Laser Therapist

Laser Therapists apply non-ionising radiation treatments for skin rejuvenation, tattoo removal, pigmentation reduction, and hair removal. They have specialist skills and are able to safely use Intense Pulsed Light and laser technologies.

As a Laser Therapist you will be consulting with your clients, analysing their skin condition (or tattoos) — then designing and evaluating the most suitable laser treatment and rejuvenation program.
