The BCDGÂ supports dermatologists with an interest in cosmetic and aesthetic dermatology through expert education, professional mentorship, and collaboration. We provide high-quality cosmetic dermatology training, including consultant-led meetings and practical, hands-on workshops, to promote safe, evidence-based practice.
Our mentorship programme connects experienced aesthetic dermatologists with those developing their practice, fostering professional growth, clinical confidence, and excellence in patient care. As a Special Interest Group of the British Association of Dermatologists (BAD), the BCDG is dedicated to raising standards, advancing knowledge, and supporting best practice across the field of aesthetic and cosmetic dermatology.
For healthcare professionals, this site also provides access to valuable resources, including educational materials, consent form templates, clinical guidelines, and training opportunities to support safe and effective cosmetic dermatology practice.
