First and foremost, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the members who have taken the time to participate in this congress despite your busy schedules. On a personal note, it is profoundly meaningful for me to take on this significant role as a senior committee member, reflecting on over a decade of involvement with this society.
In preparing for this congress, we faced numerous challenges and felt the weight of responsibility as we sought to integrate the latest trends and meet our members' expectations. Thanks to the dedication and enthusiasm of Demire’s talented and dynamic committee members, we successfully planned this event. Moreover, this congress holds special significance as it marks Chairman Rah Gong Chan’s last congress, deepening our sense of duty and commitment to its preparation.
The slogan, "ASLS, Where Innovation Meets Inspiration," for our congress is more than just a phrase—it reflects the future direction and aspirations of ASLS. As the new name of the Aesthetic Surgery & Laser Society in its journey toward globalization, ASLS symbolizes our commitment to leading innovation in aesthetic medicine and expanding our presence in the global medical community. The inclusion of the word “Inspiration” reflects our dedication to providing practical support and motivation to our members, who actively engage in every event. This slogan encapsulates our philosophy and vision: to create a platform where innovation and inspiration converge, driving progress in aesthetic medicine and transcending mere knowledge-sharing.
The medical industry is currently navigating a particularly challenging period. We deeply empathize with the struggles of our members, who have steadfastly maintained their practices amidst ongoing conflicts between the medical profession and government, as well as the political turbulence surrounding the healthcare field. Despite these adversities, we have organized this congress with the hope that it provides even a small measure of support to our members who continue to persevere. To this end, we have endeavored to include academic content that offers practical assistance, along with tips that can be directly applied to daily medical practice.
We are confident that our programs will not only deliver a profound sense of fulfillment through academic knowledge but also offer a wealth of practical information to enhance your daily medical practice. Each session features top-tier speakers who will share the latest trends and innovative expertise in aesthetic medicine. Furthermore, we hope this congress serves as a platform for exchanging new ideas, fostering collaboration, and building connections that go beyond academic discussions.
Lastly, we sincerely thank all our members for their unwavering support and deep affection for our society. We hope this congress meets your expectations and provides meaningful encouragement to help overcome the challenges in the medical field. We wish you health, happiness, and continued success in your professional endeavors, and we kindly ask for your ongoing interest and support for our society.
Thank you.
