Course overview
This course explores laser and light-based technologies in aesthetic healthcare, focusing on their mechanisms of action, clinical applications, safety considerations, and evolving professional roles. Participants will examine the histological principles behind devices such as CO2 and erbium lasers and low-level laser therapy (LLLT) to understand how they modulate inflammation, stimulate collagen production, and promote skin rejuvenation. Through analysis of current practice trends, regulatory challenges, and training disparities, the course highlights the critical importance of clinical judgment, standardized education, and structured procedural experience as medical spas and nonphysician-operated facilities expand. The course emphasizes the integral role of nurses and aesthetic professionals in delivering evidence-based, client-centered care across a growing $16 billion industry.
