Non-invasive body contouring is one of the fastest-growing areas in the beauty and aesthetics industry. This overview explains what the treatments are, what training involves, and how to enter the field professionally.

- Ultrasonic cavitation
- Radiofrequency skin tightening
- Laser lipo

Do You Need a Licence?
In most regions there is no specific government licence for non-invasive body contouring. However, professional training and insurance are essential. Most specialist treatment insurers require evidence of training before they will cover you, which makes certification a practical requirement.
