Electrology Program
Combining Electrolysis and Laser in one Course
Welcome to Florida Medical & Aesthetic International School, a school licensed by the Commission for Independent of Education in Florida and an educational provider from the Electrolysis Council.
We offer Electrology Program in two modalities: in Person and Online.
Online use an hybrid modalities that means 12o hors theory online and practices hours at the school facility.
Electrology Program
Electrology Program is a 320 hours course required to obtain a license in Florida for hair removal using a laser device or electrolysis machine. In this course, participants learn the method for permanent hair removal by working with an electrolysis machine or producing permanent hair reduction by performing laser hair removal.
In our Electrolysis and Laser course, a combined electrolysis program, students will learn about the science of hair removal and prepare to develop hair removal skills with electrolysis modalities and laser hair removal modalities through practice in our electrolysis facility. and medical spa. During the course, students must pass each chapter, midterm, and final exam, including a practical exam.
At the end of the course graduate must pass with satisfactory results the examination Board to obtain the license as electrologist in Florida.Our School offers our students a preparation course for the Board exam with excellent results. We have achieved over 90% success on the first try and 98% on all other attempts so far.
