Merz Institute of Advanced Aesthetics – Elevating Training Standards A report on the Merz Innovation Partner Workshop on March 5 and 6 The Merz Institute of Advanced Aesthetics (MIAA) is the training and education brand representing the full Merz portfolio. It is an expert-led educational brand devoted to advancing knowledge and providing UK Healthcare Practitioners with academic and practical skills to successfully compete in the area of aesthetics. Merz Aesthetics understands the value of supporting healthcare professionals (HCPs) with expert-led education and guidance on Merz brands. This requires a team of established trainers committed to raising industry standards by sharing knowledge and expertise with likeminded peers. Merz is proud to invest in the skills of the growing group of trainers, known as the Merz Innovation Partner (MIP) team, in order to fulfil our mission of putting medicine back into aesthetics. The Merz Innovation Partner workshop held in Glasgow on March 5 and 6 was hosted by the Merz Innovation Board (Dr Kate Goldie, Dr Emma Ravichandran, Dr Simon Ravichandran, Dr Julia
Sevi, nurse prescriber Helena Collier and consultant plastic and aesthetic surgeon Mr Dalvi Humzah). As recognised experts in the field of aesthetic medicine and Merz brands, this team delivered a comprehensive agenda to advance the breadth and depth of knowledge of the MIPs. The focus was to enhance skills in teaching key scientific messages relevant to making sound clinical decisions when using Merz brands. Also in attendance was special guest, Professor Sebastian Cotofana. Professor Cotofana is an internationally recognised anatomist and an Associate Professor of Anatomy at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science in Rochester, Minnesota. Professor Cotofana delivered several highly relevant and impactful applied anatomy lectures over the course of the two days to support the clinical knowledge of the MIP team. Our investment in highly-educated specialists to share knowledge and expertise will reflect on the overall quality of the training programme delivered by the Merz Institute of Advanced Aesthetics.
