Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are truly fortunate to be holding the 2025 SEASON Aesthetic Conferences and 3rd SEASON Safety Summit at three outstanding centres of aesthetic excellence in Washington, Florence and Singapore. All are historical landmarks, inspiring testaments to the progress of medical science, and living museums of extraordinary power and beauty.

SEASON is a non-commercialized scientific exchange organized by the Global Aesthetics Alliance (GAA), with the mission of evidence over marketing, aesthetic myth-busting, and frank and fearless debate on today’s aesthetic challenges and controversies.

SEASON Washington and Singapore feature hands-on cadaver workshops with a unique learning format described by attendees as the best they ever experienced, and conference masterclasses at such a high level that even our faculty say SEASON is the place where they come to learn. Attendance on site is strictly limited to maximize interaction.

The SEASON Safety Summit features interactive case studies; the latest safety research, concepts and controversies for Injectables, Regenerative Medicine, Skin Science and Threads; and a special section on Safety in Social Media. Be prepared for some surprises, as we challenge current thinking, honestly appraise the evidence and forge a new way forward together in aesthetic science and safety.

No promotion. No marketing.

Just Science, Anatomy, Safety and Evidence.

What makes SEASON different?

We understand and respect that delegates sacrifice time in their clinics and offices and incur significant expenses to attend conferences. Our aim is to offer training and education that are worthy of this—a stellar global faculty with academic and scientific priorities who will catalyse an unsurpassed agenda of hands-on training and interactive debates with no hidden commercial conflicts of interest.

We draw our faculty not only from global experts within dermatology, plastic surgery, anatomy and basic science, but also from maxillofacial surgery, regenerative medicine, medical ethics, gerontology, and myriad other worlds that are crucial to true understanding of our aesthetic present and future.

Structure

SEASON conferences are CME/CPD-accredited. Each has its own unique agenda with the primary goal of promoting evidence-based medicine and scientific excellence. A core component is the full day of advanced training in anatomy, ultrasound and procedural techniques.

Registration options are offered for in-person and virtual attendance.

SEASON also features interactive scientific sessions, each based on a Statement of Unmet Educational Need and evidence-based Learning Objectives. The conference agenda is novel, relevant and exciting for today’s practitioner, encompassing Aesthetic Myth-Busters, cutting-edge concepts, and innovations in standards of care and best practice.

The final day of SEASON brings together physicians, scientists and media representatives to discuss procedural safety, technological innovations, and other key topics. This is an interactive forum for debate, dialogue and consensus, during which every voice in the room counts.

Objectives

The theme for SEASON 2024–25 is Therapeutic Aesthetics—a captivating exploration of how medical discoveries are impacting our understanding of aging and our evolving strategies with injectables, threads, lasers, regenerative technologies and skin science.

Since the start of our initiative over 10 years ago, we strive to address the increasing diversity of our patient populations with respect to ethnicity, gender, culture and age, and how this impacts treatment planning and outcomes. In reflecting these objectives, SEASON has some key features with respect to its logistics, format and agenda:

• Hands-on sessions offer practical, small-group training and individualized preceptorship in essential areas including face and body anatomy, ultrasound imaging, advanced fillers, threads and toxins, use of cannulas, expert face and body analysis, and treatment planning.
• The SEASON Journal Club develops essential skills of critical thinking to analyse the latest publications and research, and what they really mean for everyday aesthetic practice.
• A non-commercialized New Technologies session for unbiased, evidence-based discussion of innovations that will shape our future.
• Like the Conference Directors, all SEASON faculty are actively engaged in academic teaching and most have appointments at universities, teaching hospitals or plastic surgery and dermatology academies. Our faculty have been specifically selected for their commitment to evidence-based medicine, non-promotional and fair-balanced education, and clinical integrity.
• Participation of industry scientists in SEASON is by invitation only, and limited to truth-tellers dedicated to procedural safety, evidence-based education, and real research. A select group of companies and laboratories serve as conference partners rather than sponsors, by providing educational grants to help defray conference expenses. They have no control or influence over the scientific program.

To fulfil these objectives and create intimate dialogues between delegates and faculty, attendance at SEASON is strictly limited. Registration is available now and will close when all places are filled.

In closing, we extend our thanks to our hosts for SEASON, and to the professional societies and journals who are joining us as Academic Partners. We also thank our meeting planners, Globewerks International, whose tireless logistical support is essential to bringing SEASON together, and Giri Srinivasan for graphics & web design and conference technical development.

We wish all delegates, faculty and conference partners of SEASON 2025 an inspiring, interesting and productive experience at two of the world’s finest academic institutions. If we can be of any help, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly.

Sincerely,
The SEASON Conference Directors:

• Dr. Valerie Callender, MD FAAD
• Dr. Tamara Griffiths, MD FRCP FAAD
• Dr. Dalvi Humzah, MBBS FRCS
• Dr. Hema Sundaram, MB BChir (Cantab) MA FAAD
