The British Medical Laser Association (BMLA) has announced speakers for its Annual Conference and Educational Courses taking place on May 8-10 at the Park Inn by Raddison, Heathrow.
The conference is open to all who are directly
or indirectly involved in the use of such devices. Tom Lister, chair of the
scientific committee at the BMLA, said, “The BMLA always start the conference
with laser core of knowledge and skin courses. These courses are highly
subscribed and the demand for spaces has grown year on year.
By popular demand,
hair removal and vascular lasers are now two separate courses.” Confirmed
speakers include Professor Enrico Bernè who will be outlining the use of laser
on facial and vascular lesions, Dr Koushik Lahiri who will detail using fractional
CO2 lasers in the management of scars in Indian patients, and Dr Samantha Hills
who will be discussing laser hair removal. Amongst the other sessions, there
will be a nursing and therapist session, presented by experienced nurses in the
specialty, outlining the use of combined laser and intense pulsed light
treatment for skin rejuvenation.
Lister said, “The conference is the leading
laser conference in the UK and this is reflected in both the quality of the
talks and the culture of lively and respectful debate. We’re excited to have so
many exceptional speakers this year; it is set to be an outstanding academic
agenda for anyone interested in lasers and light sources in medical
applications.”
