IAFA Aesthetic Symposium 2026 Miami Beach

The 14th Annual IAFA Aesthetic Symposium, run by the International Academy of Facial Aesthetics (IAFA), takes place on 6 and 7 November 2026 at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, Florida. The organiser describes a reimagined format for 2026: each day is a full conference experience from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, with expert-led lectures, live demonstrations and networking over breakfast and lunch.

Friday 6 November covers safety, clinical protocols and advanced techniques, including complication management and vascular occlusion recognition, upper third protocols (forehead, temples and periorbital areas) and lower face and neck protocols (lips, chin, jawline and neck). Breakfast with exhibitors starts at 7:00 AM.

Attendees can add optional small-group hands-on workshops from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, including cadaver dissection for facial injectables with ultrasound, combination therapy, multi-level neurotoxins and PLLA (Sculptra) mastery. A group room rate at the Fontainebleau is available through the organiser.

This is a clinical education event for aesthetic practitioners. Registration asks for the attendee's professional degree. Check the IAFA website for the full schedule, faculty and current registration options.
