How can I become a certified cosmetic laser technician?
I am interested in becoming a cosmetic laser technician. You know those people who do laser hair removal, and double eyelid surgery. I want the best education possible. Does anyone know how long it takes to get certified and how much the usually make? Plus locations where I can go to school for it. Anyone who is currently working in the profession please give more details. Thank You.

- I am a medical aesthetician and I do laser hair removal, photofacials, and a process called photodynamic therapy for acne. Learning how to use the laser was quite frankly, something that just happened to come along because the Plastic Surgeon that I happen to be working with decided he wanted to offer this service in his practice. My suggestion is this: Either go to school to become a Medical Aesthetician or become a Certified Medical Assistant and put your sites on working either with a Plastic Surgeon or a dermatologist who offer laser treatments within their facility. You'll need to go online and find out where there are schools that offer Medical Aesthetician courses. These schools usually have training in laser technology which when it comes to looking for a job, this could prove to be a valuable piece of info on your resume. Good luck to you.
