What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in somatology, complemented by basic knowledge in marketing. My experience includes working alongside an aesthetic doctor, where I exercised autonomy, sound judgment, and a proactive approach to my responsibilities. I have assisted with medical aesthetic treatments and provided body and skincare services, offering targeted solutions for specific skin concerns as well as general skincare, slimming, and hair restoration treatments.
In addition to my clinical responsibilities, I contributed to the clinic’s visibility by creating engaging content and occasionally writing informative articles for our local newspaper. I am self-motivated, positive, and possess strong communication and organizational skills. Adaptable and passionate about my work, I exhibit natural leadership and am eager to learn and grow in a new professional environment.
