SKIN IRREGULARITIES REMOVAL COURSE
You can rapidly and effectively treat a broad range of minor vascular, sebaceous, and fibroma related skin irregularities that are quite common. Vascular irregularities can appear in different forms and tend to be more noticeable in fair skinned or thin-skinned individuals. They are superficial in nature and present on the upper epidermal level of the skin. Vascular irregularities appear most often on the face. Some of these irregularities such as cherry angiomas, and dilated capillaries may appear on the face, chest and torso. Sebaceous irregularities on the face, as well as the scalp, include commonly occurring cholesterol deposits, clogged pores, milia, skin tags, keratosis and pimples. Sebaceous hyperplasia, a distinctive donut-shaped sebaceous glad, also fall in this category, as do cysts. In this course you will learn how to effectively and safely remove these common skin irregularities and growths from the face and body.
FIBROBLAST SKIN TIGHTENING
Plasma Skin Tightening is the next big thing in beauty. Did you know skincare and anti-aging is the biggest market in the beauty industry? If you are looking for a great opportunity to boost your earnings for the long-term, then Plasma Skin Tightening is for you!
When the skin is exposed to plasma energy, it goes through the process of sublimation (the action of turning matter from solid to gas, bypassing the liquid stage).
In other words, we are ‘evaporating’ the excess tissue without the application of excess heat and in a very superficial manner. This sublimation effect causes an instant contraction of the tissue, eliminating wrinkles and sagging skin. This them stimulates skin regeneration and collagen production.
We are proud to bring you education and products of the highest quality in Plasma Skin Tightening. If you would like to get qualified in performing this great treatment, look no further then here at Gulf Coast Academy.
HYALURON PEN COURSE
Hyaluron pens are arguably the biggest and newest trend….The Hyaluron pen uses pressure technology to deposit hyaluronic acid filler into the epidermal and upper dermal layers of the skin without using traditional needles. The Hyaluron pen can be used to create volume, shape, and lift!

INTENSE PULSED LIGHT (IPL)
A clear complexion is something many people want, but even with the most meticulous skincare regimen, blemish-free skin can be difficult to achieve. Photorejuvenation, which uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, can help reduce the appearance of some of the most common skin woes, including brown spots, melasma, broken capillaries, and sun damage. This minimally invasive skin procedure can also treat signs of aging such as wrinkles or age spots. There are very little recovery time and few side effects, making it a popular skin treatment.
LASER SKIN TIGHTENING COURSE
This revolutionary skin tightening regimen for the face and body uses advanced technology to non-invasively treat wrinkles and fine lines, while also replacing volume. Multiple clinical studies and thousands of satisfied patients have proven the Alma Laser treatment’s effectiveness in tightening loose skin, promoting healthy collagen production, and improving body contours. Compared to other skin treatment systems, you’ll see noticeable results faster. Laser Skin tightening has become one of the most recognized treatments available today. This technology heats the layers of skin gradually so you stay comfortable. The procedure is not only quick and easy it’s effective. This treatment tightens skin and contours the body through a special dual-layer thermotherapy process. Done in a series of 4-6 treatments once every 2-6 weeks, with a follow-up maintenance routine for each client’s specific needs. It’s recommended to condition the skin before the treatment process to enhance results. Laser skin tightening is ideal for patients who seek long-term correction of fine lines and wrinkles, but who do not have the time or inclination for extensive surgical procedures.
