About this event
Learn dermatology essentials including skin anatomy, eczema, acne, infections, and more—all online, explained in a way that actually makes sense.
Overview
If your skin had a diary, dermatology would be its narrator. This course lays the groundwork for understanding how your skin works, what it needs to stay healthy, and how to recognise when something’s off. From exploring basic dermatological concepts to getting familiar with skin anatomy and essential nutrients, you’ll gain clarity without needing a medical degree.
You’ll also learn about diagnosing common skin conditions, including infections, atopic eczema, and acne—those charming little surprises we all know too well. We’ll wrap up with how different skin types deserve different kinds of care. This isn’t about fads or fancy jargon—it’s about learning the essentials and being better informed, whether you’re brushing up your beauty know-how or aiming for a healthcare-related role.
