Key Questions

Our Botox, dermal filler, and laser masterclasses are all practical unless specifically stated otherwise. Our clinical seminars are lecture based and do not include practical injecting experience.
I'm a beautician, can I attend a PHI College course?
We only allow medically trained professionals on our injectables courses, due to the in depth knowledge of anatomy required to be able to safely inject Botox and dermal fillers. This includes doctors, dentists, nurses, and surgeons. Please note that we do not train pharmacists in Botox or filler.
Our laser courses entry requirements vary by course and can be found on the relevant laser course pages.
