round-up of what’s been happening and what to focus on next.
“Over the last few months, our focus has been helping people get started in aesthetics safely and with the right support.
As we move forward, the focus shifts to building confidence – understanding what happens after your first course, and how to progress properly within the industry.”
Mr Adrian Richards
Medical Director, Cosmetic Courses
Foundation Training – Still the First Step
Foundation Botox and Dermal Filler Training remains the starting point for most medical professionals entering aesthetics.
It gives you:
- Safe, structured training
- Hands-on injecting experience
- A clear way to begin
More delegates are now taking that first step. From here, the focus is on building confidence and gaining experience.
Level 7 – Ongoing Support & Mentoring
We’ve continued to see strong interest in Level 7 this quarter.
Level 7 is not just a qualification. It’s a long-term pathway.
Alongside the core training, we now offer additional mentoring days, giving delegates more time to build confidence, develop their skills, and gain support as they progress.
As standards continue to rise across the industry, structured qualifications and ongoing support will become more important.
ACE 2026 – Starting Strong in Aesthetics
ACE was a great weekend for the team.
We were proud to be the Starting Strong in Aesthetics Partner, delivering sessions in the In Practice Theatre for medical professionals new to aesthetics.
These talks focused on:
- Safe entry into the industry
- Sustainable growth
- Building a long-term career
It was great to see so many practitioners gaining valuable insight as they begin or develop their aesthetics journey.
Aesthetics Awards 2026 – Commended
We’re proud to share some exciting news.
Cosmetic Courses has been Commended at the Aesthetics Awards 2026 in the category of Independent Training Provider of the Year.
This is a huge moment for our team.
The Aesthetics Awards are one of the most respected in UK medical aesthetics. To be recognised here means a lot.
We’re also proud to share that The Cosmetic Centre was named a finalist for the first time, recognising the strength of our clinic team and the care they deliver to patients.
This result builds on our recent track record:
- 2026 – Commended
- 2025 – Winner
- 2024 – Highly Commended
- 2023 – Winner
It reflects the work we put in every day – focusing on safe training, clear teaching, and real support for our delegates.
Thank you to everyone who has trained with us and supported us.
London Open Day – Last Chance
Our Getting Started Open Day is taking place tomorrow (Saturday 28th March) in London.
If you’re still thinking about aesthetics, this is a chance to see things for yourself and understand how everything fits together.
Ultrasound Training – A Great Day in London
On Thursday 12th March, we held our latest Aesthetic Ultrasound Masterclass in Cosmetic Courses London, led by Dr Noor alongside our expert faculty.
The focus was simple – helping delegates understand what is happening under the skin and how ultrasound supports safer practice.
The hands-on element made a big difference. Seeing anatomy live and working with real devices gave much more clarity.
The course was kept small, allowing for close support throughout the day.
Level 3 & Level 4 Pathways
We also continue to offer structured entry routes for non-medical professionals.
- Level 3 – Entry into aesthetic therapies
- Level 4 – Advanced skin and laser treatments
These qualifications focus on skin and laser treatments and provide a clear pathway within that area of aesthetics.
Partner Support
Alongside your training, having the right support in place is just as important.
We work with trusted partners to support you as you move into practice.
Owlicity Insurance
We’re proud to partner with Owlicity Insurance.
Once you’ve completed your training, the next step is getting insured. Owlicity offers simple, fixed-price insurance based on the treatments you carry out.
They work with an underwriter at Lloyd’s of London and specialise in supporting aesthetic practitioners.
As part of their service, you’ll have access to:
- 24/7 advice and support
- Experienced claims handlers
- Help managing complaints and claims
Their focus is not just protection, but ongoing support when you need it.
Hale Health
We also partner with Hale Health.
Hale Health is a private healthcare provider offering both in-person and remote consultations across the UK and Ireland.
Founded by Dr Emma Cunningham, the service is built around accessible, trusted care delivered by experienced medical professionals.
Their clinics support:
- Private and corporate patients
- In-person consultations and treatments
- Remote video appointments
This gives practitioners access to wider medical support when needed.
Looking Ahead – Moving Into Q2
As we move into the next quarter, the focus begins to change.
Not just getting started, but getting confident.
This means:
Gaining experience
Building confidence in practice
Understanding progression
Taking the next step at the right time
We’ll be sharing more on this over the coming months.
