Course focus

Anatomy & Physiology

Foundational anatomy and physiology for aesthetics and clinical practice, with emphasis on structures, systems, terminology and safe-practice application.

Anatomical terminology

Structures, systems and language used across aesthetics and clinical practice.

Skin & tissues

Foundational tissue, skin and wound-healing knowledge relevant to safe treatment planning.

Body systems

Core systems and their relevance to professional practice and treatment safety.

Applied understanding

Using anatomy and physiology to support safer consultation, assessment and referral decisions.

Qualification status

Anatomy & Physiology is described as a course or level descriptor unless an appropriate awarding-body arrangement is in place. The Academy will not describe it as a regulated qualification unless that status applies at the relevant time.

Assessment & certification

Competency matters.

Attendance alone does not guarantee certification. Learners must meet the published attendance, knowledge and practical competency requirements for the relevant course. Practical assessment is used where the programme includes a practical skill.

Professional responsibility

Course completion does not by itself authorise a learner to practise. Learners remain responsible for professional scope, competence, insurance and any applicable legal or regulatory requirements.
