Medical Aesthetics Training
About Us
About The Teaching Clinics
We are Antoinette and Joanne, experienced Adult Nurses with nine and thirteen years of independent practice in aesthetics, respectively. United by our shared values, vision, and commitment to high standards, we have come together to create this joint venture.
Our passion for providing safe, natural injectable treatments has always been at the heart of our business model. Over the past few years, we’ve been developing The Teaching Clinics to share this passion and expertise with our delegates.
We are dedicated to empowering like-minded medical professionals with the skills and confidence they need to practice aesthetics safely and competently. We recognise the current oversaturation of substandard aesthetics training available to anyone, regardless of their medical background or experience - something we are determined to change.
At The Teaching Clinics, we fill a critical gap in the aesthetics industry, offering in-depth, practical training designed to equip professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely perform aesthetic treatments upon completion of our courses.
Moreover, we believe that education doesn’t stop when the course ends. That's why we offer ongoing support to all our delegates, providing guidance and advice as they progress in their careers. Whether it’s answering questions, offering mentorship, or supporting you through challenging cases, we are committed to helping you continue your journey with confidence and competence.
