Ofqual is the UK Government regulator for qualifications. An Ofqual-regulated qualification is on the Regulated Qualifications Framework, assessed against a published specification, and recognised by major UK aesthetics insurers.

No. Our Foundation pathway is designed specifically for non-medics. You'll build the underpinning anatomy, physiology and clinical knowledge required to progress safely toward Level 7.

Typically 12 months including theory, mentored practical hours, case studies, and final assessments. Conversion candidates usually complete in 3–6 months depending on prior evidence.

Yes. All our qualifications meet the requirements of the major UK aesthetics insurers.

Yes. Pay a 50% deposit, then spread the remaining balance over 12 interest-free monthly payments collected by GoCardless Direct Debit. There are no fees and no interest. This is a payment schedule invoiced by Matrix — not a credit or finance product.

No. Matrix Aesthetics Academy is not authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority and does not offer credit or finance. Our 50% + 12-month plan is an interest-free payment schedule invoiced directly and collected by GoCardless Direct Debit. If you'd prefer a regulated split-payment option, you can choose Klarna at invoice — Klarna is the regulated provider in that case, not Matrix.

Yes. Klarna is available at invoice as an alternative way to spread the cost. Klarna's standard eligibility and terms apply.
