Dear Colleague:

You are cordially invited to attend the 7th annual Symposium being held on February 12-16, 2009, at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel. The South Beach Symposium has become one of the “must attend” dermatologic and aesthetic events of the year!

The South Beach Symposium hosts one of the most distinguished educational faculties in the world. Our faculty will offer cutting edge knowledge and experience in medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology, including the latest developments and techniques, as well as multiple live patient workshops. In addition, over a 100 international and national vendors from all types of dermatologic and cosmetic practice areas will be present to showcase the latest products, research, devices and equipment.

For 2009, we will be presenting several advanced certification workshops in botulinum toxin type A, new fillers, and featuring a number of world leaders in cosmetic and aesthetic dermatology. We will offer multiple live patient demonstrations on new laser, light and RF devices discussing and demonstrating the latest devices and techniques. There will be advanced clinical and therapeutic dermatology updates on antibiotics, photodynamic therapy, immune response modulators, various combination therapies, biologic therapies for psoriasis, wound care and much more. Once again this year, you can take advantage of the many cultural activities available including the Miami International boat show, the Coconut Grove Art show, and one of the nicest beaches in the world.

The program sold out quickly, so make sure you sign up as quickly as possible for this year’s outstanding event. The 2009 South Beach Symposium will offer cutting edge medical education and training in clinical dermatology, aesthetic enhancement and practice management from world leaders in dermatology and aesthetic surgery.
