What Our Students Say

G.Krawczyk

At the start of this year, I enrolled at the London Institute of Aesthetics onto the Level 2 and 3 combined facial and electrotherapy facial course, to begin my journey into a new career in the beauty and aesthetics industry.

I couldn’t be happier that I found LIA to train with. Trisha and Nira are two of the warmest, funniest people to be around. Their extensive knowledge and experience in the industry are clear through both the practical and theory they provide on the course. They have so much time and care for every single person that walks through the doors of LIA from students to clients.

At LIA the classes are small, structured and thorough, and the support does not end when the class does.

I have since just finished my level 4 Laser and IPL hair removal and skin rejuvenation course with them. My experience at LIA over the past 3 months has left me feeling confident to begin this new career and I can’t wait to return to further my knowledge and complete my Level 5 later this year.

F.Siusta

Nira and Trisha are professional, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive. The sessions are delivered in such an informative, calm and approachable way, which makes learning feel both enjoyable and reassuring.

They do not only provide excellent professional training, they genuinely care about you and your journey. They support you with your next steps, your professional development, and even offer guidance and encouragement if you are planning to open your own skin clinic.

I have loved every moment of training with them. Through LIA, I discovered my passion for aesthetics and skincare, and I feel so grateful for the confidence and knowledge they have helped me build.

A.Kokhanchuk

I will definitely be back for further development and my next VTCT level trainings. Thank you, Nira and Trisha, for such a wonderful experience.

I had the most wonderful time at LIA level 3 access to aesthetics course! I cannot believe I didn’t train with Nira and Trish sooner. Not only is the education top notch, their passion, sincerity and professionalism is beyond reproach. I genuinely thoroughly enjoyed myself and really excited to take on the next level! Thank you, thank you! Your mentorship is most invaluable.

S.Disalvo
