IAPCAM | International Association for Prevention of Complications in Aesthetic Medicine

Working together for the management and prevention of complications

The International Association for Prevention of Complications in Aesthetic Medicine (IAPCAM) are proud sponsors of the Aesthetic Award for Distributor of the Year and would like to congratulate the winners, HealthXchange once again on their achievement.

IAPCAM is an organisation working with international doctors, all specialist in aesthetic medicine on a consensus for the management and prevention of complications.

As you are all aware there has been an increase in numbers of mis-managed complications due to an increasing numbers of practitioners oﬀering an increasing number of treatments and a range of new treatments and products each year.

Industry comments indicate that there is a growing need for expert training in the management of acute and chronic complications; particularly relating to dermal ﬁllers, and the use of hyaluronidase, when to, and when not to use, the appropriate doses to prescribe and how to manage all different complications. There is also a growing need to manage other types of aesthetic complications arising from the increased use of botulin toxin, lasers, chemical peels and the myriad other treatments available.

The aim of IAPCAM is to help the industry to establish a body of knowledge to share with medical practitioners in this ﬁeld. IAPCAM aims to provide annual consensus updates as well as practical, evidence-based hands on training, collaborating with top pharmaceutical and aesthetic companies within the UK.

IAPCAM Symposium Agenda

Last year we had a fantastic conference with an innovate agenda.

For this year’s symposium we are planning to do individual sessions on specific complications, in which we can first present a description of the complication followed by different case studies and their outcomes. Our Faculty will then provide the treatment protocol as defined through international consensus in conjunction with IAPCAM.

The focus for these case studies will be inflammatory and non-nodules, infections, granulomas and vascular complications.

For this reason we will need your help. If you have any interesting cases that you are happy to share, either presenting them yourself or through a faculty member, please contact us at info@iapcam.co.uk. so we can discuss case history and suitability.
