ASCPD Symposium
The Australasian Society of Cosmetic and Procedural Dermatologists (ASCPD) invites you to the ASCPD Symposium on 20-22 March 2026 at the Crown Conference Centre, Melbourne.
This coming year’s program will equip delegates with the latest knowledge and skills for treating clients, plus practice owners will be able to participate in upskilling to benefit their business.
ASCPD President Professor Goodman AM notes that ‘the change in our services is tangible with the rise of superficial fillers, biostimulators, biorejuvenators, extracellular vesicles and new arrivals of botulinum and combination fillers. It is a flood and it’s our mission with our great faculty to unravel this and make it all understandable and usable.’
