This certificate forms the foundation for correct skin analysis and selection of dermal therapy procedures within a cosmetic medical context. Lectures focus on skin physiology, the presentation and pathophysiology of dermatologic disorders, repair abilities and wound management. On completion of this certificate, students should be able to identify a range of dermatologic and cosmetic skin conditions in order to work within their scope of practice or refer to other medical professionals. The dermatoscopy section of the course requires the student to identify and examine a series of skin lesion slides to provide a holistic approach to dermal practice.
