This roundtable will explore the impact of thyroid function on skin health, providing estheticians with a comprehensive understanding of how conditions like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism can influence skin appearance and behavior. We will discuss the importance of a collaborative approach, where estheticians partner with other healthcare professionals to support clients with thyroid-related skin concerns.
Learning Objectives:
- Review the role of the thyroid and its impact on skin health, including the hormonal effects of thyroid imbalances on skin hydration.
- Identify common signs of thyroid dysfunction in the skin to better support clients during consultations.
- Discuss the benefits of integrating care with medical professionals to enhance client care and address both internal and external needs related to thyroid-induced skin changes.
