Medical Esthetics Certificate
A three-part advanced training program for spa professionals
The Medical Esthetic Certificate program consists of three day-long classes covering popular esthetics treatments including:
-
Dermaplaning
-
Chemical Peel
-
Microneedling
Through hands-on training, this program gives you the tools needed to perform these treatments more confidently and effectively. Each class covers topic theory followed by a demonstration, then students perform the treatment under the supervision of the instructor.
As the medical esthetics industry becomes increasingly more competitive, staying up to date with the latest procedures and techniques is crucial for a successful career. Spas and salons are looking for professionals with advanced training beyond what is required by TDLR. ICE&M aims to provide exceptional education opportunities so students and licensed professionals can further their career.
Cost: $1000 with a $200 nonrefundable deposit
Attendance: Students must complete the three classes to earn the certificate, each class is offered once a quarter
Chemical Peel
Chemical peels are used to improve the appearance of the skin. This class covers common acids used in chemical peel treatments including Glycolic acid, Saliyclic acid, Lactic acid, Jessners and TCA. Students will learn what each acid is used for, proper application procedure and post-treatment care.
Cost: $275 with a $120 nonrefundable deposit, no kit included.
Time: 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning is a safe and highly effective exfoliating treatment performed by a licensed esthetician. Using a surgical blade the superficial layer of dead skin and the vellus hair is removed from the face leaving the skin feeling smooth and looking radiant. The class begins with theory followed by a live demonstration on a model. After lunch students will pair up and perform the treatment on each other under the supervision of the instructor. The class includes lunch, a certificate upon completion and a take home kit.
Cost: $325 with a $120 non-refundable deposit, includes kit.
Time: 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a form of Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) which creates a controlled non-thermal injury underneath the skin surface, inducing the body to respond through the formation of new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers as well as capillary improvement through better blood supply in the treated area. The skin plumps in response to this stimulus, reducing the appearance of scars, and fine lines and other skin texture changes. The class begins with theory then after lunch there will be a live demonstration on a model. Students will pair up and perform the treatment on each other under the supervision of the instructor. The class includes lunch and a certificate upon completion.
Cost: $500 with a $120 non-refundable deposit, includes kit with numbing crème, treatment serum and 10 pen tips.
Time: 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Advanced Classes
The Institute of Cosmetology, Esthetics & Massage makes it a priority to provide students with opportunities to continue their education and enhance their skill set. Classes begin with theory followed by a live demonstration then students perform the treatment themselves to earn their certificate of completion.
Advanced Hair Removal
Brazilian Advanced Wax
This class will teach students the details of Brazilian waxing. While clear, even, skin is a great benefit, a Brazilian wax offers lasting positive effects on the skin and body. The hair is pulled out from the root and as the hair grows back, it becomes thinner, softer, and weaker; leading to fewer complications, like ingrown hairs. A Brazilian wax exfoliates your skin's most sensitive and intimate area and removes dead, dry skin cells. Brazilian waxing also removes damaged skin cells allowing healthy new skin tissue to grow while eliminating dirt and debris found in clogged pores in the lower body, reducing acne breakouts in the pubic area.
Fundamentals of Threading
This class will teach students the details of this hair removal technique which is used for eyebrows, as well as lips, cheeks, chin and forehead. Cotton threads are twisted to pull the hair at the follicle level. Unlike tweezing where single hairs are pulled out one at a time, threading can remove them very easily and efficiently in less time and effort. Threading is a safe hair removal for people who have controlled skin conditions like rosacea or eczema. Application of makeup on a threaded face is better, as it lays smooth on the surface of the skin. Benefits of threading include brighter skin tone and provides a better environment for product actives to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin.
