IMCAS ASIA 2020 Preview
A first look at the Asian edition of the International Master Course on Ageing Science
IMCAS is traveling to Bangkok, Thailand from October 15-17 in collaboration with The International Thaicosderm Congress of Aesthetic Medicine (ITCAM) of the Thai Society of Cosmetic Dermatology and Surgery (THAICOSDERM) to host the 14th edition of IMCAS Asia.
The event was conceived to create a meeting ground for medical professionals in dermatology, plastic surgery and related fields. The scientific programme offers more than 160 sessions featuring the latest research and techniques with a systematic look at specificities of Asian morphologies, so that attendees may provide the best care to patients of all ethnicities. 15 key themes, including injectables, lasers and energybased devices, clinical dermatology, genital treatments, regenerative medicine, face and body surgery, form the foundation to underpin attendees’ progress.
