This
3 day program is designed to provide you with indepth hands on
experience. The first day will cover everything from "what
makes a laser work" to "different skin types (Fitzpatrick
Chart)" and "client selection". The program also
includes laser safety, physics, the importance of determining
the proper amounts of energy, parameters, wavelengths, chromophores,
and pulse duration.
An introduction to the different types and differences in lasers,
and basic laser hair removal theory and techniques. Plus we will
layout all the knowledge necessary to enter this exciting field
and perform laser hair removal.
This program
is great for non-medical technicians to enhance "hire-ability"
in an aesthetic medical practice (cosmetic surgeon), medical spa,
or other practices using Laser technology with physician oversite.
Doctors, Nurses, Estheticians, Electrologists will also greatly
benifit from this preparation .
Gaining this
certificate shows potential employers that you're motivated and
educated about aesthetic laser use. You may use the certificate
of training as evidence of required laser safety training when
seeking employment in a medical office that offers these procedures,
or in your own business in States that allow for use of lasers
by non medical personnel. Those already engaged in Laser Hair
Removal procedures may use the certificate as evidence of Laser
Safety Training.
