Dubai, United Arab Emirates, March 2024- The 23rd edition of the Dubai World Dermatology and Laser Conference and Exhibition, “Dubai Derma 2024,” successfully concluded, marking the largest scientific conference and exhibition for dermatology and cosmetic procedures worldwide, with a total deal value of 2.4 billion dirhams.
Over three days, the Dubai Derma Conference and Exhibition reinforced the UAE’s position as a regional and global hub for medical and cosmetic treatment, thanks to high-quality healthcare, short waiting periods, and competitive pricing. The United Arab Emirates has become an ideal destination for patients seeking treatment abroad, and this year’s deals underscore the significant importance of the global and local skincare and beauty care sector. The conference further solidified Dubai’s global status as a crucial hub for medical gatherings, providing a platform for meetings, scientific knowledge exchange, deal-making, and adopting cutting-edge technologies, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence that shapes the future of dermatology and cosmetic medicine.
Dr. Hassan Galadari, Head of the Scientific Committee for Dubai Derma, stated: “Dubai Derma, as usual, continues to bring novelty, be it through new scientific topics or the introduction of modern devices. The highlight this year was the exclusive launch of a skin renewal device which was revealed recently in the United States, now available at Dubai Derma.”
Dubai Derma offers a comprehensive scientific experience, encouraging recent medical graduates and students to stay abreast of the latest developments in the field. The conference hosted a scientific competition for students, providing them with the opportunity to engage in practical training through surgical workshops.
Moreover, Dubai Derma highlights cutting-edge treatments in dermatology and cosmetic medicine, such as exosomes. Exosomes, used to activate skin cells, are employed in treating conditions like hair thinning and excessive hair loss. They are regenerative cells capable of healing and repairing tissues, offering a safe and effective alternative to traditional plasma therapy. Discussions include the sources and effects of exosomes, along with advancements in plasma therapy.
