The Laser Foundation course covers the different lasers on the market and their effect on skin rejuvenation and hair removal, as well as specifications of light, and safety procedures related to laser handling. This course will be awarded to those in the industry with a beauty background. The Laser Foundation Course is valued at R15,000, and will be awarded to individuals with beauty background.

All Beautique Academy courses include reading material, video tutorials, PowerPoint presentations and an online quiz to test the student's knowledge.
