Four Tracks. One Credentialing Authority.
Each track culminates in a Certificate of Advanced Professional Training awarded by Dr. Rusnak Academy.
The Academy does not teach a trade. It establishes a standard, certifies those who meet it, and convenes the community of practitioners who carry it forward. Each credential below is structured around the same discipline: a curriculum, an examination, and a certificate awarded by the institution.
The foundation credential. Scar camouflage, stretchmark restoration, and the clinical fundamentals on which the Academy’s other certifications build.
