Hi and welcome to my course. My name is Kandace and I will be your teacher. I have worked in the health care industry for ten years and in the aesthetics industry for three. I have just moved into teaching and am so happy to be able to find a platform that allows me to connect with students and share my knowledge.
This is my Body Contouring course and in this program you will learn everything that you need to know to be able to offer this service in your Spa or Salon. This course has been designed to allow even the most beginner aesthetician the ability to follow and learn.
This course is very informative but compact and it is highly recommended that you take notes throughout. In this program you will learn about infection prevention, the anatomy of the skin, body fat, what body contouring is, the types of contouring, contraindications, step by step instructions and after care. There will be quizzes throughout the course and a 100% is required to receive a certificate from my company.
Also included in every one of my courses is a separate Infection Prevention Certificate which is a requirement for any Spa or Salon licensing.
I hope that you enjoy my course and please reach out with any questions or concerns via email as i do not answer messages on udemy.
