Melanin-rich skin tones, specifically those categorized as Fitzpatrick levels IV-VI, are vastly under-represented in the professional skin care industry’s training curricula. Classes often omit how skin conditions present in darker skin tone variations which causes a learning gap that can lead to inequalities in skin care, from the initial client consultation through skin analysis and treatment. Dermalogica has launched Treating Melanin-Rich Skin, an online course for skin therapists and future industry professionals to strengthen their foundational knowledge of understanding and treating melanin-rich skin.
In this 3 part series, we explore skin conditions and treatments with the leading experts featured in the free online course.
