There are a multitude of external factors that influence the appearance of the skin. Stress, environmental pollution and health conditions are just some of the factors that can lead to dry, unhealthy-looking skin. However, an internal factor that has a direct impact on the appearance of the skin is undoubtedly nutrition. Diets based on ultra-processed foods, excess salt or sugar and even uncontrolled eating can cause visible lesions or premature aging of the skin.

It is therefore crucial that nutrition professionals have a thorough understanding of how diet influences the condition of the skin and, above all, how, through diet, skin damage, lesions or pathologies can be reversed. This Master's Degree provides students with an understanding of the impact of nutrition on the skin, as well as the most appropriate medical-aesthetic treatments and approaches for each case.

Master's Degree in Aesthetic Medicine for Nutritionists

Good nutrition, which is adjusted to the requirements of each organism, ensures the proper functioning of the body, which in turn makes possible, in many cases, the overall improvement of health. One of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle is the rejuvenation of the skin, which, despite being widely cited, has not been properly addressed in the scientific field. For this reason, TECH Global University has designed this program specialized in the effects that food has on the state of the epidermis. This Master's Degree has a curriculum that covers each of the branches of dermo-aesthetic nutrition and orients them to the treatment of patients with or without pathologies. Through our methodology, which favors case studies and problem-based learning, students will be able to face the processes of diagnosis and medical-cosmetic prescription. From the mastery of knowledge regarding the anatomical/chemical structure of the skin and its respective transformation generated by nutritional habits, the professional interested in this area will be able to recover the injured tissue, reverse skin damage and prevent aging.

Master’s Degree in Aesthetic Medicine for Nutritionists

The exercise of clinical work in different aesthetic centers demands, on the one hand, a series of skills in the identification and treatment of dermatological pathologies and, on the other hand, a set of ethical-civil responsibilities. With this TECH postgraduate course, it will be possible to develop these two types of competencies, since it delves into the realization of comprehensive diagnoses and, simultaneously, it provides information on the organization of the practices and the ethical codes that regulate them. Regarding this last point, indispensable tools are also provided for the proper management of cases of psychological disorders of body image, such as, for example, referral to other professionals. At the end of the program, the future expert in this field will be able to perform their daily work in an outstanding manner, as they will be able to define the main action protocols for the wide range of existing alterations: from those related to dyschromia and texture, to oncological ones. Likewise, he will take into account in his assessments, the risk factors already present or that may be triggered by the suggested interventions. This will facilitate the application of personalized treatments, designed to specially address the particularities of each patient.
