The Level 4 Laser Course may be the one to help get your career in laser therapy started.
Answering why, how, and what next?
With IPL, the skin no longer needs to be subjected to disguised tortures like waxing and epilators or the latest miracle cream.
Most of these creams can reprogram your skin but fail to do what they promise on the packet.
Instead, there are many options to help clients, thanks to the latest technology. For example, laser hair removal is an industry that is set to increase by replacing outdated waxing and shaving regimes.
In addition, laser hair removal offers a permanent solution which means when hair is gone with laser treatment, it is gone for good.
No more factoring in a leg shave or waxing into your routine for going out on those special occasions. With just a few treatments with laser and zap, the unwanted hair is on its way out.
Laser skin rejuvenation is great in cosmetic treatments with visible results that will give your clients confidence to achieve blemish-free skin.
