The career expansion every UK Doctor should consider
As an NHS or private practitioner, you’re no stranger to the mounting pressures in modern medicine: ever-growing patient lists, shrinking resources, and administrative burdens that leave little room for the clinical excellence you trained for. With burnout rates exceeding 60% across specialties and real-term pay declining, many forward-thinking doctors are discovering an unexpected path to professional renewal – medical aesthetics.

Why Aesthetics aligns perfectly with your medical expertise
Your years of rigorous medical training provide an excellent foundation for solid start in aesthetic medicine:
- Anatomy knowledge reduces complication risks significantly
- Diagnostic precision will enable you to deliver truly bespoke treatment plans
- Patient management skills ensure exceptional standards of care
At Avanti, we’ve trained over 3,000 medical professionals to become confident, skilled professionals who deliver exceptional results. We’re proud to be the leading choice for medical professionals seeking the highest quality aesthetics training.
Supplemental income
Consider these typical earnings for UK based doctors:
Existing Clinical Commitment | Aesthetics Commitment | Additional Earnings from Aesthetics |
---|---|---|
3 days/week | 2 dedicated clinic days | £48,000 – £200,000 |
Locum shifts | Ad-hoc/ Evenings | £32,000 – £100,000 |
Full-time | Weekend clinics | £24,000 – £100,000 |
But beyond the numbers, most of our doctor-delegates say they feel a sense of satisfaction with more positive patient relationships, creative treatment planning, and autonomy over their schedules.
Why Medical Professionals choose Avanti’s Fundamental 5
When comparing aesthetics courses, doctors consistently prioritise three non-negotiables:
- True Clinical Confidence
Unlike programmes where delegates share models or “pass the syringe,” our Fundamental 5 course ensures you:- Treat your own patients start-to-finish
- Experience strict 1:1 supervision
- Manage full patient journeys independently
- Safety-First Training
We go beyond theoretical complication management:- Live demonstrations
- Dynamic facial assessment protocols
- Small cohorts (max group size of 6 delegates to a trainer) in our Central London clinical facility
- Ongoing Clinical Support
Our graduates receive what others charge extra for:- 24/7 trainer access for emergency advice
- Business launch support (set-up, insurance, pharmacy accounts, etc)
- Treatment planning assistance via the Avanti App

5 Toxin, Filler + Lip Courses Included
Our Fundamental 5 course delivers comprehensive training across five critical areas. From conducting the initial consultation through to providing aftercare instructions, you will guide your patients through the entire process from start to finish in the following training areas:
- Upper Face Toxin – Learn the most popular toxin treatment indications
- Advanced Toxin – Assess, diagnose, and treat specific advanced toxin indications
- Cheek Enhancement – Enhance and restore volume to the mid-face and cheeks
- Nasolabial Folds and Marionette Lines – Learn how to treat nose to mouth lines and mouth to chin lines
