micro-dermabrasion TRAINING

This one-to-one Microdermabrasion course is designed for qualified facial therapists who wish to safely and confidently introduce mechanical exfoliation treatments into their practice.

Microdermabrasion requires correct technique, controlled pressure, and a strong understanding of skin suitability. Delivered on a private basis, this course allows close supervision throughout the practical session, ensuring treatments are performed safely and effectively.

The training focuses not only on operating the equipment, but on understanding skin response, treatment planning, and integrating microdermabrasion into professional facial protocols.

Who This Course Is For

This course is suitable for therapists who:

  • are already qualified in facial treatments

  • have a basic understanding of skin and skincare

  • want to add professional exfoliation treatments to their menu

  • prefer detailed, one-to-one training rather than group delivery

This is an advanced course and is not suitable for complete beginners.

Pricing: £399

(A £100 booking fee is required to secure your training date. The remaining balance can be paid on the day of your course or added at checkout if you prefer to pay in full.)
