Permanent Hair Reduction

Laser hair reduction is a sought-after service in today’s beauty industry. Using the power and accuracy of lasers, professional estheticians can greatly reduce hair growth on clients, so they can enjoy smooth skin for years. New York School of Esthetics is proud to offer an advanced course for licensed professionals to learn this permanent hair reduction technique.

The 32-hour course is a full four-day course that teaches the theory and physics behind the treatment, how to operate the laser equipment, safety and OSHA standards, and much more. Students practice the skill on each other and live models. Completing the course results in a certificate that could open up more work opportunities.

When a laser technician uses laser equipment for permanent hair reduction, the laser’s concentrated pulses of light destroy the hair that it targets. This procedure does not completely remove unwanted hair forever, but it greatly reduces the amount of hair, and the results often last for years. Our permanent hair reduction course teaches licensed beauty professionals how to perform this procedure, so they can expand their services and increase their client base.

New York licensing. As of right now, New York does not require laser hair reduction technicians to become licensed by the state. However, there is a bill under review that may require a laser technician to take a class from an NYS licensed curriculum and pass a licensing exam from the state. If you take our permanent hair reduction course before this bill passes, you will be grandfathered in, which means you will automatically acquire the necessary license to practice laser hair reduction.

As a hybrid esthetics school, we offer full-time and part-time schedules for our students. New York School of Esthetics is accredited by the NACCAS and prepares students to sit for the State Exam. Besides our Esthetics program, we also offer a Paramedical Esthetics program, a Waxing program, and three advanced courses for licensed professionals. Unlike some other schools, we focus on science-based skincare rather than the current trends. Finally, our staff and instructors are an excellent support network for students who want to start their own business.

We are proud to be a Dermalogica Partnership School, and our students receive Dermalogica products in their student kits.

To enroll in the class, you must have a current esthetics license, cosmetology license, massage therapy license, acupuncture license, electrology certification, or be a licensed RN, LPN, Physician Assistant, or Physician.

The permanent hair reduction course takes four full days, including nights and weekends. Contact us to inquire about our upcoming schedule.
