About Us
Aesthetic Institute and Training
BC Medical Clinic College is the training arm of BC Medical Aesthetic. We teach medical aesthetics inside the clinic that our graduates learn on.
Who We Are
The college runs from 1214-2929 Barnet Hwy in Coquitlam, sharing premises and equipment with the BC Medical Aesthetic treatment clinic. Students train on devices that are in daily clinical use, which is not the same experience as training on a machine bought for a classroom.
We are straightforward about what a certificate does. It gets you assessed as competent on a device and gives you something to show an employer. What it does not do is guarantee a job, and anyone promising otherwise is selling you something.
Training Programs
Programs cover the fundamentals that decide whether a technician is safe: client consultation, skin typing, contraindications, device settings and why they change, sanitation, and what to do when a treatment goes wrong. Practical work is supervised and assessed rather than simply observed.
