Welcome to the September issue of Aesthetic Medicine Magazine

After a refreshing summer break, we’re thrilled to return with amagazine filled with the latest industry news, expert insights, and, most importantly, astrong focus on education—a cornerstone of excellence in our field.

This issue is dedicated to the vital role of continuous education in aesthetic medicine. As our sector rapidly evolves, staying informed and updated is crucial for delivering the highest standard of care to patients. That’s why we’ve packed this edition with articles designed to enhance your knowledge and skills. From Dr Marcus Mehta’s piece on why ongoing education is essential (p 54) to Alex Bugg's piece on where to distribute educational information (p 80), we’ve got you covered with content that’s both practical and thought-provoking.

As we transition into autumn, we look forward to Aesthetic Medicine North on September 28-29 in Manchester. This event promises to be ahighlight of the season, offering arobust educational agenda tailored to help you stay at the forefront of the industry. In this issue, we’ve included a comprehensive preview ofAM North (p 21), with details on the educational sessions you won’t want to miss (page 23) and a look at the cutting-edge products and brands that will be on display (p 27).

Education isn’t just about attending events—it’s about continuously learning from every experience and interaction. Whether you’re reading Dr Mayoni Gooneratne’s article on cell optimisation (p 45) or diving into Dr Patrick Treacy’s insights on LED therapy (p 58), we hope this issue provides you with valuable knowledge to apply in your practice.

As we head into anew season, let’s commit to expanding our expertise and elevating standards of care. We look forward to seeing many of you in Manchester, where we’ll continue this journey of learning together.

Warm regards,
