Complete Facial Aesthetics - Chicago, IL

Our course is very complete and detailed, with written protocols for every step in each procedure, including the opportunity to perform these hands-on procedures. The procedures taught in this course include medical-grade chemical peels, microdermabrasion, microneedling, and more.

The Comprehensive Botox Workshop, Dermal Filler Workshop, and Facial Aesthetic Training programs are scheduled on consecutive days to allow you to maximize your education in relation to aesthetics. Click on these programs to learn more.

Medical-grade chemical peels are still considered the gold standard among dermatologists due to their effective and controlled results. Chemical peels are an effective treatment for skin conditions such as solar lentigos, age spots, and other pigmentation of the face, décolleté, and hands. Our Facial Aesthetic Training will teach you the various protocols associated with the different types of acids as well as instruction in performing microdermabrasion (micropeel), including microneedling training. Physicians will also learn about the importance of integrating retail products into their aesthetic practice as a means of benefiting your patients while providing an additional monthly revenue stream.
