JoongAng Ilbo · 2026-05-12

The '52nd Spring International Conference and Advanced Aesthetic Medical Device Fair' hosted by the Korean Association of Laser, Dermatology and Hair Science (hereinafter referred to as KALDAT) successfully concluded on May 3 at Coex Hall C in Seoul. The conference, attended by KALDAT President Park Min-soo (Gangnam View Best Clinic Lead Director) and other officials, served as a platform for experiencing the latest trends in aesthetic medicine.

In particular, this conference focused on presenting practical clinical strategies that can be immediately applied to actual clinical settings, with 'Therapeutic Strategy for Aesthetic Medicine' as its main theme. Despite being held during the Golden Week holiday in May, a large number of 5,035 attendees visited the site, demonstrating that the KALDAT conference has established itself as a must-attend event in the field of aesthetic medicine.

This year's event received positive reviews for its three-dimensional structure, where academic lectures and the fair created synergy. NES (Nearby Expert Station) areas set up throughout the venue offered real-time Q&A, live talks, and sharing of vivid procedure know-how videos, significantly enhancing attendees' clinical understanding.

Among these, the 'Lifting Panel Discussion' session garnered significant attention. Experts in surgery, EBD, anatomy, and Mint Thread Lift gathered in one place to discuss the 'essence of lifting,' providing diverse perspectives. Encouraged by this enthusiastic response, KALDAT plans to make this a regular program for every conference. In addition, the association's commitment to its social and educational responsibilities was also highlighted through customized educational sessions for clinic staff and students majoring in aesthetics.

At the fair, the non-face-to-face online application system for the 'KALDAT Purple Card,' which significantly improved accessibility and financial convenience for clinic owners, was unveiled, attracting the attention of attendees.

An official from the association stated, "This spring conference was more than just a transfer of knowledge; it was a place for medical professionals and the industry to communicate and jointly envision the present and future of aesthetic medicine." They added, "KALDAT will continue to provide practical assistance to clinical settings and lead a virtuous cycle ecosystem where academics and industry converge."
