APAN and The Australasian Society of Cosmetic Dermatology establish a strategic alliance

When it comes to the skin, cosmetic dermatologists are required to undertake four years full-time tertiary study to graduate as dermatology specialists. 

As the representative body of skin and age-management professionals APAN recognises the importance of a professional alliance with cosmetic dermatology. 

As such, we have established a formal professional alliance with the Australasian Society of Cosmetic Dermatology (ASCD).

As part of that alliance, APAN will have access to ASCD Journals as well as updates on their educational programs and events. ASCD produces three journals per year.

Additionally, APAN members can also directly access copies of ASCD journals by signing up on the ASCD website here

Each issue is dedicated to a specific topic. 

The 6^th Edition is in progress and will be due for release in early November. It will comprehensively cover scarring, including acne scarring.

The following events will also be available for attendance to APAN members.
