“Every year, the lectures are on different topics, and I love that the format is short to allow for lots of discussion, which I always learn so much from,” said past attendee Jacqueline Watchmaker, MD.

For nearly 30 years, Controversies & Conversations has provided a lively discussion forum as a unique place to learn, share and discuss controversial topics in laser and cosmetic surgery in a collegial atmosphere with a large group of experts offering different perspectives. Its unique format capitalizes on the peer learning experience in an unbiased forum:

1. Controversial issues are quickly presented at the start of each discussion.
2. Faculty members present their views.
3. An open, vigorous discussion is led by the Course Directors, in which both the faculty and attendees are encouraged to challenge each other’s opinions in lively dialogue.

“This most enjoyable meeting is organized with such care and attention to detail,” said 2021 speaker Macrene Alexiades, MD, PhD. “All the talks were so interesting, and the venue was excellent."
