What is this Dual Degree Cosmetic Gynaecology Program all about & What is the need?
This Cosmetic Gynaecology Training program called the ICCG Dual Degree Course which gives double certification of Diploma in Cosmetic Gynaecology as well as Masters Course in Cosmetic Gynaecology is the Best Course for Hands-on Cosmetic Gynecology Training, as well as Urogynecology & Regenerative Gynecology Training . Cosmetic Gynaecology has seen an ever-increasing patient & physician demand in recent pass. The procedures typically fall in reign of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, however, a few plastic surgeons have also developed interest in this field. However, private practitioners only have been providing most of these procedures, and all the providing physicians have learnt it over short courses from other private practitioners, without any serious involvement of academia. None of the Obstetrics & Gynaecology residency programs world-wide presently teaches this subject matter in detail.
The only deep & serious in-roads into Cosmetic Gynecology Training & Teaching in academia were made at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Rishikesh in last decade where a 3 years post-doctoral M.Ch. Residency program imparting Cosmetic Gynecology Training was started under Professor Navneet Magon as the Founder Head of Division of Reconstructive & Cosmetic Gynaecology as well as Founder Program Director & Thesis Guide of M.Ch. Program in Cosmetic Gynaecology. Professor Magon curated a 3 years comprehensive full time residential teaching & training program in Reconstructive & Cosmetic Gynaecology, which finally got approved by National Medical Commission of India in 2020, establishing Cosmetic Gynaecology as a recognised subspeciality of Ob-Gyn. This laid the academic foundations of a new sub-specialty in Gynaecology with an aim to produce a physician completely trained in reconstructive and cosmetic gynaecological surgical & non-surgical interventions.
After Professor Magon left AIIMS Rishikesh in 2022, M.Ch. Cosmetic Gynecology training program was unable to continue because of non-availability of any other competent faculty to teach & impart proper Cosmetic Gynecology Training. Therefore, in order to continue the academic growth of Cosmetic Gynaecology, Indian College of Cosmetic Gynaecology (ICCG), which is the academic wing of The Society of Cosmetic Gynaecology of India, engaged Professor Navneet Magon as its Dean & Chief of Faculty and started both short-term & long-term cosmetic gynecology training programs using the same curriculum & syllabus which Professor Magon had developed for M.Ch. program in Cosmetic Gynaecology at AIIMS. Based upon the varying needs of doctors from all across the world, training programs from 3 days to 3 years were established by ICCG and in last 3 years, more than 500 Obstetrician-Gynaecologists, Plastic Surgeons, Dermatologists & Aesthetic Physicians have been trained at ICCG in Cosmetic Gynaecology making ICCG Trainings as the most successful training program in Cosmetic Gynaecology worldwide. ICCG currently offers a Diploma in Cosmetic Gynaecology, Masters Course in Cosmetic Gynaecology, One Year Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Cosmetic Gynaecology Program (Hybrid) and a Full time Residency Fellowship in Cosmetic Gynaecology upto 3 years duration, all of which are very successful and best in class cosmetic gynecology training programs, fulfilling varying needs of different doctors. Doctors have come from U.S.A., Europe, Africa & other Asian nations besides each & every Indian State to get trained from Professor Magon at ICCG. Numerous fellows of Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists (RCOG) from U.K and also fellows of American College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists (ACOG) from U.S.A. have come to India to get Cosmetic Gynecology Training at ICCG under Professor Magon.
A huge number of clinicians worldwide have been requesting to create a ONE WEEK training program with Professor Navneet Magon under ICCG, so that they can learn the art & craft of surgical & non-surgical Cosmetic Gynaecology together, and also learn about the various aspects of Urogynaecology & Regenerative Gynaecology. Furthermore, almost 50% of our Master Grads were the ones who upgraded themselves after the ICCG Diploma, once again putting their trust on us after they were fully satisfied with the training goals achieved in Diploma Courses. But many of them, wanted to have an opportunity to come together for a week and get both the DIPLOMA & MASTERS in one go. Therefore, we have devised a ONE WEEK TRAINING where the first 3 days shall be devoted to Non-Surgical parts of Cosmetic Gynaecology as well as non-surgical aspects of Urogynaecology & Regenerative Gynaecology and the last 4 days shall be devoted to Surgical aspects of Reconstructive & Cosmetic Gynaecology as well as Urogynaecology. Participant Trainees shall have the flexibility to enrol for either the Diploma Course or for the Dual Degree Together. There was also a long-standing demand from our previous Diploma Grads to give them an option to attend ONLY SURGICAL COURSE and hereon, for the very first time, they shall have the option to join only for the last 4 days of the program and earn their Masters in Cosmetic Gynaecology.
- Therefore, this Dual Degree Program has three enrolment options:
- Full 7 Days
- Diploma in Cosmetic Gynaecology + Masters Course in Cosmetic Gynaecology
- First 3 Days
- Diploma in Cosmetic Gynaecology
- Last 4 Days
- Masters Course in Cosmetic Gynaecology
- (Enrolment STRICTLY only for those who already have ICCG Diploma)
