Upcoming clinical education events at the Royal Society of Medicine

Healthcare professionals are invited to take part in two specialist educational events taking place at the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) this September, covering the latest developments in aesthetic medicine and contact dermatitis.

RSM Aesthetics Congress XIV to Explore the Future of Aesthetic Medicine
Taking place on Friday 4 September 2026, the RSM Aesthetics Congress XIV will bring together leading experts from across the field of aesthetic medicine and surgery to discuss some of the most important developments shaping clinical practice today.

This year’s programme will focus on topics including regenerative aesthetics, artificial intelligence, patient safety and clinical decision-making. Through a combination of keynote presentations, panel discussions and real-world case studies, delegates will gain insight into emerging technologies, complication management, ethics and evidence-based approaches to patient care.

Designed for consultants, GPs, SAS doctors, dentists and aesthetic practitioners, the congress offers valuable learning opportunities for both experienced clinicians and those looking to strengthen their understanding of modern aesthetic medicine and surgery. Find out more.

Specialist Contact Dermatitis Training for Resident Doctors

Specialist Contact Dermatitis Training for Resident Doctors
Later in the month, on Thursday 17 September 2026, the RSM Dermatology Section, in partnership with the British Society for Cutaneous Allergy (BSCA), will host a dedicated Contact Dermatitis Training Course for Resident Doctors.

The one-day, in-person event marks the return of the well-regarded Manchester Clinical Course and is currently the only UK course specifically designed for resident doctors seeking comprehensive training in contact dermatitis and patch testing.

The programme combines expert-led lectures, interactive discussions and practical workshops, providing delegates with hands-on experience and guidance from experienced clinicians. Attendees will develop the knowledge and confidence needed to perform and interpret patch testing in everyday clinical practice.

Both events reflect the RSM’s ongoing commitment to supporting professional development and providing clinicians with access to the latest knowledge, skills and best practice across healthcare specialties. Find out more.
