Esthetician's Role In Managing Hyperpigmentation

Professionals Only

This four-hour lecture-based course is to better assist licensed professionals who want to learn the background and options for managing hyperpigmentation, with a particular focus on global skin of color. 

There’s no one size fits all approach to treating and combating hyperpigmentation, but rather multiple factors that contribute to this stubborn skin condition. It’s important for the licensed professional to understand the science and background on hyperpigmentation in order to create treatment protocols to lessen the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

Each licensed professional will receive important background information such as a review of skin anatomy, consultation/contraindications, treatment protocols, aftercare suggestions, and business building tips to help their spa/salon implement the service
