COSMETIC SURGERY THERAPY CERTIFICATION - PDF (1)

1. COSMETIC SURGERY THERAPY CERTIFICATION 2 The global cosmetic surgery market was $44.55 billion USD in 2020. The market is projected to grow from $46.02 billion USD in 2021 to $58.78 billion USD in 2028. Because this area of healthcare has grown so significantly over the past several years, far more clinicians are needed to treat this population. As recently as the late 2000s, post- operative recovery in cosmetic plastic surgery was a non- existent entity. Then in 2009 a New York City Physical Therapist specializing in post-op recovery from reconstructive plastic surgery brought her skills and expertise to cosmetic plastic surgery. Nicole Psomas developed a method and protocol for post-operative recovery, pioneering a niche in the industry. In 2019 she published the "The Psomas Method" in a 367-page comprehensive book titled After The Cut: How To Prepare For and Recover From Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. Nicole has now partnered with the Norton School to launch a course to teach preparation and recovery from cosmetic plastic surgery to clinicians throughout the United States. 4 CLASS TOPICS the basic lymphatic system evaluation and identification of post-op complications Manual Lymph drainage (MLD) of the face and body compression bandages and garments ecchymosis (bruising) and edema management with modalities, supplements, and diet scar management pain management and relaxation training marketing and fees for services https://www.nortonschool.com/cosmetic-surgery- therapy-certification-course.html
