Where technology becomes medicine.
A medical training program in laser and energy-based technologies, designed to bring them into clinical practice safely, progressively and with sound medical judgment.
One-on-one assisted practice with real patients
Mentored training on real patients, with parameter adjustment and medical supervision at every step.
- No prior laser experience required
- In-person and online classes
- Supervised practice with real patients
Our approach
Adopting these technologies takes far more than knowing a device. It means understanding how light, energy and tissue interact; selecting the right patient; defining precise indications; adjusting parameters safely; and preventing complications.
Applied scientific foundations
Understanding the interaction between energy, light, chromophores and tissue.
Clinical reasoning
Appropriate selection of patients, indications and technologies based on diagnosis.
Advanced laser safety
Complication prevention, eye protection, biosafety and initial management of adverse events.
Supervised hands-on training
Progressive application of clinical protocols in a real medical setting.
High-end medical platforms
Practice sessions use lasers, pulsed light, radiofrequency, ultrasound, microplasma and body-contouring technologies.
Laser and pulsed light
- Lumenis Stellar M22
- IPL (intense pulsed light) and long-pulse 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser.
- Lutronic Hollywood Spectra
- Q-Switched Nd:YAG 1064/532 nm laser, 585 nm and 650 nm wavelengths, and LIOB (laser-induced optical breakdown) technology.
- Lumenis AcuPulse
- Fractional and surgical 10,600 nm CO₂ laser, with a FemTouch handpiece for aesthetic gynecology.
- Láser DUO LLLT
- Low-power laser with 660 nm red and 808 nm infrared light (LLLT, low-level laser therapy).
- Erchonia Emerald Laser
- 532 nm low-intensity laser.
Energy and body technologies
- Alma Laser PrimeX
- Monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency, ultrasound and microplasma.
- Zimmer Z Lipo
- Body cryotherapy for localized fat reduction.
- Daeyang Medical CM Slim
- HIFEM (high-intensity focused electromagnetic) technology for deep muscle stimulation.
- Daeyang Medical HIPEX
- HIPEX (high-intensity pelvic exercise) for pelvic floor strengthening.
For physicians who want to bring lasers into their practice
Physicians interested in adopting laser and energy-based technologies in aesthetic dermatology, aesthetic medicine, plastic surgery, aesthetic gynecology or related medical fields.
No prior laser experience is required to start the program.
Training format
It combines theory, clinical discussion and supervised hands-on training, so knowledge turns into medical practice step by step.
- In-person and online theory classes.
- Structured study materials.
- Clinical case discussions.
- Supervised practice with real patients.
- Safety protocols and clinical documentation.
- Academic assessment.
Skills physicians develop
We train physicians with clinical judgment, laser safety and a real ability to integrate technology into medical practice.
Understand
- Understand how energy, light and tissue interact.
- Recognize the main chromophores: melanin, hemoglobin and water.
- Understand the fundamentals of IPL, Q-Switched laser, Nd:YAG, fractional CO₂, LLLT and energy-based technologies.
Decide with judgment
- Select patients and indications with clinical judgment.
- Tell when to treat, when to combine and when not to treat.
- Identify risk factors before treatment.
Apply safely
- Apply core protocols safely and under supervision.
- Prevent common complications such as burns, dyschromia, scarring or overtreatment.
- Properly document the medical record, informed consent and photographic follow-up.
