Eligibility + faculty + practice
The people and requirements matter.
Prerequisites
The laser-classes hub currently requires a high school diploma or equivalent and a valid government-issued ID. No prior laser experience is required. The 95-hour page also welcomes medical professionals, aesthetic practitioners, and career beginners; a basic dermatology background is described as helpful, not required.
Instructor
The live 95-hour page does not name a lead instructor. Ask admissions who is teaching your dates.
Practical experience
Hands-on work is described around hair reduction, IPL, and non-ablative resurfacing. Confirm live models, student-to-faculty ratio, and what each student performs.
What does the 95-hour total include?+
The live class page currently names 21 applications, including IPL and laser hair reduction, IPL rejuvenation, laser peels, non-ablative resurfacing, vascular and pigmented lesions, wrinkle and scar work, and RF microneedling, tightening, and body contouring. Older product copy also listed 40 didactic hours, 24 hair-reduction hours, and 24 other-procedure hours. Ask admissions how those hours are allocated on your dates.
What credential will I receive?+
SAA is accredited by the Arizona Radiation Regulatory Board and the National Council on Laser Certification (NCLC). Confirm the exact student certificate for this class. That document is not the same as professional licensure.
