Electrolysis Training in Massachusetts — Licensed Certification Courses
Massachusetts is one of the few U.S. states that requires a professional license to perform electrolysis. As a result, electrologists must complete an approved training program and pass the Massachusetts Board of Registration of Electrologists licensing exam. Our programs prepare students for licensure with a comprehensive curriculum and hands-on clinical practice in cities like Boston, Worcester, and Springfield.
