Within recent years, laser and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) has become a standard part of the beauty industry. In order to make the most of your practice as a beauty therapist, it is wise to hold the qualifications that will enable you to carry out these treatments. Today we shine the spotlight on the range of laser and IPL courses that we offer at the Academy of Beauty Training with this goal in mind.
The Courses
There are a number of options when it comes to becoming qualified in laser and IPL, and at the Academy of Beauty Training, we are pleased to offer the following courses:
- Fast Track Laser & IPL Course Package
- Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Course (Level 4 Course)
- Laser Course in Nd: Yag (Level 4) Course
- Combined Laser and Intense Pulsed Light IPL (Level 4) Course
- Laser Rules and Regulations Including Laser Policies and Procedures Course
Whichever course you opt for, you will benefit from the necessary amount of time for you to process the knowledge and skills to carry out the desired treatments.
Legal Requirements
In year 2016, it became a legal requirement that beauty therapist carrying out any laser treatments should have at least a Level 2 and Level 3 qualification in Beauty Therapy prior to taking a Level 4 course. As the Laser & IPL courses are Level 4, it is necessary to hold these qualifications in order to complete one of these courses. There is a way around this if you would prefer not to do the Beauty Therapy Level 2 course (on the basis of not offering clients treatments such as manicure, pedicures and waxing etc.), which involves completing the Beauty Therapy Facial Course instead, before moving onto Level 3. We want to enable you to achieve your ambitions, as well as giving you the confidence, knowledge and skills to work safely and legally within the public sector.
Our Experience
We have over 16 years of experience within the laser industry, so we know what can be gained from completing such courses. Your clients will benefit from what you take from us by having complete trust and confidence in your ability and a professional. As part of our course package, we also provide you with your first year of Beauty Insurance free.
The Outcome
On completion of your course, you will receive a certificate, which qualifies you in your course. These are all recognised by leading insurance companies and government licencing departments, so you can begin this work, or continue to practice if you have already been working in this field prior to 2016 when the laws changed.
