Studies have shown that hormones can have an affect on skin disease, and can exasperate already existing conditions.  This material covers hormones and contributing factors such as inflammation and the affects of inflammatory responses on skin disease.  Predisposed factors such as ethnicity is covered, as well as skin conditions such as acne, aging, keratosis pilaris, and hyperpigmented disorder such as melasma.  Preventative therapies are discussed as well as treatment applications.  This material provides the practitioner with a thorough understanding on the effects of hormones with the onset of skin diseases and disorders.     

Includes Certificate of Completion along with documented CEU.

This material covers the important factor of ethnicity when managing skin conditions. Ethnicity does play a role in the onset of various skin diseases, and is sometimes overlooked with cosmetic procedures.  The material covers skin diseases commonly found with Fitzpatrick Skin Phototypes I-VI, and discusses conditions such as rosacea and hyperpigmentation.  The course details clinical applications and predisposed risk factors, and offers the practitioner a thorough understanding of clinical applications when treating ethnicity.  This course material is crucial for all levels of practice.

The endocannabinoid system was designed from conception to create homeostasis within the body.   This material discusses the relation between the immune system, the brain-gut axis, the lung-gut axis, and the response of cannabinoid receptors  in the brain, spinal cord, and in the skin.  This amazing system is designed to reduce inflammatory responses and strengthen immunity, preventing disease states and improving overall health.  The material details phytocannabinoids such as those found in plants, essential oils,  and essential nutrients.  Individual cannabinoids are covered with specific detail to the hemp plant, essential oils and supplement and their benefits on overall health and skin health.

Studies have shown that immunity is directly linked to disease and skin disease. The material is a thorough study of the immune system, and discusses the origin of the innate immune system. The course furthers into the function of the adaptive immune system and covers both humoral and cell mediated immunity. The lymphatic system is discussed, and how the lymphatic system works with white blood cells within the immune system. This material gives a vital understanding on the effects of immunity and manifestations of skin disease.
