The Equipment

Train on the Machines Clinics Actually Use.

Nu Generation students train on the Glacē by Candela, the same next-level facial system used in medical spas and dermatology clinics. Cleansing, exfoliation, hydrodermabrasion and cupping run as one treatment, and our students perform it start to finish on real clients before they graduate.

Most schools teach the theory and hand you a consumer device. Walking into an interview having already run a clinical platform is the difference between getting hired and getting trained.
