Independent accreditation body Save Face has confirmed that it has launched a series of training events to help aesthetic practitioners more easily recognise
and diagnose body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).
The training will be provided by mental health charity Mind and will cover a number of topics including; an overview of mental health problems, support and treatments available, recognising the signs and how to respond and manage challenging situations.
Clinical director at Save Face and registered nurse Emma Davies commented, “We are very excited to be able to offer this training which we hope will equip our practitioners with the skills and expertise they need to support the many people they are likely to come across who may be experiencing difficulties with their mental health.”
