8. Specialist HR and recruitment aesthetic consultant services
Many aesthetic clinics use general HR support companies to ensure they are HR compliant or to help them manage challenging HR situations. However most general HR companies do not understand the specific job roles or the complexities of an aesthetic clinic and team.

10. Mentorship for Medical Aestheticians and Skin and laser therapists with a specialist aesthetic consultant
Therapist led services can be a profitable and essential part of aesthetic clinic services and development to offer a varied treatment portfolio. For medical aestheticians that have completed level 3 and level 4 training there is little or no industry support to provide ongoing mentorship to nurture their career development and support aesthetic clinic owners to develop and provide a successful therapist service. AB Aesthetic services have recognised this need within the industry and expanded their specialist aesthetic consultant team to include Martine Jarman.

11. Aesthetic Nurse Consultant and Mentorship
As the aesthetics industry has grown the number of nurses entering aesthetics and opening their own aesthetic practice has significantly increased. Aesthetic clinical training can often be 1 or 2 days practical training often with no follow up support or mentorship to hand hold new nurse injectors during the initial phase of their aesthetic development. The early stage of an aesthetic nurse career is a crucial time, nurses from the NHS are used to many avenues of support and it can be a lonely environment for independent practitioners. If you are a new nurse injector or nurse prescriber look for a mentor or specialist aesthetic nurse consultant that resonates with yourself and your own aesthetic journey. At AB Aesthetic services we offer the support from nurse prescriber Jenna Nicholas-Hassall who works with several Key opinion leaders and global aesthetic educators as well as running her own independent aesthetic clinic. Jenna understands the pressures and pitfalls of launching an aesthetic nursing career and as well as offering skilled clinical mentorship she will also share insights from her own journey to success. https://www.abaestheticservices.co.uk/our-team/
