SkinLight Academy · Laser and light

Laser hair removal training

Build a structured approach to laser hair removal, from the first consultation to the review of a treatment plan. This programme uses the Helio range and Stardust MED as examples of diode laser equipment. The learning scope is tailored to your existing experience, the model you use and the questions your clinic needs to resolve.

Learning objectives

What will you explore?

  • Explain the relevance of hair growth, pigment and skin characteristics to assessment.
  • Compare diode laser configurations, treatment spot sizes and cooling arrangements.
  • Gather the history and observations needed to evaluate suitability for the selected device.
  • Communicate realistic expectations and keep consistent treatment and review records.

Programme overview

Connect knowledge and practice.

01

Hair, skin and light

Review hair structure, growth cycles, pigmentation and the principles behind laser hair reduction. Explore why an assessment considers both the hair and the surrounding skin, and why a general device description cannot determine an individual's response or treatment plan.

02

Understanding your diode laser

Compare the Helio family and Stardust MED by their actual configuration, wavelength combination, handpieces and cooling. Distinguish a diode system's wavelengths from the type of laser source. Identify the model-specific documentation required before discussing equipment operation.

03

The first consultation

Structure a conversation about previous hair removal, skin response, relevant history, recent changes and the client's priorities. Discuss suitability checks, reasons to postpone or refer, informed consent and how to document preparation advice without promising identical results for every client.

04

Planning the treatment workflow

Review treatment area records, equipment checks, protective arrangements and the role of device-specific assessment procedures. Examine the relationship between spot size, pulse characteristics and coverage at a conceptual level. Any practical teaching is agreed after the participant's prerequisites are reviewed.

05

Progress and client communication

Explore how to record changes in hair growth and the client's experience across visits. Practise explaining variability, aftercare and the reasons for reassessment. A consistent review process helps the team recognise questions that require further guidance rather than automatically repeating a plan.
