About ISAM

This Is How Our Story Began

International School of Aesthetic Medicine
At ISAM, we believe that excellence in aesthetic medicine begins with solid, practical training guided by scientific rigor, clinical experience, and a deep understanding of human anatomy and beauty.

Founded by a team of leading professionals in the field, ISAM was created to meet the growing demand for specialized, hands-on education in aesthetic medicine.

Our mission is to train healthcare professionals to deliver safe, effective, and ethical treatments, based on international standards and the latest innovations in the industry.

We combine traditional medical knowledge with modern aesthetic techniques, offering an educational path that blends theory, practice, and continuous mentoring.

Our Mission

At ISAM, our mission is simple yet powerful: to elevate the standards of aesthetic medicine education by empowering healthcare professionals with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to transform lives.

We are committed to creating an academic environment where science meets artistry, where every injection, every treatment, and every patient interaction is backed by a foundation of evidence-based protocols and ethical practice.

Our mission goes beyond technical mastery. We aim to instill a sense of professional integrity, a dedication to patient safety, and a passion for lifelong learning.

 

By doing so, we prepare our students not only to succeed in their careers, but also to set new benchmarks of quality in their clinics, their communities, and the wider field of aesthetic medicine.

Every course we design, every trainer we select, and every innovation we embrace is guided by this commitment: to shape responsible, competent, and visionary professionals in aesthetic medicine.

Our Approach

ISAM’s educational model is built on three pillars: clinical expertise, practical immersion, and personalized mentorship.

We believe true competence in aesthetic medicine comes not only from theory, but from guided, hands-on practice.

For this reason, our training focuses on small-group sessions where each participant receives individual feedback from experienced instructors while practicing on real patients under supervision.

Our faculty is composed of renowned clinicians who share not only procedures, but also the protocols and decision-making strategies they apply daily in their own practice.

To support continuous learning, ISAM combines live in-person modules with access to a digital platform featuring on-demand videos, theoretical resources, and clinical case studies.

This integrated approach ensures that what you learn at ISAM can be confidently applied in your professional setting from day one.

An International Vision

From its foundation, ISAM was designed to become a global hub for aesthetic medicine education, bringing together professionals from different countries and clinical backgrounds.

We believe that sharing international perspectives enhances education and fosters innovation. For this reason, we actively collaborate with clinics, institutions, and universities across Europe and beyond, giving our students access to a global network of knowledge and opportunities.

Our courses are structured according to European Union educational standards, ensuring training that is practical, up-to-date, and internationally recognizable.

ISAM welcomes students worldwide through multilingual support, inclusive teaching methods, and flexible learning formats, helping them grow into skilled and ethical professionals in aesthetic medicine.

Who We Train

ISAM is dedicated to training licensed healthcare professionals who wish to enter or deepen their expertise in the field of aesthetic medicine.

 

Our programs are specifically designed to meet the educational and clinical needs of:

  • Medical Doctors (general practitioners, dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and other specialties)

  • Dentists, especially those interested in perioral aesthetics and facial harmonization

  • Nurses and healthcare practitioners, where legally permitted and within the scope of national regulations

We understand that each profession brings its own perspective and clinical background, which is why our teaching model is modular, adaptive, and inclusive. Whether you’re a beginner with no prior experience or an advanced practitioner looking to refine specific techniques, ISAM offers progressive pathways that match your level and professional goals.

Before enrolling, each candidate undergoes a preliminary evaluation and orientation, ensuring they are placed in the right course based on experience and scope of practice.

This helps us maintain a high-quality learning environment where everyone progresses together, safely and effectively.

At ISAM, we don’t just train injectors, we shape professionals who understand the medical, aesthetic, and human dimensions of their work.
