💉 What do you think? Should aesthetic nurse practitioners in England, Wales and Northern Ireland be able to hold stock of prescription medication, just like their peers in Scotland?
✅️ Comment 'THIS' below if you believe cosmetic nurses across the whole of the UK should have the same rights as in Scotland. That is, to be legally permitted to hold stock, regardless of whether they're a prescriber or not
✅️ Comment 'THAT' if you think Scotland has it wrong and aesthetic nurses should not be able to hold stock
⚖️ This is a particularly nuanced debate - for example, you may believe that nurses SHOULD be able to hold stock, but only if they're an aesthetic nurse prescriber. Or, perhaps you want to see nurses - whether prescribers or not - being able to hold emergency stock only.
👇️ So, if your feelings aren't captured entirely by a 'THIS' or a 'THAT' comment, feel free to leave us your thoughts below - whatever they may be!

We are proud to have developed the first Level 7 Injectables qualification regulated by Ofqual, the government’s Office of Qualifications and Examinations. The term ‘level 7’ was previously relatively unheard of but has since become a hallmark quality education in aesthetics, setting the foundations for safer practice in the UK.
We have also created the first complete qualification suite in Skin Rejuvenation. This course equips practitioners with cutting-edge knowledge so they can treat their patients holistically, meet a wider range of needs and position themselves as experts in their field.
Our ambition is to create a very high standard of care in aesthetics and a community of practitioners confident in their ability to deliver that standard.
Education and innovation is at the heart of everything we do. Our offer is unique because we combine one-to-one mentoring in a real clinic environment with the latest online learning technology in order to offer the best possible educational experience to our students.
We are passionate about empowering professionals with the latest and safest techniques so they can evolve in their careers. Community is also key for us and our students can speed up their learning curve through mentorship programs, workshops and forums.
It is no surprise that 90% of our Level 7 graduates already have successful aesthetic practices, and our student body keeps on growing.
At its best, aesthetics is a truly satisfying specialty which significantly improves the quality of life for our patients while providing a rewarding practice and an unmatched lifestyle to the clinician.
