About Aeluris

Not a beauty school. A professional institution.

Every other laser training provider in the UK teaches on Q-Switched technology — the industry standard of yesterday. Aeluris Academy was built around one machine that defines the industry of tomorrow: the PicoSure Pro.

Founded in the UK with a mandate to become the world's leading laser education institution, Aeluris is the only academy that teaches the science, the clinical application, and the business of advanced laser aesthetics at the level the global market demands.

Our VTCT Level 4 and Level 5 programmes are OFQUAL-regulated, government loan eligible, and the mandatory qualification for commercial laser operation in the UK. Our online CPD courses bring Jarek's clinical expertise to practitioners in 40+ countries worldwide.

The UK's most competitive all-inclusive price

At £1,995 all-inclusive — VTCT registration, the £750 examiner assessment fee, and all course materials — Aeluris is price-matched with the UK's most respected laser training providers. No hidden costs. No surprises at checkout. The price you see is the price you pay.

The only UK academy training on PicoSure Pro

While every other UK laser academy still teaches on legacy Q-Switched technology, Aeluris trains exclusively on the Cynosure PicoSure Pro — the picosecond system defining the next decade of laser aesthetics.

UK base · global clinical reach

Our UK training centre delivers VTCT-accredited qualifications in Berkshire. Our online CPD programmes carry Jarek's clinical expertise to practitioners in the UAE, US, Australia, Europe and beyond. Dubai training centres open 2026.

Legal Requirement

In the UK, without this qualification, you cannot legally operate.

In the United Kingdom, operating a laser device commercially without a VTCT Level 4 qualification is a licensing violation. Local councils require it for premises licensing. Insurers require it for professional indemnity cover. UK employers require it as a minimum hiring standard. For practitioners outside the UK, our online CPD programmes provide the clinical depth and credentials that serious international practitioners demand.

Local Council Licence

UK councils require VTCT Level 4 as proof of competency before issuing a premises licence for laser treatments.

Professional Insurance

No reputable insurer will cover you for laser tattoo removal without a recognised Level 4 qualification. The VTCT is the benchmark they accept.

Clinic Employment

Every established aesthetic clinic in the UK — and increasingly internationally — requires VTCT Level 4 as a minimum hiring requirement.

Internationally Acknowledged

VTCT qualifications are acknowledged across 56 countries through the ENIC-NARIC network — including the USA, Canada, Australia, and Europe. For practitioners outside the UK, a VTCT certificate is respected evidence of rigorous formal training. Local licensing requirements vary by country.

UK students: Advanced Learner Loans are available to fund your Level 4 or Level 5 qualification. You do not need to pay upfront. International students: our online CPD programmes start from £97 with no prerequisites.

Limited Places

Be part of the first Aeluris Academy cohort.

Founding student pricing. Locked permanently.

Aeluris Academy is launching its first UK cohorts now. We are deliberately limiting founding cohort sizes to a maximum of 4–6 students per intake — ensuring every founding student receives more hands-on time, more direct access to Jarek, and better outcomes than any larger course could provide. Founding students receive our launch pricing permanently. When we raise prices, your rate is locked.

Max 6 students per cohort

Not 12. Not 8. Six at most. Every founding cohort is intimate by design — maximum hands-on time, minimum waiting.

Price locked permanently

Your founding rate never changes. When Aeluris Academy raises prices after the first cohorts — and we will — your rate stays exactly where it is today.

Direct access to Jarek

Every session is led personally by Jarek Otrębski — not a delegate trainer or assistant. You learn directly from one of the UK's few PicoSure Pro specialists.

⚡ Founding cohort places — strictly limited
Level 4: 6 places per cohort · Level 5: 4 places per cohort · Masterclass: 6 places per cohort

Dubai is not a future plan.

Jarek Otrębski

Head of Clinical Education · Aeluris Academy

With years of hands-on experience operating the PicoSure Pro — the world's most advanced picosecond laser system — Jarek Otrębski is one of the most qualified laser tattoo removal specialists in the United Kingdom. His clinical knowledge spans laser physics, advanced skin typing, SPMU removal, and combination therapy protocols that most training providers do not teach.

Every Aeluris curriculum module has been developed from Jarek's real clinical practice. Students don't learn theory that was written in a textbook — they learn from cases treated in the clinic the week before their course begins.

PicoSure Pro SpecialistOne of a small number of UK practitioners with extensive clinical hours on the Cynosure PicoSure Pro system.
VTCT Qualified EducatorHolds all qualifications required to teach and assess students for VTCT Level 4 and Level 5 programmes.
Fitzpatrick 4–6 Clinical SpecialistExtensive experience treating darker skin tones — a critical skill that most UK providers do not teach adequately.
LaserYou Clinic, BurnhamSenior practitioner at one of the UK's most respected independent laser clinics operating since 2017.

Aeluris Academy operates as a VTCT Approved Centre for UK qualifications. All UK students are registered directly with VTCT and receive their OFQUAL-regulated qualification certificate upon successful completion. Online CPD students receive Aeluris Academy CPD certificates. Jarek Otrębski holds all required teaching and assessing qualifications. For international practitioners: your local licensing requirements are separate from and in addition to any training certificates. Please check your country's health authority requirements.

What our graduates say.

I trained at two other academies before Aeluris. The difference is not comparable. The clinical depth, the hands-on time on the PicoSure Pro, the knowledge Jarek brings — this is what professional training should be.

As a practitioner in Dubai, finding laser training at this clinical level is nearly impossible. The Aeluris PicoSure Pro masterclass didn't give me a Dubai licence — it gave me the clinical knowledge to be significantly better at my job. Worth every penny.

The Fitzpatrick 4–6 module is something no other academy teaches properly. I work with darker skin tones every single day in my clinic. This course made me significantly safer and more effective. Genuinely transformative.
