Aesthetic Foundations & Advanced Techniques Course

The Aesthetic Foundations & Advanced Techniques Course at The Shimaa Academy is a comprehensive training program designed to build, refine, and elevate your skills in modern aesthetics. This all in-one course combines theoretical knowledge, hands on practice, and advanced creative techniques to prepare students for successful careers as certified aesthetic professionals.

The journey begins with an in-depth exploration of theory covering skin anatomy, facial structure, injection preparation, and the science behind dermal fillers, neurotoxins, and skincare. Students gain a strong foundation in both the technical and artistic aspects of aesthetics while becoming immersed in The Shimaa Academy’s culture of excellence, safety, and professionalism.
Training then transitions into hands on learning, where students practice their techniques in a clinic-style environment that mirrors a real medical spa. Under the close supervision of our expert Master Instructors, students work with live models, conduct client consultations, and use professional-grade products to provide outstanding guest experiences. This immersive setting allows students to perfect every skill with precision and confidence.

As the course progresses, students enter the creative and professional development phase  focusing on speed, accuracy, and advanced treatment customization. Here, students refine their artistry, work more independently under instructor supervision, and build a strong professional portfolio that showcases their work and growth.
