Cosmetic Medicine Congress Of South Africa (COSMEDICA) Congress 2019

9th edition of Cosmetic Medicine Congress of South Africa (COSMEDICA) Congress 2019 is organized by Europa Organisation Africa (EOA) and will be held from Sep 26 - 28, 2019 at Four Seasons Hotel The Westcliff, Johannesburg, Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa.

Many experienced aesthetic practitioners are frustrated with the lack of “next level” training available today. They believe that traditional training courses are redundant – lacking the creativity and ingenuity to teach the skills necessary to thrive in today’s increasingly competitive aesthetic market. Simply put, they are seeking something different. 

Cosmedica 2019 is different. We’ve challenged traditional thinking and created an elite training course inspired by lessons learned from the world’s most successful practices – presented as a blueprint to significantly grow your competency.

Regardless of where you are today, you will find that next level of achievement at Cosmedica 2019.

Vision in 2019 is to allow you, the practitioner, to test your skills under the direct supervision of a master injector. The idea was to create a different kind of training – a training inspired by the world’s top practices. So we invited some of the world’s top injectors to help and guide you to refine your skills.

Unlike traditional conferences, Cosmedica 2019 will be a hands-on full-day injecting workshop for delegates. If you are shy to show off your skills in front of your colleagues, you are welcome to be an observer.

Cosmedica will officially kick off on Thursday 26 September with 2 pre-congress courses. If you are injecting noses, the nonsurgical rhinoplasty course with Dr. Ash Labib is a must. The course will cover detailed injection anatomy for the nose as well as give the doctor the opportunity to inject a nose under the direct supervision of Dr. Labib.

The second pre-congress course focuses on lips. Julie Horne will demonstrate her world famous technique on injecting lips. Lip injecting is art so go check out her Instagram account to see her beautiful creations. Each delegate will be given an opportunity to inject a person of their choice.

You will also have a choice to do both pre-congress courses on Thursday 26 September if you wish to do so.

The hands-on workshop for facial rejuvenation will take place on Friday 27 September and will be divided into Beginners and Intermediate/ Advanced groups.  The workshop is split into groups of 12 during the course of the day. Delegates will have the opportunity to inject one of the following areas in the beginner group : cheeks or peri-oral area or nasolabial folds.

The delegates in the intermediate/advanced group can choose to inject one of the following areas: temples or tear trough or combined chin and jawline.

The 2019 course aims to provide intensive training on Surgical and Non-Surgical procedures on Cosmetic & Aesthetic Gynecology. The duration of the course is 4 days, which include both theory and full live surgery training on live cases.

The training program will include:

Theory:
•  The basic theory of Surgical and Non-Surgical Cosmetic & Aesthetic Gynecology

Attendees will be able to participate in live Surgical and Non-Surgical cases and learn tips and tricks of Cosmetic & Aesthetic Gynecology. The program will include a maximum number of 8-10 live cases with the full spectrum of the related indications.

Following the hand on injection workshops, there will be a jam-packed program of presentations on Saturday 28 September. The program will reinforce injection anatomy, discuss the business of aesthetics, lasers, peels and so much more.

Have not forgotten about somatologists and have curated a program specifically for them on Sat 28 Sept. On Sun 29 Sep, look out for an international celebrity makeup artist who will teach tips and techniques on how to reveal light and conceal shadows on the face.

Our goal is to compress your learning curve so that you can rapidly and more effectively incorporate these “breakthroughs” into your practice with confidence and certainty.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
