What is the Level 7?
The Level 7 Diploma in Injectables is a masters-level qualification designed for medical professionals who want to future-proof their aesthetics career and master their competencies in aesthetic medicine. The training usually includes a full-day introduction, mentorship days when you treat live model patients, a written exam, assignments, and an OSCE final exam.
Renowned training providers, such Interface Aesthetics, offer Level 7 packages, designed to help you refine your skills in targeted areas of practice. Signing up for a Level 7 package allows delegates to attend courses at reduced prices, compared to booking them separately.
Who can enrol in a Level 7 training in the UK?
The Level 7 aesthetics diploma is available to practitioners looking to advance their skills through higher-level and masterclass training. Applicants must have completed their degrees and be registered in their own countries.
Professional aesthetic training providers, such as Interface Aesthetics, only accept Registered Healthcare Professionals to join their courses. You must check what the regulations are in your country before signing up to any courses abroad, as rules and laws vary. Given that there is variation in training in different countries, nurses, doctors, dentists and pharmacists from overseas are mainly accepted to join aesthetics courses. If you are a paramedic, you may be eligible, but clinical teams would see your application first.
UK registered healthcare professionals (GMC/NMC/GDC) and international doctors, nurses, dentists, surgeons and pharmacists can apply to the Level 7.
International medical professionals can join a Level 7 aesthetics diploma
International healthcare professionals are eligible to enrol into a Level 7 aesthetics diploma.

Required proofs may include degrees or licences for doctors, surgeons, nurses, dentists and pharmacists.
