"I am really glad I took the laser class offered at The Elaine Sterling Institute. Elaine's school is very nice & professional. Tony Stanfill is an excellent instructor and she is very thorough in teaching laser safety and education. I thought there was plenty of hands on experience with the differant lasers. After taking the class, I got offered a position at a dermatology practice." "Thank You Elaine for all your help" Marisa Costigan, Medical Esthetician
"To anyone interested in Elaine's laser class, tutored by Toni, I have only good things to say. It sounds daunting at first if you have never wielded a laser or tried to read the literature on lasers. The 2 day laser class is an excellent start. You will understand the differance in fluence and spot size...All that jargon. Elaine has the state of the art lasers and the latest models, so no antiquated equipment. The classrooms are spacious and clean. Good luck to all interested in the course. Perhaps I should mention that these two ladies are not only wonderful teachers, but gregarious characters as well" Susan-Christine pollonais, esthetician-Spa Owner (Barbados)

She was always there for me with advice, knowledge and encouragement. Her excitement for the industry pushed me to go beyond an average goal.
