Recently aesthetic medicine has become a significant reality both in the medical and social fields. The culture of well-being medicine, much felt in the societies of the industrialized West, presents the risk of being satisfied through inadequate and superficial information that, at times, leads to ineffective or even harmful "do-it-yourself" remedies.
In this context, a qualified university education, with excellence in the field, operating at the national and international level, is a guarantee for users. In addition, it is a quality response to which a public university must respond. The Master's program in Aesthetic Medicine and Therapeutics, co-organized by Camerino and Turin Universities, aims to provide graduates in Medicine and Surgery or Dentistry, members of their respective Registers, with theoretical and practical training relevant to the practice of aesthetic medicine. There are no institutionally recognized specialized figures in the field of aesthetic medicine, and it's aimed at those without pathologies who need to improve their appearance and eliminate imperfections.
It is important that personalized treatments like aesthetic medicine are based on adequate patient selection, and that diagnostic and treatment techniques are learned. A special focus should be placed on preventing and resolving any complications that may arise.
Master students will have the opportunity to take part in theoretical training through the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). By doing so, participants who are already engaged professionally will be able to attend the Master's program. The face-to-face training will take place in: Italy (Milan class) and Greece (Athens class). In the practical part of the training, activities will be planned for single attendants in collaboration with the University of Camerino (UNICAM), and take place at International College of Aesthetic Medicine Practical (ICAMP, Milan) and Venus Medicine (Athens), as well as other accredited facilities located in areas that can be easily reached by Masters' attendees.
