The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) Congress on Friday 4 September 2026 will focus on the future of aesthetic medicine from a multidisciplinary, regenerative perspective.
What is the RSM Congress 2026?
The theme – Shaping the Future of Aesthetic Medicine: A Multidisciplinary & Regenerative Perspective – will highlight how aesthetic medicine is evolving through regenerative science.
The congress is open to all doctors, dentists, surgeons, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals interested in aesthetic medicine and regenerative science.
The Congress will be held at the Royal Society of Medicine.
What is on the agenda for the RSM Congress 2026?
The congress will feature national and international experts in dermatology, plastic surgery, ophthalmology, maxillofacial surgery, dentistry and aesthetic medicine.
Registration opens at 08:30 on Friday 4 September, with the programme running from 09:00 to 18:15, with four sessions across the day.
Experts will examine the face through different specialty perspectives across one day, covering multidisciplinary facial assessment, anatomy and complication prevention, injectables and devices, and regenerative approaches.
Keynote sessions will be delivered by consultant orthodontist Mr Farhad B. Naini, author of the reference book Facial Aesthetics: Concepts and Clinical Diagnosis.
The programme also features the Pierre Fournier Memorial Lecture, delivered by section president, Mr Christopher Rowland-Payne.
An additional session from the RSM Section of Plastic Surgery, RSM: International Perspective on Global Reconstructive Surgery, adds a reconstructive surgery dimension to the day.
“Aesthetic medicine is at its best when specialties learn from one another. This congress brings dermatologists, plastic surgeons, ophthalmologists, maxillofacial surgeons, dentists, nurses, aesthetic physicians and other interested healthcare professionals into one room to examine the same face through different eyes, and to be honest about what the evidence supports. That is how standards rise and how patients are best served," says Dr Souphi Samizadeh, congress president, Section of Aesthetic Medicine & Surgery, Royal Society of Medicine.
