Lauren shares her journey into aesthetics and the founding of Core Aesthetic Training Institute. The institute offers concise, objective, and real-world education for medical practitioners looking to enhance their skills in aesthetics. They provide training in anatomy, product knowledge, consultation, and treatment delivery, with a focus on critical thinking and creativity in addressing patient concerns.
Education in aesthetics requires a balance of hands-on experience and virtual learning. While videos can be informative, there's no substitute for practical training.
