The promise. A routine appointment can change in seconds. Rehearse the response now.

The CODE RED Readiness Course is a free three lesson interactive course for aesthetic clinicians. It helps you decide whether a post treatment concern is expected, needs review or could be an emergency, then rehearse the first safe response while help is arranged.

A routine appointment can change in seconds. This short interactive course puts you in the moment the client becomes worried and looks to you. Commit to the decision, reveal the reasoning and rehearse what happens next. It does not teach remote diagnosis or replace insured practical complications training.

Frequently asked

Before youenrol.

  • Does this teach complication treatment protocols?

    No. It teaches recognition, structured assessment, escalation and documentation. Treatment protocols require training, prescribing arrangements, insurer approval and local clinical governance.

  • Is the full CODE RED course included?

    No. This is the free three-lesson Readiness Course. The full £297 CODE RED course covers the wider complication categories, first-response reasoning, handover, documentation and case practice.

The best aesthetic work is the kind no one notices. People should just think you look well.
