The Principles and practice of non-medical aesthetic therapies unit will focus on the core science behind chemical peels – the whys, the hows, and when. Students will also learn health and safety elements that cover preparing the working area, sterilising equipment, and the correct disposal of equipment. 

Advanced skincare for non-medical aesthetic therapies will cover the various acids used in chemical peels – the pH, percentages, and application process.

Finally, in the Providing Skin Peeling unit, we will teach you how to treat a range of skin concerns including:
