Laser Hair Removal Course FAQ
Do you need to be certified for laser hair removal in NY?
In New York State, laser hair removal is currently an unregulated service, meaning there’s no state-issued license or mandatory certification specifically required to perform it. While some businesses may hire and train you on the job, having a formal laser hair removal certification will immediately set you apart from other candidates. Most reputable med spas, dermatology offices, and employers prefer to hire technicians who have already completed professional training and earned a certificate of completion to ensure a higher standard of safety, technique, and client care.
How long does it take to train for laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal training programs typically range from one to five days, depending on the course structure and amount of hands-on practice. Academy of Skin and Beauty’s comprehensive 37.5-hour course includes in-depth theory, safety protocols, contraindications, and hands-on training with real clients, giving students the skills and confidence to perform safe, effective treatments.
Is being a laser hair removal technician worth it?
Yes! Becoming a certified laser hair removal technician is a smart career move, especially for licensed estheticians, nurses, and medical professionals looking to expand their services and income potential. While some businesses may offer to train you on the job, having your certification in hand gives you a significant advantage in a competitive job market. Employers prefer candidates who have already completed professional training, as it shows commitment, skill, and readiness to perform treatments safely and effectively. With the growing demand for laser services, certified technicians can secure opportunities in med spas, dermatology practices, and cosmetic clinics, often earning competitive pay, commission, and tips — while building long-term client relationships.
