Dermatology is one of the most versatile amongst the medical specialties.
These days advanced treatments have allowed dermatologists to get rid of nasty skin infection and perform procedures that make patients look years younger!

These days, dermatology training courses area available to non-doctors that will allow them to perform certain cosmetic procedures.
Here we will take a brief look at what constitutes a good dermatology training program, and will concentrate mainly on facial treatment and anti-ageing methods.

Some say this cannot be taught, but watching experts performing procedures and how they reassure patients before, during and after the procedure is key to developing this particular skill.
Patients expect any procedure that they undergo to be performed by experts, and are always worried about side effects and risks.
Putting their mind at ease using a soft and reassuring tone to the voice and being gentle when performing procedures helps them tremendously.
To be a successful cosmetic treatment provider, it is essential to know the equipment being used and the products being administered.
Not only does this help one as the treatment provider, it also instils confidence in the patient that their procedure is being performed by someone who ‘knows what they are doing’.
A detailed study on all drugs and equipment used is essential in a dermatology training program.
No procedure is without risk. A good dermatology training program will certainly discuss the common complications and risk encountered in different procedures.
