Microdermabrasion is the safe and effective way of eliminating or reducing fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring etc. It works by firing Aluminium Oxide crystals and the skin and vacuuming them back up. The cost to technicians is few pounds but many salons are charging upwards of £50 for this treatment. It is recommended that clients receive a course of treatment rather than a stand alone session, meaning good client retention.
Students must have completed an accredited facial course prior to this course. No model is required for this session, as you will give and receive this treatment. This course is accredited by The Guild of Beauty Therapists.
This course comprises:
1/2 day – Home learning
1/2 day – Practical session and assessment
1/2 day – Review session (non-compulsory)
Home learning – Comprised of online learning materials and links to industry standards websites. These need to be read and the websites visited and explored. There is also an online test that needs to be completed before the practical session.
Morning/Afternoon or Evening Practical Session
Practical training, demonstrations and assessment.
Review session – This is a non-compulsory aspect of your course, and should be viewed as ongoing support and a problem solving session. These sessions are run on a regular basis and need to pre-booked.
