Circadia Launches Oncology Skin Specialist Program to Elevate Compassionate Skincare for Cancer Patients

Circadia is proud to announce the launch of our Oncology Skin Specialist Program, an innovative certification designed to equip estheticians with the knowledge and skills to provide safe, effective, and compassionate care for clients undergoing cancer treatments.

Developed in partnership with Christine Clinton Cancer Care, this hybrid learning program combines online foundations with hands-on advanced training, allowing professionals to complete coursework at their own pace while ensuring a thorough understanding of oncology-specific skincare protocols.

Comprehensive Education for Safe & Effective Skincare
The Oncology Skin Specialist Program delivers a well-rounded curriculum that addresses the unique needs of clients in active treatment or recovery.

Key learning modules include:
Understanding Cancer – Foundational knowledge of how cancer develops, spreads, and affects overall health.
Cancer Treatments & Their Impact – An in-depth look at chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, and surgery and their effects on the skin and body.
Oncology-Safe Skincare & Drug Interactions – Training on ingredient safety, product selection, and treatment modifications to accommodate cancer-compromised skin.
Oncology Skincare Protocols – Step-by-step guidance on delivering comfort-focused facials and body treatments tailored to individual needs.
Prevention & Wellness – Holistic strategies to support skin health and manage side effects during and after treatment.

With a science-backed approach and a focus on personalized care, this program empowers estheticians to make a real difference in the lives of those navigating the challenges of cancer.

Expert-Led Training by Industry Pioneers
This certification is led by two globally recognized experts in oncology esthetics, Joanne Berry & Christine Clinton. 

“Our goal is to provide estheticians with not only the knowledge but also the confidence to safely and compassionately care for clients with cancer,” said Christine Clinton. “This program is about more than skincare—it’s about empowering estheticians to be a source of comfort, support, and healing for those in need.”

A Flexible Hybrid Learning Model
The self-paced online coursework offers in-depth theory, while the in-person training sessions ensure hands-on experience with oncology-safe techniques. This hybrid structure allows professionals to integrate learning into their schedule while gaining the practical skills needed to work confidently with oncology clients.
