Why Aesthetic Laser Training is Important

Physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, cosmetologists, and aestheticians are all gradually learning the benefits of aesthetic lasers for patient care. But in order for these professionals to provide aesthetic laser treatment, they first must understand the nuances of laser treatments, how it is beneficial for their practice, and most importantly, they must receive an Arizona license to practice laser treatments after passing a Arizona certified laser training course. We’ll cover all that and more in the remainder on this page. Let’s get started!

Why Laser Treatment Is Important

As a medical aesthetician, when you offer aesthetic laser treatments, you open yourself up to a world of opportunities. Laser treatments are popular and in high-demand. Therefore it stands to reason than when you earn a laser treatment certification you are also increasing your earning potential significantly.

Laser treatments are now an integral part of cosmetic health care in today’s society. Lasers are a non-invasive and cost-effective solutions for a number of aesthetic needs and areas of the body.  Lasers are used for hair removal, skin rejuvenation, and even tattoo removal. There is little room for doubt that the advent, and continual improvement upon, of laser treatments has, and will continue to, revolutionize modern skin treatments.

Offering cosmetic laser procedures including hair removal, skin rejuvenation, fractional skin resurfacing, skin tightening, tattoo removal, and other emerging procedures is essential to having a successful aesthetic practice or medical spa.

How to Add Laser Treatment Services to Your Offerings

Laser treatments are highly specialized and highly regulated at the state level. For that reason, those in Arizona wanting to add laser skin care treatments to their practice, they must first attend, pass, and receive state certification from an accredited laser training program in Arizona.

Current health care professionals, such as physicians, dermatologists, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses can instead take a health professional laser program where the program is significantly shorter than the program for cosmetologists or aestheticians because of the health care educational background.

Once you pass an Arizona laser training program and earn the certification from the state board, you can then advertise and perform your new treatments!

Benefits of Adding Laser Treatments to Grow Your Practices

Aesthetic laser treatments can be used to treat a variety of cosmetic concerns, and there is little or no down time post procedure. Laser treatments are in high demand because they are cost effective (much cheaper than plastic or cosmetic surgery), and the recovery time is almost zero when compared to cosmetic/plastic surgery.

Laser treatments are particularly sought after because of its ability to smooth wrinkles and tighten the skin; giving the skin a younger, rejuvenated look. Laser skin treatments are effective at:

  • eliminating fine lines on the upper lip, cheeks, and forehead
  • removing crow’s feet around the yeyes
  • softening frown lines
  • removing freckles and/or brown spots
  • removing tattoos
  • removing stretch marks
  • removing burst blood vessels
  • reducing redness in the skin
  • flattening scars
  • smoothing/polishing the skin’s surface to give it a more youthful appearance

As you can imagine, with all the listed benefits from laser treatments, more and more patients are turning towards these treatments as an alternative to surgery and as an additive to their normal skin care routine.
