SUMMARY:Professional Certificate of Aesthetic Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Develop solid foundation knowledge in aesthetic principles and the safe practice of quick\, highly requested and low-cost-to-deliver aesthetic treatments for clinical conditions. The Professional Certificate of Aesthetic Medicine is aimed at GPs with a clinical interest in the science of aesthetic medicine and the wish to grow their practice in that area. This course assumes no prior knowledge or specific training in the aesthetics field. Participants must have completed their MBBS. \nThe latest trends in health and skin care result in an increased demand for skin repair and rejuvenation services – and skilled practitioners. Patients seek to improve the quality of their lives through physical changes and prefer to receive these services from a trusted\, qualified doctor than from a beautician or cosmetic nurse. Meeting your patients’ aesthetic concerns and helping them to regain their healthy appearance and confidence at their local GP’s clinic will build long-term loyalty and add non-Medicare based revenue to your practice. Most aesthetic treatments are safe\, quick and low-cost to deliver requiring repeated visits with minimal side-effects\, no downtime\, and immediately visible results for your patients – a win-win situation. \nThe theory and practical course covers:\n– Concepts of aesthetic medicine\, facial ageing and skin classifications\n– Facial anatomy\, facial anaesthesia and planning of cosmetic procedures\n– Chemical peels and topical skin treatments\n– Chemical composition and safe practice of Botulinum toxin\n– Dermal fillers and basic filler techniques\n– How to integrate aesthetic services into your practice \nUpon successful completion of the exam\, course participants will receive the Professional Certificate in Aesthetic Medicine and 40 RACGP Category 1 CPD points / 30 ACRRM PRPD points. \nFull price: $3\,195 | Early Bird: $2\,995 | Deferred payment: $845 monthly x 4
