Foundation Botox & Dermal Fillers Course
Our foundation botox and dermal fillers course is designed for clinicians entering injectables for the first time. Starting a career in aesthetic medicine shouldn't feel like entering a maze of complex terminology and overcrowded classrooms. At Harley Street Institute, we make your first step into aesthetics clear, structured, and genuinely confidence-building.
A very interesting course, well structured and comprehensive. Very reasonable price too.
I attended the foundation Botox and fillers course with no previous experience in aesthetics. The course was well presented with an online package followed by practical training. Would highly recommend.
Great experience from start to finish! All staff were so kind and helpful. The trainer, Dr Hena, was very skilled and knowledgeable, she supported the group throughout the day to ensure we all felt confident.

Why Our Foundation Training Is Different
Most programmes promise confidence but deliver confusion — too many slides, too many people, too little needle time. Our Foundation Botox & Dermal Fillers Course is structured very differently.
We keep it focused. We keep it small. This approach ensures beginner injectables training is practical, logical, and immediately applicable.
Maximum 4 delegates
Personal attention guaranteed
Real live models
Not mannequins or demos
Logic over memorizing
Understanding-based teaching
Modern safety principles
Red-flag recognition
Over 95% of our graduates begin treating immediately after completing foundation training — not because we rush them, but because we teach combined injectables in a way that makes sense.

Before You Arrive — Online Theory That Actually Helps
Before attending the on-site foundation training day, you will complete our online pre-learning modules. The pre-learning modules provide a grounding in botox and dermal fillers training before hands-on practice:
This pre-course theory allows the terminology, anatomy, and concepts to settle in naturally, so you arrive prepared and confident. Because your online learning covers the theory, your in-person foundation training becomes almost entirely practical.
What Happens On the Day
Your day begins with a relaxed discussion with your instructors. Instead of delivering another long lecture, we focus on clarification, questions, and preparation for hands-on practice.
And then you get straight to injecting.
Most of your foundation training day will be practical, guided work on real patients. You will inject, observe, refine, and repeat — with continuous feedback from Harley Street clinicians.
Throughout the day, you ask the real questions that matter:
- • "Is this the correct depth for this injection?"
- • "Should this patient have toxin, filler, or both?"
- • "Where is the safe zone here?"
- • "Is this asymmetry normal or concerning?"
- • "How do I reduce discomfort in this area?"
This is where knowledge becomes logic, and logic becomes skill.
