Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine
a one-to-one, personalized, mentorship-focused program with intensive clinical hands on practice
Transforming Careers in Aesthetic Medicine since 2014
Aesthetic Medicine Fellowship & Mentorship
Our fellowship is recognised as the first in the UK for doctors—a program tailored for medical professionals, focusing on advanced injectable treatments. Harley Street Institute has been running the Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine for over ten years.
Known for our comprehensive training, our graduates consistently open their clinics or are highly sought after by other clinics and agencies for prestigious positions.
At its core, the Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine has been specifically designed to develop and refine injecting skills and procedures required for a career in Aesthetic Medicine through mentorship, akin to a surgical rotation. Perfect for beginners and intermediates but also those with advanced experience
What to expect
The Fellowship offers a structured pathway into Aesthetic Medicine, addressing the challenge of not having a standardized injectable and skin curriculum.
The program provides ample hands-on training in a clinical practice setting by experienced clinicians, something that a Master’s in Aesthetic Medicine simply cannot provide.
Central to its curriculum is hands-on clinical practice on live patients, which differentiates it from most Master’s in Aesthetic Medicine or Postgraduate Diplomas in Aesthetic Medicine.
Providing over 84 hours of IN-CLINIC experience, students and staff complete a logbook to ensure necessary treatments have been completed. A Sample Calendar can be found here[link to a page to collate name info, professional email address, phone number, and interested date].

Frequently Ask Questions (FAQs)
The Fellowship In Aesthetic Medicine duration is 14 days over 6-8 weeks. The in-clinic days include observation as well as hands-on training on real clients.
The Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine is suitable for delegates who have completed Foundation Training in Aesthetics, that are highly motivated to expedite their skills and experience within the industry. It is also suitable for those who have been working within the industry but would like to tackle more advanced techniques and improve their confidence.
Our training courses are available to Doctors, Dentists and Nurses.
This is a unique training programme, aimed to escalate practitioner skills to an advanced level, with intense mentorship by experts who are passionate in delivering the best evidence-based teaching methods to date. The Fellowship has been designed with a holistic approach in mind, providing a strong foundation in the principles of Medical Aesthetics from skin, hyperkinetic lines, volume loss and early sagging skin to advanced facial contouring and knowledge of cos-medical treatments such as hyperhidrosis, bruxism and migraines. Additionally, we have constructed modular weekend workshops, where the Fellows come together, and have found this method of integrated learning to be both enjoyable and informative.
In order to make the most of your training, you are strongly encouraged to self-direct your learning using the resources from our online portal as well as further reading. Regular assessments and feedback sessions ensure that the mentorship and support that we provide is tailored specifically on an individual basis.
Unlike many other training programs, you will be integrated as part of the team during your stay, observing a range of treatments on our busy day clinics and required to assist and learn on the job as you would in a real clinic. We believe that this level of exposure, further to your training, is fundamental in obtaining a realistic insight into the business aspects of Aesthetic Medicine.
Yes, the Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine is better than an MSc from a university because many Master’s programs lack practical, hands-on experience in actual aesthetic clinics. While some may offer attachments in dermatology departments, these experiences often do not directly translate to comprehensive training in aesthetic procedures like botox injections, dermal fillers, and skin rejuvenation. Our fellowship program distinguishes itself through mentorship-style training, providing direct, practical learning opportunities essential for developing aesthetic medicine proficiency.
The Fellowship In Aesthetic Medicine (FAM) is composed of training certificates endorsed by Hamilton Fraser Cosmetic Insurance in the above mentioned modules.

Testimonials from our Training Delegates
"As a doctor of over a decade, I had already been US-trained and owned private practice providing high quality medical aesthetic services in Barbados. Even so, i felt it necessary to improve my skillset and broaden the range of services that I could offer to my very discerning clientele. My fellowship experience at Harley Street Institute in summer 2022 was invaluable to me as a professional. I had a hands-on, immersive experience that equipped with both the expertise and confidence to immediately offer a wider and more complex range of services at my practice, One Wellness Clinic, in Barbados. The experience meant that I’ve gained lifelong mentors and friends in Dr. Haq and Dr. Hena and it also connected me with a tremendous network of colleagues who continue to offer support years after completing fellowship training."
Crystal Haynes
"Everything from the trainers to the hands on experience to the online modules including the assessment, is all just FABBB!!! without a doubt the best place for training and leaving with confidence and knowledge!"
Khadija Rafique
"I had a wonderful experience during my time at Harley Street, working closely with Dr. Haq. I gained a lot of valuable insights into new techniques and how to effectively manage client interactions. The entire clinic atmosphere was professional, and working alongside the respected therapists gave me a clear understanding of what makes a clinic successful. Dr. Hana was also fantastic, always following up and ensuring we were on track. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who asks. A special mention to Pashma, who was incredibly helpful and quick to resolve any scheduling issues. Occasionally, the schedule would change, but this was understandable due to model availability. I was fortunate to have another fellow with me during the experience, which allowed for productive discussions even after the fellowship ended. However, if you’re there alone, you might get more hands-on time with models. Overall, it was a great experience, one I would absolutely recommend .."
