Electrical Facials Training Course
An understanding of basic facial skincare and prior completion of a suitable course is a pre-requirement. We would suggest our Facial Massage & Skincare course be completed before attending this course.
Our Electrical Facial Course is delivered over 2 consecutive days.
It is designed to teach you the advanced skills to offer the electrical facial treatment competently to your clients. This effective treatment, working to improve the condition of the skin, defying signs of ageing and minimizing the appearance of skin concerns, is highly in-demand for clients of all ages. You will learn a range of electrical facial procedures, theoretical knowledge behind the treatment and how to adhere the treatment to particular skin-types over two days of hands-on, practical training.
If you are completing this course with plans to progress to more advanced skincare/aesthetics training, we would highly recommend establishing the pre-requirements of any such training with the further provider before commiting to this course to ensure it will meet your requirements and future plans. This course is a great course to introduce you to these lucrative electrical facial treatments to work freelance as an Advanced Skincare Specialist, though you may wish to look at the VTCT qualification options if wanting to later progress to more advanced aesthetics training routes.

Course structure

Please note you will be required to give and receive treatments as part of the course and therefore will need to remove your make-up during the course. Students must not have undergone cosmetic procedures such as skin fillers within the 12 weeks prior to the course.

Cristina Tanasescu – :
It’s probably my 7th or 8th training course I have studied with The Beauty Academy, in Reading and in Cambridge. I always had a very good experience, hence I always came back for all of my courses. The courses are well structured, well explained and short time (0.5 day, 1 day, 2 days) of studying it. In this fast pace world, the time is something that we are always running out of. So to me it’s very important that in one or two days I can study something that will last me a lifetime. My insurer is Balens and all The Beauty Academy’s courses are accepted by Balens.
All the tutors are friendly and very knowledgeable.
This course, Electrical Facials, has taken two days and I had Fleur as my tutor. She has a master in beauty, Level 7 and she’s an excellent expert.
We’ve studied oral theory and then practice. We all had the chance to practice on each others.
She has spent her own time to create some bullet points’s notes for all of us, which I found it very thoughtful. Thank you, Fleur. You are amazing and also very beautiful :).
