Hydradermabrasion Course

Add Hydradermabrasion To Your Treatment Menu

Hydradermabrasion is the gentler face of machine resurfacing. Because it works wet, it can be used on skin that would flush after a dry treatment, which widens the range of clients you can take. It also photographs well immediately afterwards, which matters more than it should for a treatment people hear about online.

This is the broadest of our single-treatment skin courses at nine treatment units. Alongside hydradermabrasion itself it covers the ultrasonic skin scrubber and radio frequency skin tightening, the serums and gels used through the treatment, full treatment protocols and pre and post care. With Foundation, Anatomy and Physiology and Skin Healthcare behind it, that is 32 units in total.

What You’ll Be Able To Do

• Run a full hydradermabrasion treatment from cleanse through to hydration
• Use an ultrasonic skin scrubber as part of the same appointment
• Understand where radio frequency skin tightening fits and how it is applied
• Choose serums and gels for the skin in front of you rather than following one protocol
• Work through the contra-indications that rule the treatment out
• Give pre and post care advice that holds the result for longer

What To Learn Alongside Hydradermabrasion

If you already offer microdermabrasion, hydradermabrasion is the obvious companion — one dry, one wet, and between them you can treat almost any skin that walks in. Chemical peels take the resurfacing further for clients who want more, and LED light therapy is an easy calm finish to a hydra appointment. The Ultimate Facial Course gathers these together with the standard and luxury facial routines.

Hydradermabrasion Course FAQs

How Long Does The Hydradermabrasion Course Take?

This is the longest of our single skin treatments, with nine treatment units on top of the shared modules — 32 units in all. Students who are already working tend to spread it over a few weeks. There is no deadline and nothing expires, and the serums and protocols units are the ones people come back to most.

Can I Really Learn Hydradermabrasion Online?

The course covers three pieces of equipment rather than one, and video is well suited to that — you can watch the ultrasonic scrubber section on its own the week your scrubber arrives, then come back to radio frequency later. Practise each device separately on volunteers before you try to run them as one appointment.

How Am I Assessed?

Each of the 32 units is assessed online as you reach it. Every unit is assessed, and if an assessment needs another try there is no limit on resubmissions and no extra charge. Because the course spans three devices, the assessments are spread across them rather than concentrated at the end, so you find out early if something has not landed.

Is The Hydradermabrasion Course Accredited?

No. You receive a certificate on completion rather than an accreditation. Radio frequency in particular sits in a grey area for some insurers and a few local authorities, so it is worth checking both your insurer’s position and your council’s licensing rules before you offer that part of the treatment.

Do I Need To Be Qualified In Beauty Already?

Some facial experience makes this easier, because the course asks you to choose between serums and to decide how far to take a treatment. The Skin Healthcare module gives you skin types and disorders, and the treatment module has its own dedicated contra-indications unit, which is the one to know cold before you take bookings.

What Equipment Do I Need?

A hydradermabrasion machine and its tips, plus the serums and gels it uses. If you want to offer the whole course you will also need an ultrasonic skin scrubber and a radio frequency handpiece, though many therapists start with the hydra machine alone and add the others later. Nothing is bought from us.

Does It Cover The Business Side?

Yes. The Foundation module covers promotion, retail, payments and the relevant legislation across twelve units. With three devices taught here, the practical business question is whether to sell them as one premium appointment or as separate treatments at different prices — both work, and the retail units will help you decide.

Can I Pay In Instalments?

Yes. You can spread the cost over three interest-free payments at the checkout.
