About me
My name is Anna Kołodziejczak — a practitioner in cosmetology, assistant professor, lecturer, and popularizer of science
I actively connect the world of science, practice, and education — I operate wherever knowledge meets the real needs of the profession. For 13 years, I have been a lecturer at the Medical University of Łódź in the field of cosmetology. How it all started.
Cosmetology is not just my profession — it is my path
From the moment I started my studies, I knew that cosmetology was my path. I had no doubts for a moment.
While studying, I absorbed knowledge with great commitment — at the same time, I was already working in the profession, learning closely about the daily life of a clinic.
After completing my master's degree, the natural step was to pursue a doctorate, which I completed with honors. Today, as an assistant professor in the Department of Cosmetology and Aesthetic Dermatology at the Medical University of Łódź, I strive to convey to students not only theory but also a practical perspective on the profession that has given me so much.

I create content that educates future generations
I am the creator, scientific editor, and main author of the bestselling series “Kosmetologia” — a four-volume compendium of knowledge that has permanently found its place in the libraries of students, practitioners, and lecturers.
These are not “ordinary textbooks” — they are the result of years of work, combining science with practice, and above all, a responsibility towards future specialists. I care that the knowledge conveyed is not only reliable but also understandable and useful in daily clinical work.

Outside of work — I am simply Ania
I find happiness in my family — in my husband Miłosz, my daughter Lilianka, and my son Witus. They are my everyday life, my support, but also my greatest motivation to keep developing.
Instead of distant travels, which once were a source of fulfillment and rest for me, I now cherish the silence of walks in the forest, mindfulness in small things, contact with nature, and moments of pause.
For years, I have also been close to psychology and spirituality. I believe that a good specialist is not only someone with knowledge and practice but also someone with an open heart and attentiveness to people.

W gabinecie
Doświadczony kosmetolog-praktyk
Praktyka gabinetowa od lat pozostaje dla mnie równie ważna jak praca naukowa. To ona pozwala konfrontować wiedzę z codziennymi wyzwaniami kosmetologa i tworzyć rozwiązania, które są nie tylko skuteczne, ale również bezpieczne i zgodne z fizjologią skóry.
