VTCT (ITEC) Level 4 OFQUAL Qualification Award in Skin Needling

 

In recent years, the demand for skin needling treatments has surged within the aesthetics industry. The VTCT (ITEC) Level 4 Award in Skin Needling is an advanced qualification tailored for both Level 3 beauty professionals and medical practitioners. This course is ideal for those looking to expand their treatment offerings with more advanced procedures.

In the rapidly evolving aesthetics field, holding regulated qualifications not only sets your clinic apart but also ensures you gain the expertise needed to deliver high-quality treatments and achieve the best outcomes for your clients.

We believe this course is the perfect choice for practitioners aiming to confidently and competently perform skin needling treatments in their practice.

“I just wanted to express my thanks for running the webinar today about getting back to work following lockdown.

I am due to go back to work tomorrow and have struggled to find reliable information on top of the BMLA guidance.

The Laser I use is not one of Lynton’s, it is actually still under warranty, and we have had no support or guidance from the company during this time. So, I’d just like to say the information and time that was given today for ALL laser practitioners has been invaluable and extremely generous!

I will definitely be looking to enroll on some of the training that I have seen is available, following this webinar.

Thank you once again!”

Service of lumina and focus dual done by Richard … I had a service done today by engineer Richard, and I couldn’t be more pleased. He was fantastic—keeping me informed about his arrival time, showing up promptly, and completing the service efficiently and professionally. Despite the challenging space, he was respectful of my property, working carefully and with great attention to detail. What truly set him apart was his willingness to go the extra mile by providing clear instructions on how to maintain and clean the equipment. Excellent service all around.

Since working with the Lynton LUMINETTE Q system, we haven't looked back! We're getting much better results compared to our previous laser and much more business because of Lynton's reputation and the results their systems provide. The laser is easy to use, and the training was extremely thorough. We find any enquiries are dealt with by Lynton very efficiently. We would recommend Lynton to anyone. We certainly wouldn't ever be using another machine.

“Thank you for all the support you’ve shown us through what has been a very turbulent year, through educational workshops, webinars, as well as the guidance for health and safety procedures, ensuring clinics are COVID secure. You’ve been a huge support.”

The illumiFacial - amazing results, plumps up the skin, reduces fine lines and gives it a nice glow after 24 hours. Using the Lynton IPL and the superb products, it’s the ultimate treat!

Walkwel Beauty

Thank you for my training on the new EPN Microneedling system. I've been looking for over a year for a device as I've tried lots of different Microneedling devices before. This one did not disappoint. It's very easy to use and the fact it’s a deeper more effective treatment is what sold it for me. I’m loving the results after the first treatment, I know it will be very popular in my clinic. The training was very detailed and explained everything about the device and the treatment. Any questions I had, I got a response in less than 24hours. Everyone has been amazing. I've been with Lynton for over 7 years now and they definitely don’t disappoint. Their customer service and training are very high standard, along with all the equipment they provide.

Suzanne Hance , Beauty Therapist, Enhanced Aesthetics

"I’ve been loving all the webinars! You’re all doing a brilliant job keeping us customers up to date/trained/informed!"

"Here at Sandon Court Clinic, Plymouth, we have been using the Lynton 3JUVE system and we have achieved some outstanding results for our clients. Lynton obtains a high standard of customer service and always provides tailored informative training, so we can provide the best-tailored treatments for our clients."

Sandon Court Clinic Plymouth

"In the short time that we have been using the 3JUVE the clinical results we have achieved have been outstanding, especially with the 585 IPL for broken veins and rosacea. The Er: YAG resurface handpiece has also been proving beneficial as it’s not too aggressive for our clients and they can remain comfortable whilst treatments are being carried out. Furthermore, for such impressive results we are blown away by how quick the actual treatments are which is maximising our profit-making potential through the 3JUVE treatments. Overall, we are delighted with our results so far and even more delighted with how happy our patients have been with their results." Dr Askari Townshend, Medical Director of ASKINOLOGY ASKINOLOGY Case Study

Expansion of Premises to Facilitate Entry into Export Markets

To facilitate its entry into new export markets, Lynton Lasers Ltd required increased manufacturing space, as well as new demonstration and training facilities. To this end, LEADER Funding was applied for, and won, to support the refurbishment of an adjacent business unit (Unit 9d) as well as the re-arrangement and refurbishment of the existing business unit (Unit 6) on Holmes Chapel Business Park.

This Project was part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development
