Aesthetic Medicine Clinical Attachment London, UK

In collaboration with cosmetic medical clinics, the HealthCert clinical attachments program provides GPs with practical support training in the art and science of aesthetic medicine. Participants will have the unique opportunity to enhance their knowledge of procedures in dedicated facilities by observing experts during all aspects of treatment, including patient consultations, various procedures, use of equipment, and patient follow-ups. Participants will increase the safety and accuracy of their work, deepen their understanding of establishing and operating a successful aesthetic practice, and gain the confidence to independently perform various procedures on their patients.

THE FACILITY

The Academy of Aesthetic Regenerative Medicine is a dedicated aesthetic regenerative clinic located in London. Founded in January 2018, the clinic provides innovative training and clinical services by translating the state of the art in aesthetic and regenerative biotechnological advances into patient-centred solutions. The academy’s development and mission incarnates the multidisciplinary journey of its founder Mr Ali Ghanem between art, science, medicine and surgery. From his early medical studies (MD Damascus University) Mr Ghanem was fascinated with congenital anomalies and their significant psychosocial impact on the sufferers lives. In pursuit of his advanced international training in reconstructive and aesthetic surgery and a decade long experience in teaching and training, Mr Ghanem and the academy’s team have combined the leading regenerative and aesthetic technology with their extensive experience and artistic vision to provide the best outcome for both students and clients.

Clinical attachments are available at the Head Office in London, and in the Academy clinics in Italy and Malta.

Dr Ali Ghanem

Clinical Senior Lecturer in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery – Barts and the London School of Medicine & Dentistry – Queen Mary University of London.

I find great fascination in reconstructive surgery for congenital anomalies of the face. Congenital deformity not only impedes the physical aspect of development and health but also affects the very meaning of human identity, psychology and quality of life. Plastic surgery brings together knowledge of human anatomy and development along with diversity of skills, precision, technological advances and art. And by addressing developmental errors of the human body, plastic surgery also restores physiological function as well as social and psychological health. Within the wide spectrum of the rapidly evolving plastic surgery practice and research, I am interested in microsurgery education, paediatric reconstructive surgery and stem cell based therapies with potential applications on cutaneous, muscle and nervous conditions. I am for ever grateful to all my teachers, colleagues and patients in all my training institutions for such a wonderful journey.

WHAT OUR ALUMNI SAY

The Clinical Attachment at the Redcliffe Skin Cancer Centre was very exciting and interesting with innovative and unexpected “twists” here and there. Most of all, I appreciated the unlimited access into your organisation and the insights on how things should be done and run. You have inspired me and I have "converted" to skin cancer management. I thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to experience your environment and I would like to thank every one of the friendly staff at the clinic for their support. Anyone interested in pursuing skin cancer management should not miss the opportunity to visit your centre.

Dr D. Sulava, Vic

The structured clinical attachment at the Redcliffe Skin Cancer Centre has provided an excellent first-hand experience and insight into many procedural aspects of skin cancer medicine management. It is a well-organised program which has afforded me good practical experience in this expanding area of medical practice. Thoroughly recommended.

Dr A. McIntosh, Vic

I had a recent two-day clinical attachment at Redcliffe Skin Cancer Centre. It is a new purpose-built practice and really showed me how to run a very high-standard skin cancer practice. All the staff are very friendly and highly efficient. The doctors are very keen to teach and I left with many new techniques and ideas. I can recommend this attachment to any doctor with an interest in skin cancer.
