Magical. Incredible. Inspiring.
Dr. Helen Robertshaw and Nurse Manager Sharon Gallagher recently returned from an unforgettable week at the Aesthetic & Anti-Ageing Medicine World Congress (AMWC) in Dubai — one of the leading international conferences in the field of aesthetic and regenerative medicine.
The event brought together some of the most innovative minds in skincare, dermatology, and aesthetic science from across the globe. For Dr. Helen and Sharon, it was an incredible opportunity to learn, connect, and bring back fresh insights for our patients here at Southface Dermatolgy Clinic.
About the AMWC Conference in Dubai
The Aesthetic & Anti-Ageing Medicine World Congress (AMWC) is recognised globally as one of the most influential gatherings for aesthetic, anti-ageing, and regenerative medicine professionals. Established over two decades ago, AMWC serves as a premier platform for clinicians and researchers to exchange the latest advancements, evidence-based insights, and innovative treatment techniques.
The Dubai edition of the conference attracts delegates from across the Middle East, Europe, and beyond — including dermatologists, cosmetic doctors, surgeons, and thought leaders in the aesthetics industry.
Across several days, the event features expert-led lectures, live demonstrations, and workshops covering:
- Advances in non-surgical facial rejuvenation and injectable techniques
- The science of skin health and regeneration
- The hormonal and metabolic influences on skin ageing
- Innovations in energy-based technologies, such as lasers, radiofrequency, and ultrasound
- Patient safety, ethics, and best practice in aesthetic medicine
The conference also hosts a large exhibition showcasing the most cutting-edge skincare products, devices, and technologies — offering a glimpse into the future of the aesthetics field.
For clinicians like Dr. Helen Robertshaw and Sharon Gallagher, attending AMWC is an invaluable opportunity to remain at the forefront of aesthetic innovation, ensuring that Southface Dermatology Clinic continues to deliver treatments guided by science, safety, and exceptional care.
A Week of Learning and Inspiration
Highlights of this year’s conference included sessions exploring the hormonal influences on skin health, particularly during perimenopause and menopause — a key focus for Dr. Helen’s ongoing work in holistic skin management. The team also gained valuable insights into the latest advances in anti-ageing treatments, regenerative procedures, and evidence-based skincare innovations.
Exciting News for Southface

We’re thrilled to announce that a brand-new device will soon be arriving at Southface Dermatology Clinic — designed to enhance our treatment results and patient experience even further. Keep an eye on our channels for the official reveal.
Connecting with Industry Leaders
The conference also offered the chance to reconnect with friends and colleagues from across the aesthetics community, including Sam Keene from Cutera and Dr. Dev Patel from Perfect Skin Solutions, Portsmouth. It’s always a pleasure to share ideas and celebrate the continued progress of the aesthetics industry together.
Looking Ahead
After an inspiring week of learning, innovation, and collaboration, Dr. Helen and Sharon are already looking forward to next year’s AMWC Conference — and to bringing even more advanced, evidence-based treatments to our patients.
