Hands-on training

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, chemical peels have ranked in the top 5 most cosmetic minimally invasive procedures over the last several years. So, as a licensed esthetician, if your “toolkit” or list of services offered doesn’t come with expertise in chemical peel services, you are likely missing out on a growing base of clients.

When performing chemical peels, you must follow the rules and regulations of your State Board of Cosmetology and practice within the scope of your state’s esthetician license. As a licensed esthetician, NYS limits you to light and moderate peels.

At Atelier Esthetique, we offer a 2-day class where students learn through lecture and hands-on practice how to perform chemical peels safely and maximize the treatment benefits for clients. Upon successful completion of the class, students will receive a NYS-approved certificate with the curriculum code.

What You Will Learn

Chemical peels are acid solutions applied to the epidermis that dissolve the outermost layer of the skin, allowing it to peel off as the days pass. Ideal for treating skin conditions and imperfections, chemical peels are an excellent treatment for melasma, acne, sun damage, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles. Chemical peels are often referred as chemical exfoliation and epidermal exfoliation.

In this class students will learn how to use glycolic, salicylic acid, Jessner’s, retinol blends and enzymes. This class will also cover an array of topics including:

Client Consultation and how to customize treatments
How to assess skin type and select the appropriate Image Skin Care treatment for your clients
Skin biology and the importance of using peel solutions formulated with skin constituents and biocompatible ingredients
Structure of the Skin, Aging, Skin Disorders, and Skin Cancer
State Regulation of Scope of Practice
Review of FDA Role in Classification of Cosmetics and Drugs
How to best address rosacea, hyperpigmentation, acne, aging skin and other conditions
The Low Dose Approach: How to get results without causing skin trauma
Pre-Treatment and Post Treatment Protocol
On day two you will have hands-on practice of the Chemical Exfoliation procedure
