Learn more lasers & treatments for less money.

Many prospective cosmetic laser students find Us (Rocky Mountain Laser College) and National Laser Institute. Sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish the differences between the two laser schools. What’s real information versus marketing fluff? While both programs ultimately provide a good base to launch your career in laser esthetics, there are some big differences in what you learn and the cost.

Lasers & Devices Taught

The biggest difference between our Certified Laser Specialist course and National Laser Institute’s Laser Bootcamp is the amount of treatments, lasers, and devices you learn. We teach you 9 distinct lasers and radio frequency devices. Both schools teach Laser Hair Removal, IPL, RF heating, and Q-switch Tattoo Removal. However, we include CO2 Fractional laser, non-ablative fractional laser (Icon 1540 / Fraxel), RF Microneedling, Pico Tattoo Removal, and Pico Facials. National Laser Institute will teach you CO2 Fractional and RF Microneedling in a separate course for $2950 more money and two additional days in class. National Laser Institute doesn’t offer any courses on Pico lasers or non-ablative fractional lasers (Icon 1540 / Fraxel).

Laser Training Cost Compared

Our laser training costs $6500; this is $2,000 less than National Laser Institute’s cost of $8545. Our Certified Laser Specialist course has an online component and six days on-site at the Laser College in Denver, Colorado. National Laser Institute’s Laser Bootcamp course has an online component and seven days on-site at their office or a hotel.

One-On-One With World-Class Instructors

Besides more lasers for less money, we cap our class sizes so you get more one-on-one attention during your laser training. This results in a better understanding of laser physics, safety, and technique. A smaller class size also means more time to practice a variety of treatments with a variety of the latest lasers on real models. While you learn and practice, you receive unrestricted access to your amazing instructors.

All of our instructors are also full-time laser technicians who regularly perform the same treatments they teach, not medical doctors whose focus is supervision but rarely fire lasers. Our instructors are the most skilled laser technicians with 5 to 10+ years of treatment experience. They stay up-to-date on the latest laser treatment techniques so you can learn the best skills to succeed. Finally, our instructors have more laser-firing experience than most medical doctor supervisors, giving you more real-world treatment knowledge.

Nothing to Hide in Our Laser Training Cost

Since our laser training cost is so much less expensive than National Laser Institute, prospective students think we are hiding costs. We’re not. You have to cover your travel to get to the college, accommodations, and some meals (lunch is included). The reality is, we are a small, family-owned company. Our office and classrooms are classy, but nothing extravagant. We spend a little on advertising, but nothing like National Laser Institute. This adds up to a much more affordable laser training cost. Cosmetic lasers are a very powerful beauty tool. Laser training should be accessible to all who want it, not just the elite or people willing to take on massive debt.
