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 Microneedling certificate 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 what microneedling is, how it works, the anatomy of the skin, different skin conditions that can be treated with microneedling, how the skin ages, when you should not preform microneedling, step by step instructions and after care.
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.
