Aesthetic Doctor

SUMMARY

The Aesthetic Doctor provides expert consultation and executes advanced non-surgical cosmetic procedures. This role balances absolute medical clinical safety with an artistic eye for facial harmony—performing neurotoxin injections, dermal filler augmentations, chemical peels, and advanced energy-based device therapies. The ideal candidate is responsible for delivering top-tier clinical outcomes, preventing complications, managing patient transformations transparently, and driving the commercial growth and reputation of the aesthetic clinic.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Comprehensive Assessments

Evaluate patients\' facial anatomy, skin types (heavily focusing on hyperpigmentation risks on darker skin phenotypes/Fitzpatrick scales V-VI), and medical histories to identify aesthetic deficiencies or contraindications.

Psychological Vetting

Screen clients subtly for signs of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), managing treatment choices ethically rather than over-treating vulnerable clients.

Formulate comprehensive, multi-session aesthetic treatment plans, detailing expected downtime, maintenance intervals, and financial estimates

Treatment Mapping

Safely administer advanced neuromodulators (e.g., Botox, Dysport) and dermal fillers (hyaluronic acid and biostimulators) for wrinkle reduction, lip plumping, jawline contouring, and facial volume restoration.

Injectable Therapies

Operate advanced medical laser systems (e.g., Nd: YAG, Pico lasers), Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), and radiofrequency platforms for skin resurfacing, tightening, and tattoo removal.

Energy-Based Devices

Execute medical-grade chemical peels, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) microneedling therapies, and target-driven mesotherapy injections for skin glow, acne scar revision, and hair restoration.

Skin Rejuvenation & Mesotherapy

Act as the ultimate clinical authority on-site, immediately identifying and treating adverse reactions such as vascular occlusions, severe allergic responses, or laser burns.

Complication Management

Ensure standardized, high-resolution, and legally compliant \"before and after\" photo documentation is captured for every patient case.

Consent Verification

Maintain accurate, encrypted electronic health records tracking batch numbers, injection sites, unit counts, and post-op protocols.

KPIs

Patient Retention & Rebooking Rate: The percentage of clients who routinely return to the clinic for maintenance treatments or sequential package layers.

Clinical Safety & Zero Complication Index: Maintaining a near-zero rate of severe adverse events (e.g., untreated vascular occlusions, skin necrosis, or secondary infections).

Consultation-to-Treatment Conversion Rate: Successfully communicating aesthetic opportunities so that initial evaluations advance into paid procedures.

Patient Satisfaction Score (NPS): Achieving stellar reviews regarding clinical empathy, pain minimization techniques, and balanced visual transformations.

Qualification Requirements

Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) or equivalent degree from a university accredited by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) medical practitioner qualification

Mandatory full registration and a current, valid annual practicing license issued by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN)

A Master\'s degree (MSc), Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip), or formal Fellowship in Aesthetic Medicine, Dermatology, or Cosmetic Medicine from an accredited international or domestic institution is an added advantage

Professional experience

2 to 5+ years of progressive hands-on experience working exclusively as an aesthetic doctor within a reputable medical spa, dermatology center, or cosmetic clinic.

Proven track record handling advanced dermal filler layering, advanced laser wavelengths, and managing clinical complications independently.

Soft skills

Aesthetic Sensibility & Golden Ratio Vision: An advanced artistic eye for symmetry, facial angles and proportions to create natural enhancements, avoiding the \"over-filled\" look.

High Emotional Intelligence & Discretion: Exceptional empathy when discussing patients\' deep physical insecurities, while maintaining strict social and professional confidentiality.

Polished, Upscale Communication: Translating complex dermatological or cellular biomechanics into simple, elegant explanations that mirror five-star hospitality.

Technical Skills

Injectable Technique Mastery: Flawless execution of linear threading, fanning, bolus, and micro-droplet injection techniques using needles and microcannulas.

Fitzpatrick Scale Expertise (V-VI Focus): Advanced knowledge of laser physics, parameters, and chemical strengths required to treat darker skin tones safely without inducing post-inflammatoryhyperpigmentation (PIH).

Emergency Medical Reversal Protocols: Expert skill in deploying emergency reversal agents, specifically the precise dilution and injection of hyaluronidase for vascular occlusion rescue.

Trainings

Vascular Occlusion Emergency Masterclass: Simulation-driven workshops covering early detection, high-dose pulsed hyaluronidase reversal protocols, and emergency tissue management.

Advanced Cannula Injectable Architecture: Specialized hands-on training focusing on facial contouring, mid-face volume restoration, and tear-trough correction using blunt-tip cannulas to minimize bruising and trauma.

Lasers & Energy-Based Devices in Skin of Color: Advanced laser physics coursework focusing on pulse duration, spot size, and wavelength management (e.g., long-pulsed Nd: YAG) to safely treat hyperpigmentation, keloids, and acne scars in dark skin.

Certifications

MDCN Medical Practitioner License: Active register standing with the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria

Minimum qualifications

BA/BSc/HND , MBA/MSc/MA , Professional Certificate
