Our Facials/Skin Care Specialist program is a one semester program of study that prepares skin-care students for licensure and a career in the esthetics profession.

In an age of specialization, the esthetician plays a crucial role in the cast of our Salons and Day Spas. As a Certified Facials/Skin Care Specialist, your skills as a make-up artist and skin-care technician will serve you well in a world where "pampering" is no longer a luxury enjoyed by the privileged few. Studies will emphasize the structure and function of the skin and will prepare students to crucially assess and meet the unique needs of each client. The program delivers a strong foundation in the applied and general sciences. Business and career development classes, along with training in Florida laws and regulations, are also offered. The program offers instruction in basic facials, color theory, makeup artistry, body treatments, lash application, brow tinting, and hair removal. Each of our comprehensive programs also covers sanitation procedures, bacteriology, chemistry, electricity such as 81 machines, and the use of microdermabrasion.

Admission is by application only. Please contact the program coordinator in Building 12 at [phone].
