General Aspects of Aesthetic Medicine
Before you perform any procedure, you need to understand the skin you are treating. This foundational course covers the science of melanocyte biology, the mechanics of aging in African skin, and the clinical and ethical framework that underpins every treatment decision you will ever make. You will leave consultation-ready — with emergency protocols, Fitzpatrick-specific assessment tools, and a treatment philosophy built from the ground up for skin of colour.
