APAN Conference 2023

The dialogue of cosmetic medicine and aesthetic practices in recent years is seeking ways to enhance our collaboration for a better client/patient outcome. As such, the theme for this year’s conference will be The Power of Convergence in the Art & Science of Aesthetics.

Convergence is about services finding new ways of doing business and interacting with society. The basic type of network convergence is the combination and connection across platforms that allows various disciplines to connect within certain common standards and protocols.

While cosmetic medicine is regulated under the AHPRA guidelines, aesthetics and dermal therapies are progressively moving within the clinical and allied health domain. As we advance our education and move towards evidence-based practice, this is strengthening and streamlining our collaboration within the various professional disciplines, creating enhanced consumer outcomes.
