About this course

Free Level 4 Permanent Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation Course in Birmingham. Classes run at Any Driver Birmingham, part-time during the day. The course runs over 18 weeks, so you can fit study around other commitments. You'll develop specialist skills in permanent hair removal techniques and skin rejuvenation treatments, building on a foundation in beauty therapy. No formal entry requirements apply, though a relevant Level 2 Beauty Therapy qualification is considered helpful.

Who this course is for

The VTCT Skills Level 4 Diploma in Permanent Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation is a vocational qualification aimed at learners who wish to pursue a career as an employed and/or self-employed beauty therapist specialising in hair removal and skin rejuvenation.

Entry requirements

There are no formal entry requirements for this qualification, although it is considered advantageous for the learners to hold a relevant Level 2 or equivalent Beauty Therapy qualification.

What you will learn

  • You'll learn the principles and science behind permanent hair removal methods, including electrolysis and light-based treatments.
  • You'll develop skills in skin analysis and consultation to plan safe, effective treatments for clients.
  • You'll practise skin rejuvenation techniques, including treatments targeting pigmentation, texture, and tone.
  • You'll understand contraindications and how to carry out safe client assessments before treatment.
  • You'll learn how to use specialist equipment correctly and maintain it to professional standards.
  • You'll study the legal, health, and safety requirements for working in a specialist beauty environment.

How you will learn

You'll learn through classroom-based sessions at Any Driver Birmingham, combining theory with practical, hands-on treatment work. Assessment includes practical observations, written assignments, and knowledge tests. You'll be assessed on your ability to carry out treatments safely and to the required professional standard. Portfolio evidence of your practical work will also form part of your assessment.

What you will need to bring

The centre will provide most materials. Any Driver Birmingham will confirm anything else you need before you start.

What you could study next
