About Safelase
In June of 2000, husband and wife team, Leon and Barbara Prete, began what was to become the most comprehensive laser training program the emerging laser industry had ever seen. The step-by-step program was methodically designed to thoroughly teach the basic concepts of Laser Hair Removal and how to best perform the procedures while maximizing client safety. During this time, the Pretes assisted with Hair Removal Techniques, a book published by the Milady’s company, a world leader in training manuals.
Two decades later, the family business has grown. With the help of their two daughters, Arielle Sprague, RN and Jaimie Prete, RN, they continue to offer their highly structured training program which has been brought to hundreds of students from around the world - in their Manhattan and Connecticut program locations as well as directly on-site at doctors’ offices.
The Safelase Cosmetic Laser Training Program is designed for MDs, APRN‘s, RNs, Licensed Skin Care professionals, cosmetologists and Electrologists (depending on the their state requirements) in the use of lasers, light-based, and radio frequency equipment.
Attendees are required to complete a 36-hour program and pass a written exam. The program provides in-depth coverage of all pre-and post-treatment care of the skin along with step-by-step procedures on treating all skin types with lasers light-based and radio frequency equipment. The program is taught primarily by Barbara Prete, a New York licensed skin care professional (LE) and a certified New York Occupational Instructor. With over twenty years in the industry, both on the client services side (with the brick-and-mortar med-spa locations she shares with her husband Leon in Connecticut), and the educational side (as one of the first laser training locations in the US), the Pretes offer preset/customizable laser courses concentrating on education and business practices. Expand your knowledge and expand your what your spa, salon, or medi-spa has to offer with SafeLase. The program is also complemented by hands-on experience to full prepare attendees for work in the field.
