Theoretical Subjects - Anatomy & Physiology
On our cosmetology programme, Anatomy and Physiology plays a central role as one of the most important theoretical disciplines. The subject gives you a solid understanding of the body’s structure and function - essential knowledge for working safely and professionally with skin, muscles and tissue.
What will you learn?
In the subject Anatomy and Physiology we delve into the body’s systems, including:
- The skin’s structure and function
- Muscles and the skeleton
- Blood circulation and lymphatic system
- Digestive system, nervous system and hormones
- Cell division and tissue types
This knowledge is essential when you need to assess skin condition, understand the body’s reactions to treatments and provide qualified guidance to your clients.
Why is it important?
As a cosmetologist you work closely with people’s skin and well-being. To perform treatments with safety and professional authority, it is crucial that you have a deep understanding of the body’s biology. This does not just make you a better therapist - it also builds trust with your clients.
Teaching format
The teaching combines theory with practice and is delivered through both classroom instruction, visual presentations and real-world cases. You receive ongoing tests and assignments that prepare you for the exam and ensure you can apply your knowledge actively in practice.
