There is no such thing as a 'dermalogist'. It is a fictional name used by Ronald Dante who was later convicted of 10 of 11 counts of criminal contemp filed against him and his company in 1997. The fictional title has also been associated with fast-track mass training of permanent cosmetics. quote from http://www.ftc.gov/opa/1997/11/scofflaw.shtm The government's action against Dante stemmed from a February 1990 case in which the FTC alleged that Dante, doing business as the Perma-Derm Academy and the American Dermalogy Association, misrepresented both the training he provided at his "permanent makeup" workshops and the certification he awarded to attendees. According to the complaint, Dante misrepresented that students enrolled in the workshops, upon completion of the course, would: (1) be competent in applying permanent makeup -- a form of tattooing such things as eyeliner and lipliner -- and receive valuable credentials; (2) be able to apply permanent makeup legally in the state in which they reside without state regulations or restrictions; and (3) earn at least or up to $500 an hour.
