Why women take skincare more seriously than men

A dermatologist and Chief Executive Officer of The Aesthetic Clinic (TAC), has advised Nigerians to pay more attention to skincare as a strategy to stay healthy.

She gave the advice in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on the sidelines of launch of the Ikeja GRA Branch of TAC on Saturday night.

NAN reports that TAC held training sessions for aestheticians, dermatologists and skincare givers at the launch.

The training was tagged: “Beyond the Surface”.

According to Abajue, TAC has trained no fewer that 300 women in the past six months on skincare and beauty therapy.

She noted that the skin covered the largest percentage of the human body and needed special treatment.

She said that because of the prominence of the skin, it required more attention for aesthetics, wellness and overall well-being.

According to Abajue, who is a member of the Nigerian Medical Association and Nigerian Association of Dermatologists, TAC will do its best to bridge skincare and beauty therapy deficit in Nigeria.

Abajue, also a member of Nigerian Medical Women’s Association, said that TAC was a pioneer in skincare, aesthetics and dermatology therapy in Nigeria.

She said that the launch of the Ikeja Branch of TAC was to bring beauty products, services and training in skincare closer to Lagos Mainland.

Abajue added that the firm offered over 40 courses in beauty, cosmetic science, chemistry, manicure and pedicure, massages, facials, laser, micro-needling and nail technology, among others.

She said that in spite of economic challenges, women especially still desired to care about their skin to look good and stay healthy.

Tomi Omowole, Head of Strategy at KTMedia Company, said the first edition of ‘Beyond The Surface’ held in August at Lekki, noting that Saturday’s edition was the second.

Omowole, whose firm organised the training, said the event was also aimed at bringing together aestheticians to consider forming an association in Nigeria.

She said that TAC had branches at Lekki Abuja, Accra, Montreal, Toronto, London, and Manchester.
