Following the disappointment of the American Association of Dermatology meeting in San Francisco, it was very refreshing to attend IMCAS Asia in Thailand. With its wonderful, simple and efficient organization, as well as its well balanced program of education and new product demonstration, it certainly demonstrated that in this instance the French can certainly show the rest of the world how to run a conference. The lectures, which contained a perfect mixture of new innovation and evidence, lifted the gloom that I had felt after returning from San Francisco. (more…)

BACD meeting in Monte Carlo and ‘The Madonna Lift’

Friday, November 20th, 2009

The meeting of the British Association of Cosmetic Doctors in Monte Carlo was excellent as usual, with the ongoing education of members to the fore, as always. We also had confirmation that our ideas about which technology is best for a fat removal was correct – watch this space.

The next important meeting for us will be the annual IMCAS meeting in Paris in January 2010, when this year we will also be taking two of our most promising employees, Stefanie Williams and Karen Huxley with us, so that they to can gain invaluable experience of what is new in the Cosmetic Medicine world. As a clinic we feel that such investment in our staff is essential if we are to offer the best treatments available to our clients.

P.S. ‘The Madonna Lift’:

Dr Katz in New York, has apparently developed the ‘Madonna lift’ for the eyes, a treatment we have been carrying out very successfully for over a year. So for our patients who have had CO2 Fractional laser resurfacing around the eyes, you’ve had the ‘Madonna Lift’, before Madonna had it herself!!

What’s on the horizon?

After the disappointment of my visit to San Francisco, the program for the FACE Conference now has me in the depths of despair. It seems that the marketing men have managed to have taken over completely, with most of the time being allocated to firms selling equipment, with a marked absence of any educational content. Like many other clinics in the UK, we have decided not to attend the FACE, for the first time in its history. Instead we are concentrating on visits to IMCAS, in Asia in July 2009 and in Paris in Jan 2010. We will also be attending the annual meeting of the British Association of Cosmetic Doctors in Oct 2009.

We will keep you informed of the new developments which always arise from these excellent meetings.

Recent Aquisitions at IMCAS Conferences

Monday, April 6th, 2009

Over the last 9 months I have attended IMCAS World Conferences in both Paris and Singapore which have enabled me to source not only the most up to-date treatments available anywhere, but also the most cost effective. A very important consideration in these turbulent times. (more…)
