About the Program
The Most Complete Path to a Laser Career
Expect real hands-on practice with live models on professional-grade devices, the same approach that gives our Laser Technician Diploma graduates over 100 hours of clinical laser experience. Advanced training extends into treatments such as laser skin resurfacing and other skin-rejuvenation technologies [confirm curriculum, duration and prerequisites], with safety, client assessment and aftercare at the centre of every lesson.
Technical skill is only part of success. You’ll also strengthen the client-relationship and business skills that keep clients returning, from consultations and communication to pricing, marketing and running your own practice. Graduates are prepared for roles in medical spas, dermatology and aesthetics clinics, or to launch their own laser business, with career support to help you take the next step.
