OFQUAL Regulated · Level 2–6 Pathways
Calling existing skincare professionals and aestheticians. MSTA delivers the UK’s leading OFQUAL regulated aesthetic skincare qualifications and conversion courses, in partnership with our VTCT-approved centre.
Medic-led · VTCT-approved centre · Ofqual-regulated qualifications · 1,000+ students trained
For years, our students and followers asked whether we offered Level 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 training. For a long time the answer was no, while we focused on building the highest quality training programmes we could. That has now changed.
We have spent the last 18 months developing regulated Level 2–6 qualification pathways for professionals who want to elevate their skills and credentials. These are delivered through our VTCT-approved centre, and they do far more than add a certificate to your wall: they are designed to help you deliver better outcomes, progress your career and earn more.
The most exclusive professional brands often require a Level 3, 4 or higher qualification before they'll stock you.
Learn far more about the treatments you already offer, and why they work, at a genuinely clinical depth.
Earn a regulated, government-recognised qualification as the industry moves steadily toward regulated standards.
Train to a level recognised by a respected OFQUAL regulated awarding body, not just a wall of short-course certificates.
