Course summary


Become qualified to offer facials for cancer patients in your salon, spa, clinic or rooms. This qualification is delivered online and can be completed at your convenience, to suit your schedule.

Jennifer Young’s postgraduate diploma in the oncology The Essentials Facial is a certified qualification designed to give spa therapists, beauty practitioners and healthcare workers the understanding, knowledge and confidence to provide specially designed facial treatments to clients going through the different stages of cancer, without requiring medical consent.

Facials can offer holistic healing as well as practical skincare benefits at any time. However, for those going through cancer treatment, or living with or beyond cancer, facials can provide a profound sense of wellbeing and can also be used to help address the sometimes painful or distressing side effects of treatment, many of which can have a long-term impact.

This course at the Jennifer Young Training School is combination of online learning and the supported completion of case studies. Through it, you will learn about the biology of cancer, the science of its treatments, the biological drivers of resulting side-effects, and the protocols and products that you can use to deliver safe and dedicated facials, empowering you to treat clients appropriately and with confidence.
