I have been going to empire for treatments since they started. I have been to the Chester one and also Speke. Treatments are always done with the teachers there and under their supervision. The prices are good and the staff are very friendly and you can also nip in and ask for one of the tutors for a consultation if unsure what treatments to have.

“Model” review
I have been coming to Empire (as a “model”) for some time now. I always feel in completely safe hands. The tutors are professional and oversee the students carry out the training. I have full confidence in the team at Empire, insomuch I recommend to all my friends. I’ve never had a negative experience with any of the treatments and the aftercare information provided is amazing. Very happy and returning customer.
Brilliant Experience
Great training experience and Edel was simply amazing. Edel made me feel so confident when I had completed the training and along with my trainer there is a fantastic team who are at the ready to support you post-training…..great company 💛

This company is a disgrace
This company is a disgrace for training,
Sent a YouTube video to cover how to do dissolving, which is absolutely appalling if in an emergency how can 0 hands on experience help?
I done pathways, basics & advanced filler & skin boosters
I done half a naso, 1 set of lips, no cheeks no chin and one side of the jaw, and then handed a certificate to say I can do it all? How can they qualify anyone with injectables with no hands on expierence and even when it is, very little.
As for skin boosters they didn’t explain any difference in which types could be meso or bap techniques,
I done no facial meso , half a face with bap and 3 injections of lumi eyes,
They sell you a dream with loads of young girls knowing no better especially, which keeps there business coming back

Amazing
I initially came to train with Empire last year for my pathway into injectables. Fast forward a year and I've came back for a 2 day 1-1. I had Katie last year for a few days and then for both days this time! She's absolutely amazing she is so thorough, knowledgeable & explains everything in so much detail until you feel confident. I had plenty live models & felt comfortable straight away getting on after my theory. Katie is so easy to get on with and makes your experience so much nicer! I've enjoyed it so much and can't wait to do more. I'd definitely recommend. Thank you.
Professional with a genuine passion for Aesthetics
I recently had the pleasure of completing my training at the Empire Academy of Aesthetics in Warrington, and I cannot speak highly enough of my experience. I attended Pathway to Aesthetics Training and am now fully qualified and insured through Insync insurance. From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was greeted with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine passion for aesthetics. The instructors, Nicole Brindley and Hannah Deakin are absolute gems who made my journey educational and enjoyable.
Nicole Brindley's enthusiasm and expertise made each training session a delight. Her energy is infectious, and her ability to convey complex concepts in a clear and engaging manner is truly remarkable. Learning under her guidance was an absolute privilege, and I am grateful for the wealth of knowledge and skills she imparted.
Hannah Deakin's attention to detail and commitment to excellence set the standard for the academy. Her thorough approach ensured that no aspect of the training was overlooked, and her dedication to our success was evident in every lesson. I am incredibly grateful for her guidance throughout my time at Empire Academy of Aesthetics. And there is a great WhatsApp support group for alumni.
I cannot recommend Empire Academy of Aesthetics highly enough. Thanks again, Ladies!

This company leads irish clients up the garden path. I'm.in a group of irish girls who trained here after being told we would be grand in ireland and we would get insured for all treatments. This is NOT TRUE!!! we are all very disappointed, we've been led up the garden path. Solicitor letters have been sent. Don't buy the lies.

Yes I left a good review when I finished my training this was because I was completely new to the industry and didn't actually realise how bad it was till I left and started speaking to other practitioners... we all soon realised how bad it was .
I did one side of the face when doing naso lines on one client and on two others a did one half of their lips and I was given a certificate for this ...shocking really , if you havnt got the models you should be offered another day to come when there are models... not given a certificate when you haven't even completed a full treatment. I've had to go and do some more training elsewhere.
Empire clearly know the rules and regulations of Ireland and should have told us , wether we researched ourselves or not you should still be told what you will legally be able to do .. I message the mnager before going over to empire to see if I'd get insured to do botox as a non medic and I was told yes, when that wasn't true at all and they would have known that . They just want your money 💰
They read through stuff about emergency situations but don't physicaly show you. Honestly I would go elsewhere to train to anyone thinking of going . trainers that have worked there and left will tell you the same...
The managers name was Natalie and I have the messages in my phone , I asked her specifically , I said even as a non medic? I'm.not a nurse or doctor?.. and she said yes. The trainers were all lovely I have nothing bad to say about them personally it's just overall how the place was run that was bad.

All the staff were fantastic & more than happy to share all their years of experience. Rachel went even further giving up her one day to accommodate myself on a Sunday,Definitely feel confident going forward I genuinely loved every minute of all the courses & would highly recommend Warrington for training.
