What should I do after my Foundation course (1)

At Cosmetic Courses one of our most popular training courses is our Foundation Botox and Dermal Filler Training Course. It’s the first step in entering the exciting world of aesthetics and provides you with the fundamentals of aesthetic medicine along with business and marketing advice. The course covers basic Botulinum Toxin treatments and filler around the mouth. 

After completing the Foundation course some delegates may feel overwhelmed of what do to next. We spoke to Abi one of our course coordinators and Lucinda from our marketing team who outlined the most popular next steps after Foundation training to help grow and flourish your aesthetic career!

What courses do you recommend delegates go on after their Foundation training?

“I would recommend our intermediate training course to consolidate the knowledge gained already. From here most delegates then decide to undergo introduction to lip training to learn about this popular area and implement into their clinics. A popular next step would be one of our bespoke training days, these days allow you to choose what you wish to learn, whether that be recapping from other courses or choosing some new areas!

Now you have your core training, there are two different routes you can go down, either you start to incorporate skin into your practice with a course like Chemical Peel Training or you decide to advance your injecting knowledge further with our advanced or contouring course.

At this point you will of covered all popular areas of Botulinum Toxin and filler along with skin treatments and now would be looking at one of our expert courses!” – Abi

In terms of marketing, what should delegates be doing after their Foundation course?

“To start with I would recommend setting up social media pages for the business as soon as you can. Social media is a free way to get your message out and bring clients in. Using social media to showcase your training and treatments along with before and afters will help grow your business from your phone! Before and afters can be hard to come by in the beginning but its important you practice what you have learnt so by inviting friends and family in for treatments and using them as case studies across your marketing helps not only build your confidence but gets your services out there!

List your business on local listing sites too to help grow your visibility, these are mostly free and will help get your name out there.

A good tip is to look at your competition, what are they doing that you could do? Also look at bigger clinics that inspire you as you build your business.”
