About this course

A free, non-accredited short course for salon and aesthetics practitioners. It covers how the skin is built and what it does, the diseases and disorders you must recognise before you touch a client, contra-indications and consent, skin analysis and everyday skin care treatments, then the full microneedling protocol: needle depths, technique, infection control, aftercare and troubleshooting. This course leads to a Kwalifi Certificate of Completion. It is not accredited, it carries no NQF level and no accreditation number, and on its own it does not qualify you to treat paying clients.
