Aesthetics is as much an art as it is medicine and regular training plays an important role in ensuring that the practitioners retain their precision and deliver the best results.Precision is particularly important when it comes to the art of using dermal fillers for facial contouring to enhance and re-shape features. The demand for dermal fillers and other aesthetic treatments is increasingly rapidly in India as more and more people convert to the idea of procedures like lip augmentation, highlighted cheeks and facial re-contouring. The Galderma Aesthetic Academy fulfils the need for a world class training and skill upgradation center for doctors in an increasingly competitive field.
