    I attended three courses at Cosmed, and I can't recommend them enough, whether you're a beginner or looking to upskill. The student-to-teacher ratio was small, providing plenty of opportunities to perform a variety of procedures. Anna and Madeline were fantastic instructors, offering great encouragement and confidence to perform the procedures. I enjoyed the class and feel very confident afterward. They provided a wealth of information before, during, and after the course. The transparency is what I liked the most, as both Anna and Madeline spoke from their years of experience. The class was enjoyable (not stressful at all) and packed with valuable knowledge and tips to make the transition into aesthetics seamless. I would definitely book more courses and recommend them to my friends and colleagues.

    I did my foundation and advanced Botulinum toxin and Dermal Filler courses with Cosmed and I can’t be more impressed. Wonderful staff! Yasmin, Jade, Eleonora go above and beyond to help you with your booking process and thereafter. Most importantly the trainers Anna Gunning and Dr Madeleine are very knowledgeable and skilled at what they do and address all your questions with patience and keep giving all those necessary advices throughout. There is loads of hands on training on a number of models, covering all the different areas and they make sure each delegate gets equal amount of hands on. They provide you with pre and post training reading material which is very very useful. They have an amazing catering service and you have tea/snacks at your hand throughout the day. I highly recommend Cosmed Aesthetic training academy for anyone seeking to start a career in aesthetics. Thanks very much Cosmed.
