Ifeoma Abajue, a dermatologist, has advised Nigerians to pay more attention to skincare to stay healthy.

She gave the advice in an interview on the sidelines of the launch of the Ikeja GRA Branch of TAC on Saturday night.

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

According to Ms Abajue, TAC has trained no fewer than 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 the prominence of the skin required more attention for aesthetics, wellness and overall well-being.

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

Ms Abajue, also a Nigerian Medical Women’s Association member, said that TAC pioneered 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 skincare training closer to Lagos Mainland.

Ms 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.

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