What is special about this meeting is the high-quality didactic lectures with a great faculty and the small group feel which maximizes the participant experience and creates a stimulating interactive learning environment.

The latest techniques and treatments in aesthetic laser medicine will be presented at the 10th Annual ASLMS Laser Aesthetics Course on December 7-8, 2019 in Tucson, Arizona.

This popular weekend course, hosted by the American Society for Laser Medicine & Surgery, Inc. (ASLMS), is designed for dermatologists, other specialists, general practitioners, nurses, physician’s assistants, and medical aesthetic personnel who use or are investigating the use of lasers and other energy-based technologies.

Faculty includes key ASLMS thought leaders Gerald N. Goldberg, MD, course director, and J. Stuart Nelson, MD, PhD; E. Victor Ross, MD; and Emil A. Tanghetti, MD.

“We will have a new format with a full one-day thorough laser didactic session, followed by a unique half-day session highlighting live patient laser demonstrations, and some opportunity to have some “hands-on” training with a variety of laser devices,” said Goldberg. “The hands-on training will take place in an intimate private practice clinic small group setting, with expert clinical faculty. The course will have a limited enrollment to maximize participant-faculty interaction and learning, which has been a hallmark of this meeting over the years.”

This year the course will be held in Tucson, Arizona. Day one sessions will take place at the Sheraton Tucson and the day two laser demonstrations will be held at Goldberg’s Pima Dermatology Clinic in Tucson.

The course provides a broad overview of devices used in aesthetic applications to achieve optimum clinical outcomes. Topics include: Non-Ablative Rejuvenation, IPL, Microneedling and RF Microneedling, Laser Treatment of Vascular Lesions, Pigmented Lesions, Scars, Tattoos and Ethnic Skin, Laser Hair Removal, Fractional Ablative and Full Field Ablative CO2 and Erbium Resurfacing, Non-Invasive Body Contouring, Fat Reduction, Skin Tightening, Laser Complications and Laser Safety, Combining Lasers and Devices to Enhance Outcomes, and Combining Laser and Energy Sources with Cosmetic Injectables.

“What is special about this meeting is the high-quality didactic lectures with a great faculty and the small group feel which maximizes the participant experience and creates a stimulating interactive learning environment, said Goldberg. “The added bonus this year is to include some live patient demonstrations as well as an opportunity to have some “hands-on” experience with a number of lasers in a private practice clinical setting.”

Being board-certified in pediatrics and dermatology he has a special interest and expertise in the laser treatment of vascular birthmarks in children as well as in laser skin resurfacing.
