Program introduction

A complete educational journey from laser foundations to advanced clinical concepts

The CBAM Online Laser Program is organized into two progressive levels. Level 1 develops the foundational knowledge required to understand laser and light technologies in aesthetic practice. Level 2 advances into complex laser technologies, treatment planning, medical dermatology applications, combination strategies, and complication management.

  • Understand the science behind lasers and other energy-based devices.
  • Learn how skin type, chromophores, wavelength, pulse duration, fluence, and spot size affect treatment decisions.
  • Explore common aesthetic applications, patient assessment, safety, aftercare, and risk prevention.
  • Progress into advanced laser medicine when professionally eligible.

Nurses

Complete the foundational level before advancing into Level 2, subject to professional scope, regional regulations, clinical authorization, and supervision requirements.

Important access structure

Medical aestheticians may access Level 1 only. Doctors and nurses complete Level 1 before entering Level 2. Course access does not independently establish legal authorization to operate a device, diagnose a condition, prescribe treatment, or perform a procedure.

Your Credential

CBAM Certificate of Completion

Each level grants its own official CBAM Certificate of Completion in Laser Aesthetics — issued to eligible practitioners upon passing all assessments.

  • A distinct certificate for Level 1 and Level 2
