Aesthetic Medicine Live 2020 conference programme announced
We reveal the topics and speakers featuring in the clinical conference at Aesthetic Medicine Live 2020 on February 29-March 1.
2020 will see the start of a new decade and, as we move in to the future, Aesthetic Medicine Live is here to help your clinic stay at the cutting edge with more education, exhibitors and launches than ever.
Taking place at Olympia London on February 29-March 1, Aesthetic Medicine Live is the first major UK meeting of the year. Encompassing a two-day, two-agenda CPD-accredited clinical conference, a two-day business workshop programme, Live Stage and an ever-growing exhibition displaying market-leading brands, Aesthetic Medicine Live is a must-attend for aesthetic practitioners and business owners.
One of the things that makes aesthetics such an exciting sector to work in is the diverse range of patients the treatments, techniques and procedures can help. This year’s clinical conference will follow the theme of diversity, examining the different types of patients seeking aesthetic enhancement and how we can help them.
Below is a first reveal of our line up for the event.
