Join a compelling and timely panel discussion featuring a group of esteemed doctors at the forefront of patient safety in the medical aesthetics industry. This expert panel will explore the evolving landscape of medical aesthetics, with a focus on consumer protection, clinical standards, and the critical role of physician-led oversight in aesthetic treatments.

Representing The Coalition for Medical Aesthetic Safety (CMAS) — a nonprofit organization formed in 2023 and officially filed in early 2024 — these medical professionals are united by a mission to establish and promote safe, ethical, and standardized practices in medical aesthetics across Canada and the United States.

As the popularity of aesthetic procedures continues to surge, so too do concerns about inconsistent regulations, varying levels of provider qualifications, and increasing reports of substandard or unsafe treatments. The panelists will share their insights into the challenges facing the industry, their collaborative efforts to advocate for better guidelines, and how CMAS is working to drive change through education, awareness, and policy reform.

This is a must-attend session for practitioners, policymakers, and anyone interested in the future of safe, patient-centered care in the aesthetics field. Expect an engaging dialogue that blends clinical expertise, regulatory insight, and a passionate commitment to public health and safety.
