Diathermy is one of the most versatile and in-demand blemish removal modalities in modern clinical practice — and one of the most undertaught.
The Advanced Blemish Removal Diathermy Masterclass is a comprehensive professional development program for beauty therapists, dermal clinicians and aesthetic practitioners who want to add medical-grade skin blemish removal to their service menu — and do it with genuine clinical confidence.
This is not a one-day crash course with a certificate at the end. It is a structured, clinically grounded program that builds your knowledge from the science of skin and electrical current right through to advanced treatment technique, client consultation, documentation and post-treatment protocols — followed by 6 hours of face-to-face or Zoom practical training with Kelly Dermody once your theory is complete.
How This Course Is Delivered Complete your theory online at your own pace — then book your 6-hour practical training session with Kelly Dermody, delivered either face-to-face at a Dermaskin Academy location or via Zoom. Your practical is scheduled once your theory modules are complete. You will not be signed off until Kelly is confident in your technique.
