Project Description
COURSE INTRODUCTION
Low Level Laser Therapy (also known as Laser Lipo) utilises that part of the light spectrum where visible red laser diodes give off light penetrating into the subcutaneous layer where the fat cells are, changing the chemical balance within the fat cells which opens the pores in the cell walls to allow the content of the fat cells to “leak” out into the surrounding interstitial space from where it is transported by the lymphatic system to be naturally metabolised by the body and used as energy.
This process is non-invasive and safe. It uses an aspect of the body’s natural mechanisms to release stored fat for the body to turn into energy, which, when the client makes the minor lifestyle changes required (diet and exercise) to complete the fat elimination process, provide the “inch loss” from the treatment area.
The LLLT course includes:
Safe and effective methods of working when carrying out treatments:
- Health and safety
- Data Protection Act
- Client modesty, privacy and confidentiality
- Hygiene
- Sterilisation methods
- Equipment set up and Maintenance
Anatomy and Physiology, and other science relevant to the treatment:
- What is Low Level Laser Therapy
- How Laser Lipo stimulates the release of lipids stored in adipocytes
- The role of exercise and a healthy lifestyle
Planning, preparing and consulting client before treatment and understanding the organisational and legal obligations of performing treatments:
- Client consultation
- Contra indications
- Client suitability
- Risk and side effects
- Realistic expectations
- Areas suitable for treatment
Carrying out treatments:
- Live Demo
- Step-by-step
- Treatment techniques
Handling equipment and electrical safety:
- Importance of wearing goggles throughout treatment
- Importance of checking laser pads throughout the treatment
Providing aftercare to the client:
- Returning clients and treatment maintenance
- Combination treatments
NB: We expect students to have read the course materials fully prior to attending the onsite course at the Academy of Advanced Beauty
In order to graduate from all of our courses, students will need to pass a final written examination to assess their knowledge and understanding, and to pass a practical observation performing the treatment in full, including client consultation and aftercare. For Level 4 courses, after having completed the practical session at the Academy, students will be asked to complete four case studies and a 5,000-word assignment in order to complete the course
Level 4 Accredited Course certificates will be issued externally. For our Short Courses, we will provide an Academy of Advanced Beauty Diploma
The Low Level Laser Therapy Level 4 accredited course carries 7 credits and will qualify you for insurance cover. Some of these credits can be transferred to other courses if the subject matter overlaps. For example, if you have studied the necessary Health and Safety legislation in the Aesthetics sector, you will not need to cover this in the same amount of detail for any additional course which covers this same material
Our Level 4 is suitable for Beauty Therapists with the suitable pre-requisites (Level 3 Beauty or equivalent) and Aesthetic practitioners, and includes a substantial theory component and a two-day practical training session where you will be asked to demonstrate your competence in the treatment through a series of assessments and exams
We also offer short courses for those wish to learn more about the treatments without gaining an accredited Level 4 course. Please contact us for more information

Our short courses, for those wish to learn more about the treatments without gaining an accredited Level 4 course, are one day in duration
Our Level 4 course is based on core knowledge taught on the short course but in addition includes a substantial theory component which explores the science behind the treatment further, and comprises of a two-day practical training session (rather than one day for the short course) where you will be asked to demonstrate your competence in the treatment through a series of assessments and exams
In the course, we will cover how to prepare for and carry out the treatments safely, covering necessary legislation, core knowledge and science behind the treatment as well as how best to handle the equipment and maximise treatment results.
In order to graduate from all of our courses, delegates will need to pass a final written examination to assess their knowledge and understanding, and to pass a practical observation performing the treatment in full, including client consultation and aftercare.
