Enrolling in the VTCT Level 4 Diploma in Advanced Aesthetic Treatments at Sarah Artistry Academy was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career. The course provided a comprehensive education on advanced aesthetic treatments, covering a wide range of topics including skin science, consultation techniques, and practical application of treatments like Plasma Pen procedures.
The training was detailed and thorough, with expert instructors guiding us through each step of the process. The practical sessions were particularly valuable, as they gave me hands-on experience and the confidence to perform advanced aesthetic treatments in a clinical setting.
At Sarah Artistry Academy, the instructors were not only supportive but also highly knowledgeable, offering valuable insights and personalized feedback. Their expertise ensured that I gained a deep understanding of the concepts and techniques taught in the course.
While the course fee initially seemed daunting, the special offer and 10-month finance option provided by Sarah Artistry Academy made it manageable. This allowed me to focus on my studies without worrying about the financial aspect.
