The Level 3 Certificate in Access to Aesthetic Therapies is designed for learners who have completed foundational beauty qualifications and are ready to advance into the world of modern aesthetic practice. This pathway builds on core beauty skills and introduces learners to the knowledge needed for safe, responsible progression into higher-level treatments.
Through a combination of theory and practical development, students learn essential principles related to skin sciences, treatment preparation, client management, and professional standards. The course sharpens existing practical techniques while helping learners understand the expectations of the aesthetic environment.
This Level 3 programme prepares learners for further specialised aesthetic training, higher education, or employment within beauty and spa settings. It acts as a bridge between traditional beauty therapy and advanced aesthetic pathways.
The course combines advanced theoretical understanding with practical development to prepare learners for aesthetic training. Key study areas include skin anatomy and physiology, treatment protocols, client consultations, and health and safety for higher-level practice. Learners refine their existing beauty skills while exploring the principles behind aesthetic treatments, preparing them for Level 4 pathways. Professional development elements—such as communication, client care, and industry expectations—ensure students are workplace-ready. The structure blends classroom learning, demonstrations, supervised practice, and portfolio development.
Learners must have completed Level 1 Beauty Therapy and Level 2 NVQ Diploma in Beauty Therapy General, or equivalent qualifications. Good communication skills, professionalism, and a strong interest in progressing toward aesthetic therapies are essential. Applicants may also be required to demonstrate commitment to practical sessions and adherence to industry standards.
Fees are structured based on the level and mode of study. Flexible payment plans may be available to help learners spread the cost over instalments. For detailed fee information and guidance on payment options, contact the admissions team at admissions@aronexcollege.co.uk.
