Good course for practical skills

This is a good course that gives you all the tools you need to practically inject patients and there are plenty of patients to practice on.
There is however minimal business and product advice during the two days - the focus is purely on technique.

I really enjoyed the training

I really enjoyed the training, there was lots of hands on injecting in the 2 day anti wrinkle and filler training. I would say that the beds used could be a lot better for both the client and students as many of us
had bad back especially if you are talller.

Great session!

It was a really small group with lots of models available to practice our technique. I'm excited to add polynucleotides to my clinic services.

We did not actually get a full day as…

We did not actually get a full day as we only saw one client in the morning. We got a half day at the most. I feel I’m still owed half a day.

The trainer was ok. She was telling us completely different things though to what we had learned on our weekend course. It got quite confusing.

I don’t feel I left feeling confident this time.

I also didn’t like that I was asked to give post treatment instructions from memory in front of the client when I had clearly stated my situation earlier. I am also generally used to speaking to patients with the instructions in my hand ready to give to the patient or on a computer screen.

I was not feeling confident going into the injector day and I didn’t feel confident at the end of it either on this occasion.

Thank you for your feedback.

We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. Our aim is to provide a consistent and supportive training environment, and we regret that you left the session not feeling confident. We understand how important this is, and your concerns have been noted.

We do our best to ensure each training day is valuable and that every delegate has time to practise. We're also sorry if there were any discrepancies between previous course content and the trainer's delivery—this should not have caused confusion, and we will look into this further.

One of our team members will be in touch to follow up and discuss this in more detail, as we take all feedback seriously and are committed to continuous improvement.

Positive and insightful training with experienced trainers

Step by step explanation of the theory,giving insightful answers to questions and explanations for why we are shown how to do things and the reasoning behind it.
Practical hands on information with experienced tutoring. Feeling confident in learning and training, knowing that you are in safe hands, and the experience gained was backed up with constructive feedback on every aspect of your practice and administration of products.
Would highly recommend.

Marine was incredibly helpful

I recently reached out to Derma Institute with some questions about their microneedling courses and products, and I had the absolute pleasure of speaking with Marine. She was incredibly helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. From the moment our conversation started, she made me feel welcomed and supported.

Marine took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions and provided detailed information that helped me feel confident about the options available. Her professionalism and genuine warmth truly stood out. It's not often you come across someone so passionate about helping others in the industry.

Thank you, Marine, for making the experience so seamless and positive. Derma Institute is lucky to have such a dedicated and kind representative!

Poor use of face-to-face training

Poor use of face-to-face training, going over materials already issued for pre-learning. Very little practice with fillers not sufficient to practice those procedures.

Reply from Derma Institute

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed with the training day. As outlined in our course materials, we do revisit key elements from the pre-learning on the day to ensure all delegates are up to speed and safe to inject. This is an important part of maintaining high standards in clinical training.

Regarding the practical component, our afternoons are dedicated entirely to injecting live cosmetic models, and we arrange multiple model cases to allow hands-on experience across different treatments. We're sorry if this did not meet your expectations on the day.

A member of our team will be in touch to follow up and discuss your experience in more detail.

Best regards,

You could not wish for better - state of the art simply the best in London

The quality of treatments at Derma institute is in a league of its own and simply the best.

You could not wish for a higher level of professionalism, dedication. efficiency care and friendliness from the team: Sydney and Sophia.

The treatments were carried out with such skill and care by Dr Rasha and Dr Louise and their teams - and the results exceptional: exceeded by a long margin my expectations and made a tangibile difference. State of tge art welcoming venue, state of the art products and treatments, in a way no other clinic i had been to in the past offers.

I could not recommend more highly. I am so beyond lucky to have found Derma Institute. Nothing compares. Thank you so much Sydney thank you so much Sophia thank you so much Yasmin : you make all the difference
