AESTHETIC SERIES: MINA
Chicago

The world’s first and only dermatologist-created and dermatologist-led program
built exclusively for skin-focused providers and licensed aestheticians.

February 27-28, 2026
9:00am - 5:30pm

Oak Dermatology
Naperville, IL 

MINA is not protocol training. It’s clinical skin mastery.

This is where skin science, laser technology, and ingredient intelligence intersect — so every treatment you deliver is intentional, explainable, and clinically sound.

Created for professionals who work with skin every day and want to understand why they’re choosing a treatment — not just how to perform it — MINA reshapes the way you assess, plan, and treat skin at a medical level.

This is where surface-level ends — and true skin intelligence begins.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Skin science, reimagined — understanding skin function, pathology, and repair
  • Ingredient intelligence — how to read, evaluate, and curate formulations like a clinician
  • Clinical skin conditions & noninvasive treatment pathways — identifying common conditions and selecting evidence-based topical, device, peel, or referral strategies
  • Laser & device foundations — what treats what, and why
  • Post-procedure repair & recovery — real-world protocols that matter
  • Complication awareness & management
  • Business & professional positioning — how mastery builds trust and demand

This program was built to close the gap between aesthetic practice and medical understanding — and to help you stand out in an increasingly crowded field.
