At SkinStylus® and Esthetic Advisor Laser Academy, we have developed curricula (including the curriculum above) for physicians and other skin care professionals. Some of our curricula discuss scientific concepts, images, videos, procedures, and opinions that were intended for physicians who have the ability to use microtherapy devices in a variety of expanded functions and procedures (in addition to micropigmentation). It is essential that all attendees of Esthetic Advisor® courses, regardless of licensure, comply with all federal, state, and local restrictions regarding the use of any microtherapy device (or any device for that matter) with respect to his/her specific licensing and to the specific indications authorized by any governing body.

Our online chemical peel course will demonstrate the application of a mid-depth peel and give instructions for the participant to mimic the demonstration application in their own home with non-chemical components.

HOW TO BEGIN:

In order to begin the course, you will be prompted to create a free Edpuzzle student account upon viewing the video contained in the “welcome” lesson. Enrolling into Edpuzzle is very simple and does not require that you submit your email address unless you choose to. The easiest way to enroll is to make sure the “student” tab is selected on the drop down menu and then click on the orange “Sign up” tab. Once enrolled, you need to complete each chapter and the quiz associated with that chapter before you can proceed onto the next chapter. Once you start the edpuzzle video lesson, the video will occasionally stop and require you to answer a non-graded pre-quiz question or read a comment from the instructor. These are not graded and are designed to help you be able to pass the quiz for that section.

Once you complete the Edpuzzle video, there may be images that have “hotspots” on them. Roll your mouse over the hotspots on the image to see explanations and more content.

In some chapters there are additional videos and content that help explain the concepts presented in that chapter. Be sure to view and study these sections as some of the quiz questions will pertain to this material.

You will be required to take a quiz after most chapters and pass each quiz with an 80% or better score to assess your knowledge of the material. With respect to passing the quizzes, if you do not pass the quiz the first time, you may, depending on the chapter, have multiple opportunities to pass the quiz. After you successfully complete the course and pass every quiz, you will be awarded a certificate of completion.

I hope you enjoy the course and learn valuable information. Enjoy!
