Program aims
- Expertise in Non-Invasive Aesthetic Health: To train high-level professionals capable of delivering aesthetic treatments that fully preserve the integrity of the skin barrier, without punctures, injections, or downtime.
- Leadership and Management of Aesthetic Facilities: To prepare students to lead, manage, and commercially develop cosmetology centers, holistic care clinics, spa centers, wellness resorts, and advanced hair and body care salons.
- Innovation and Scientific Research in Cosmetology: To develop research capacities for creating, formulating, and improving cosmetic products (creams, serums, masks) based on the molecular interaction of substances with the epidermis.
- Community Education and Awareness: To engage in public and private partnerships to offer accessible aesthetic services and to educate society on sun protection, aging prevention, and healthy skin care.
- Adaptation to Technological Advancements: To continuously monitor and integrate the latest scientific achievements and state-of-the-art equipment operating within the field of non-invasive aesthetics.
Objectives
- Superficial Exfoliating and Regenerating Treatments
- To train students in the safe application of superficial chemical peels using alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs like glycolic and lactic acid) and beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs like salicylic acid) to treat acne, blemishes, and early wrinkles.
- To master the technique of dermabrasion/microdermabrasion (using diamond tips or crystals) for the mechanical removal of dead skin cells and the improvement of skin texture.
- To apply ultrasonic peeling (skin scrubbing) for a deep, gentle, and painless cleansing of facial pores.
- Electrotherapy and Advanced Device Technology
- To qualify students in using non-invasive Radiofrequency (RF) for the thermal stimulation of collagen and the lifting/tightening of facial and body skin.
- To implement LED Phototherapy (red, blue, green light) to treat inflammation, soothe the skin, and stimulate cellular regeneration.
- To utilize hyperbaric oxygen for the needleless infusion of serums packed with hyaluronic acid and vitamins directly into the superficial layers of the skin.
- To train students in utilizing Laser and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technologies for permanent hair reduction, treating superficial hyperpigmentation, and photo rejuvenation.
- Body Contouring and Anti-Cellulite Treatments
- To enable students to operate Ultrasonic cavitation and non-invasive crylipolysis equipment for the reduction of localized adipose tissue through external physical methods.
- To apply Vacuum therapies and mechanical massages to stimulate blood circulation and eliminate cellulite.
- To practice body wrapping techniques using thermal mud, seaweed, or detoxifying ingredients to tone and firm the skin.
- Manual Therapies and Holistic Care
- To train students in the technique of Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) for the face and body to reduce swelling (edema) and eliminate toxins.
- To master advanced facial massage methods to improve the tone of facial muscles.
- To protocol spa and wellness sessions that combine aromatherapy and steam treatments (hydrotherapy) for the mental and physical well-being of the client.
- Formulation, Testing, and Cosmetic Regulation
- To thoroughly analyze skin types and conditions (dry, oily, sensitive, rosacea-prone) to accurately select active cosmetic ingredients.
- To develop and test new cosmetic formulations in the laboratory, ensuring their stability, correct pH, and safety before application.
- To acquire full knowledge of national and international regulations (such as EU regulations) governing quality control, packaging, ethical marketing, and the prevention of misleading advertising in cosmetology.
Upon successful completion of this program, graduates will be able to:
- Clinical and practical competencies (non-invasive treatments)
- Execute superficial chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and ultrasonic skin scrubbing safely according to specific skin types.
- Operate advanced aesthetic devices including Radiofrequency (RF), LED Phototherapy, Laser, and IPL equipment for skin rejuvenation and hair reduction.
- Perform non-invasive body contouring treatments using ultrasonic cavitation, cryolipolysis, vacuum therapies, and specialized body wraps.
- Apply advanced manual techniques such as Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) and myofascial facial massages to improve muscle tone and reduce edema.
- Cosmetic science and formulation
- Design innovative, safe, and stable cosmetic formulations (creams, serums, masks) by selecting appropriate active ingredients based on molecular interactions.
- Conduct laboratory testing to evaluate the quality, safety, pH levels, and dermatological efficacy of cosmetic products before application.
- Analyze different skin conditions (e.g., rosacea, acne, aging) to customize non-invasive treatment protocols and product selections for clients.
- Management and professional practice
- Manage the daily operations, logistics, safety protocols, and financial aspects of cosmetology centers, spas, and wellness clinics.
- Implement national and international regulations (such as EU cosmetic standards) regarding product safety, labeling, and ethical marketing.
- Collaborate with public and private institutions to deliver community-based aesthetic health services and evidence-based skin education.
- Research and lifelong learning
- Evaluate current scientific literature and technological advancements in non-invasive aesthetics to independently integrate them into professional practice.
- Utilize scientific research methods to address evolving societal needs and drive innovation within the field of cosmetology.
