Facial Treatments and Skin Care

Facial Treatments and Skin Care
This course combines the best of both worlds, we start your online learning through the beauty guild portal then once that is complete you begin the SQA Facial therapy treatment techniques course at SCQF Level 7.  This is a flexible learning course with a minimum of 4 days attendance depending on your experience and qualifications. We recommend the course is done over 8 day sessions treating clients to cover all aspects of the qualification.
 
The demonstrations are followed by students repeating the treatment working towards the standards required. On successful completion you can go on to more advanced training like microneedling, chemical peels, LED and other therapies.
