RSM recognises Aesthetic medicine

The Council for the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) is establishing a new Section for Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery this month





The Section will be led by its first President, Consultant Dermatologist, Dr Christopher Rowland Payne, and will adopt a ‘show not tell’ approach, promoting evidence-based best practice to improve outcomes for patients. In order to elevate professional standards and safety across the field, they will provide a forum for scientific debate alongside regular educational events.

Dr Rowland Payne said: “Aesthetic medicine and surgery are multi-disciplinary areas, and have for decades worked alongside other branches of medicine. As a result, this new Section will be pooling expertise and will embrace not only dermatologists, but surgeons, physicians, dentists and other GMC-registered doctors—all of whom have an interest in this growing area.”

Professor Gillian Leng CBE, President of the RSM added: “This is an important and growing medical field, and one that deserves to be recognised in its own right. The new Section will be drawing on the support of the world’s leading experts. By sharing learning and best practice, it will support the Society’s educational mission of better healthcare for better lives.”
