Faramarz Rafie MD / Vancoderm Academy & College / Vancoderm Clinic (VDCMed)
Mastering the field of Medical Aesthetics requires a well-structured and thoughtful approach. We can break this process down into four essential steps:
Having a clear plan, vision, motivation, and defined goals
- Studying at a well-established, high-quality college with proven experience and a strong curriculum in this field
- Accessing reputable and up-to-date reference books
- Training under the guidance of knowledgeable and experienced instructors and mentors
In this journey, it’s crucial to stay committed to personal and professional growth. Don’t just be a strong beginner — aim to become an even stronger continuer. Avoid baseless negative thoughts that hinder progress.
Advanced education in this field especially depends on the following four pillars:
- Observation
- Assisting
- Performing treatments under expert supervision
- Studying before and after performing treatments to continually improve skills and elevate the quality of care
At Vancoderm Academy and College, we consistently perform student gap analyses to identify their learning needs and support them effectively. This allows us to enhance their knowledge, techniques, skill outcomes, and professional confidence.
We focus on building students’ self-confidence by continuously observing their performance and enhancing their skills and knowledge. Through this approach, we help them grow their own confidence in a real and sustainable way.
We understand the importance of working with confidence. Improving knowledge in the right way significantly enhances success rates. It equips students to recognize possible conditions and develop appropriate treatment plans. Additionally, it ensures they are aware of potential side effects and know how to provide proper post-procedure care for their clients.
At Vancoderm Academy & College, We Believe:
True literacy in any field means being able to convert knowledge into financial value and create a sustainable income source — which ultimately leads to more advanced scientific treatment services and improves the overall quality of life in our society.
This belief is not just a philosophy — it is backed by global research and real-world outcomes.
📌 Why This Definition of “Literacy” Matters
Research consistently shows that specialized knowledge combined with practical skills directly correlates with increased earning potential and employability:
OECD Study (2016):
The report “The Impact of Literacy, Numeracy and Computer Skills on Earnings and Employment Outcomes” reveals that individuals with higher proficiency in specialized skills have significantly better job prospects and higher income levels compared to those without them.
Canadian Research on Adult Skills & Income:
Studies in Canada indicate a clear link between an individual’s literacy level and their income. It’s not only what you know — but how effectively you can use that knowledge to contribute, create, and earn.
Skill-to-Income Relationship Studies (e.g., in economics and labor research):
Findings show that skills that can be applied in real-life settings — especially when complemented by mentorship and business understanding — have measurable financial value. In other words, knowledge becomes an asset when it leads to capability, confidence, and revenue.
