AABT5022 Advanced Laser IPL & Dermal Therapies

For over 45 years, The Australian Academy of Beauty Dermal and Laser has been Australia’s premier institution for beauty therapy and laser and dermal therapy education.

The AABT5022 Advanced Laser IPL and Dermal Therapies course has been meticulously developed in consultation with industry experts to equip graduates with the essential skills and knowledge required to perform advanced beauty and facial treatments, as well as operate laser and IPL equipment proficiently.

One of our points of difference is  you’ll get hands-on experience working under the supervision of qualified dermal clinicians with real  clients in our student clinics.  Gain confidence and an industry edge by using some of the most advanced, evidenced-based technologies available.

It is important to note that employment opportunities in this field typically require candidates to hold both a Diploma of Beauty Therapy and laser qualifications, as most employers seek professionals with comprehensive training and expertise.

With growing demand for laser hair removal and dermal therapy services in contemporary salons, this qualification ensures therapists are trained to deliver treatments safely and competently, prioritizing client comfort and safety. The curriculum encompasses essential competencies in pulsed light and laser technologies, alongside techniques to enhance the overall client experience.

This specialized course is critical for those seeking to excel in laser hair removal and dermal therapy treatments—skills that are increasingly in demand across the beauty and laser therapy sectors.

Additionally, the course meets the requirements for a laser safety licence in Western Australia, Queensland, and Tasmania. Classes are held at convenient locations in Bella Vista, Rockdale, and North Strathfield, offering a flexible schedule to accommodate students’ needs.

Note : When looking for Laser training always choose a course that offers face to face training and substantial clinic hours.
