What Types of Skin Treatments Can You Learn from a Cosmetology Course?

Cosmetology is the practice of beauty treatments on the skin, hair, and nails. Any type of cosmetic treatment has a direct impact on a person’s looks and appearance. Hence, patients are always looking for experienced and certified cosmetologists for their treatment to prevent any bad outcomes.

What Do You Learn in Our Cosmetology Course?

1. ChemicalPeels

Chemical peels,  is a treatment that rejuvenates the skin and makes it glowing. a chemical solution is applied to the skin which causes a controlled injury to the outer layers of the skin. As part of the body’s natural healing process, the outermost layer of the skin gets peeled off. This makes way for youthful, glowing skin to emerge that looks firmer, smoother, and brighter. This treatment is used for hyperpigmentation, signs of ageing, and scarring.

2. Microdermabrasion / Skin Polishing

This is a common treatment found in the curriculum of most cosmetology courses. A hand-held minimally abrasive instrument is used on the skin to gently exfoliate the upper layers of the skin. This method removes the superficial layers of the skin and allows new skin to emerge in its place. Microdermabrasion is used to treat light scarring, acne spots, signs of ageing, and sun damage. The rejuvenated skin looks radiant and glowing, improving the texture of the skin.

3. Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers or tissue fillers are injections that are used to signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles. Silicone fillers are injected under the skin tissue near the region of eyes, nose, and mouth. This gives the skin in that area a firmer, plumper, and more youthful appearance.

4. Laser Hair Reduction

Laser beams targeted towards the intended part of the body to destroy the hair follicles in the area. The powerful laser is meant to completely damage the hair root within, which stops the hair growth cycle. This process eliminates unwanted hair growth on the body.  Laser hair reduction is an important part of curriculum for cosmetology courses for doctors as it is a highly popular procedure among both men and women.

5. Laser Skin Resurfacing

Thys type of treatment is used to reduce scarring, such as acne marks, pigmentation, ageing lines, and more. In this procedure, Fractional CO2 laser is used on the skin to create micro wounds on the upper layer of the skin. This triggers the body to produce natural collagen, which helps with faster healing of the wounds. The collagen gives birth to a new layer of skin, which replaces the wounded skin. This new skin that resurfaces after the laser procedure is brighter, firmer, and more youthful looking. It has visibly less scar marks and looks glowing and radiant.

6. HIFU Treatment

High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive treatment for facial skin tightening. Ultrasound energy is used to target the upper layers of the skin, which heats up the cellular tissues underneath. This triggers collagen production, resulting in tighter, firmer skin. HIFU treatments are a non-surgical and painless way to perform a facelift procedure.

7. Micro Needling

Microneedling is another common topic taught in most cosmetology courses. This is a common treatment to get rid of acne scars. The affected skin is repeatedly pricked with tiny needles over and over again. This creates micro wounds on the skin which stimulates the production of new collagen in the body. As part of the healing process, new skin is formed. This visibly reduces the appearance of acne scars, stretch marks, and fine lines.

8. PRP

PRP treatment refers to Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment. It is a cosmetic procedure where facial skin is injected with a person’s platelets to repair and regenerate damaged skin. Platelets are small cells found in our blood which contain several growth factors. These platelets, when in a concentrated form, is known as platelet-rich plasma. The concentrated plasma is said to be a storehouse of proteins, stem cells and other growing factors which help the body to heal and regenerate. Using PRP treatment for the skin improves the texture and appearance of the skin.

9. Mesotherapy

In mesotherapy, the skin is injected with a meso serum. The meso serum is a rejuvenating cocktail made of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and botanical growth extracts. It is injected into the skin around the eyes, nose, cheeks, and mouth region. Mesotherapy helps improve the texture of the skin, increases the facial glow, and gives it tighter and firmer appearance.
