The European Congress on Anti-Aging & Aesthetic Medicine (ECAAAM) is proud to welcome the support of the University of Mainz for its 2nd annual event (15th - 17th October, Mainz, Mainz Congress Centre). ECAAAM is a cutting edge congress that provides medical professionals, scientists and industry personnel with the training and education they need to treat age-related dysfunctions, disorders and diseases.

The support from the University demonstrates that ECAAAM is a valuable event in the European medical calendar, and illustrates the importance of this medical speciality to treat the effects of aging via non invasive and safe invasive techniques.

The University of Mainz Medical Center and the Faculty of Medicine of The Johannes Gutenberg University warmly welcomes the speakers, participants and experts in the field that convene in Mainz for ECAAAM. As the world's population is progressively aging, anti-aging medicine is an area of increasing medical need. Aesthetic medicine is one of the fastest growing areas of medicine and accommodates substantial demand by the public in the developed world. Being highly innovative, a large body of new research results and subsequent therapeutic procedures is published every year. Professor Dr Grabbe, Director, Dermatological Clinic of the University Hospital commented "This conference will contribute to the exchange of ideas, new research results, innovative therapeutic procedures and medical information on this exciting field".

In addition ECAAAM has also released its scientific programme that will take place over the 3 days. ECAAAM's international scientific committee has carefully selected the most relevant topics and expert speakers to share their latest medical research and medical practices. Top speakers and topics are, to name a few:

- Gerhard Sattler - Aesthetic dermatologic surgery
- Stephan Grabbe, - Cutaneous inflammation - good or bad for skin ageing
