About this course

The Level 7 Diploma is the senior qualification in the injectables pathway at Vilafortuny Specialised Training Centre, delivered with our accredited UK partner. It covers botulinum toxin and dermal fillers from facial anatomy and product science through to patient assessment, consent, treatment planning and complication management.

Aligned with UK standards, the Level 7 certification is recognised as a regulated UK diploma endorsed by Ofqual and sits as a postgraduate qualification in medical aesthetics. It is also acknowledged as a Recognised Pathway of Learning, which can give eligibility for advanced entry into corresponding degree years, top-up programmes and master's top-up programmes.
