Level 5

Level 5 Diploma in Aesthetic Practice

Study skin science, microneedling and chemical peels.

Bring professional judgement and skin science into your aesthetic learning. This Lips By Andreea course covers the responsibilities of aesthetic practice alongside the knowledge that supports microneedling and chemical-peel procedures.

The six-unit course structure includes CO503, CO504, CO505, CO506, AP602 and AP603. It starts with legal, regulatory and clinical responsibilities, then considers professional ethics, collaboration with healthcare professionals and advanced skin science. Procedure-focused sections bring those subjects together through consultation, planning, supervised practice and outcome review.

What you will study

  • Scope of practice, clinic safety, infection prevention, risk assessment and accurate records.
  • Professional ethics, consent, safeguarding, inclusive consultation and sustainability.
  • Collaboration, clinical communication, referral pathways and escalation.
  • Skin biochemistry, barrier function, inflammation, wound healing, pigmentation and ageing.
  • Microneedling principles, device considerations, suitability, treatment planning and aftercare.
  • Chemical-peel principles, formulation and depth, skin assessment, preparation, monitoring and review.

Learning and assessment preparation

Case discussions and workshops ask you to justify decisions rather than simply recall terminology. The presentation includes a suggested 12-week learning sequence and outlines how knowledge, observed clinical performance and portfolio evidence contribute to learning. This sequence describes the supplied teaching plan; delivery dates and supervised practice arrangements require confirmation with the academy.

Included materials

A 139-slide PowerPoint teaching presentation, PDF unit resources on legal requirements, professional standards, collaboration, skin needling and chemical peels, plus short-answer documents, procedure-related assessment materials, learner guidance and supporting records.

Who this course is for

Learners progressing in aesthetic practice who want to connect professional responsibilities with skin science and procedure planning. Practical training, assessment, entry requirements and certification arrangements should be agreed with the academy. Downloadable study materials alone do not establish clinical competence.

Learner testimonials

The chemical peel science in this diploma is exceptional. It thoroughly explores pKa values, acid molecular weights, peel depth mechanisms, and barrier neutralisation so you understand what is occurring at a cellular level rather than just applying a product. The clinical risk assessment forms and consent templates are ready to integrate directly into practice.

The microneedling modules in AP602 dive deep into needle gauge selection, mechanical trauma versus controlled micro-channeling, and post-procedure cellular signaling. The suggested 12-week learning structure kept my portfolio building organised while balancing a demanding clinic schedule.

Units CO503 through CO506 on clinical ethics, scope of practice, and referral pathways were particularly valuable. Too many courses gloss over the regulatory responsibilities and documentation requirements. This curriculum ensures you can provide defensible clinical rationales for every consultation.

This qualification bridges foundational skin therapy and advanced clinical practice with complete rigor. The 139-slide teaching presentation is supported by high-quality PDF resources on peel neutralisation, complication escalation, and barrier repair. A solid educational benchmark.

Be prepared for substantial written coursework and critical analysis; this is a demanding course that requires authentic clinical reasoning. The case studies require you to justify why you would defer or modify a chemical peel or microneedling session based on impaired barrier integrity and patient medical history.
