            FAQ About International beauty institute's Advanced Medi-Spa Therapist Diploma

            Laser Technicians perform advanced skin treatments using light and laser-based technologies. They provide services such as hair removal, photorejuvenation, acne treatments, and skin resurfacing while ensuring safety and compliance with health regulations.

            The program runs for 8 weeks (240 hours total) and is available in both full-time and part-time formats.

            The program is delivered in a hybrid format. Theory courses are completed online, while hands-on training is conducted in person at one of our campuses (Mississauga, Toronto/North York, or Hamilton).

            Graduates can work in:

            • Dermatology clinics

            • Plastic surgery and physicians’ offices

            • High-end medical spas

            • Independent laser clinics

            • As entrepreneurs operating their own businesses

            Students receive hands-on training with medical-grade devices and learn essential skills in client consultations, safety protocols, and regulatory compliance. This ensures graduates are fully prepared for employment in clinical and medi-spa environments.

            Graduates receive a Laser Technician Diploma from the International Beauty Institute, recognized across the aesthetics and medi-spa industry.

            Applicants must have a Grade 12 diploma or mature student status and complete a personal admissions interview.

            Students must also achieve a minimum overall average of 70%, with no grade lower than 60% in theoretical or practical exams, to successfully graduate from the program.

            Both terms refer to professionals who perform skincare and beauty treatments. The difference is mainly in spelling and usage. “Aesthetician” (with an a) is often used in medical or advanced skincare settings, while “esthetician” is more common in traditional spas and salons. At IBI, we use “aesthetician” to reflect our focus on advanced, clinical-level training.

            A degree is typically a longer, academic program offered by universities, focusing on theoretical knowledge and research. A diploma, like the programs at International Beauty Institute, focuses on hands-on, career-specific training designed to help you start working in your chosen field more quickly.
