Let’s talk about FACE 2025 because, year after year, this conference and exhibition is well worth your time! Not to mention, it is also recognised as one of the UK’s most advanced scientific Aesthetic Medicine Conferences.
And this year was no different. Attendees were blown away as the FACE Conference and Exhibition took over the Business Design Centre in London on the 26th and 27th of June 2025. However, we completely understand that before committing to FACE 2026’s agenda, you may want to know more about what this event had in store this year. That’s exactly why we were there.
So, join us and let’s do just that. Let’s learn a lot (if not a ton) more about this sought-after, and locally-celebrated UK event.
What FACE 2025 Is All About
FACE is short for Facial Aesthetic Conference and Exhibition. Founded in the early 2000s, this glorious and uber-educational event has been running strong for over 20 years. That, in itself, is a true testament to its popularity, with attendees flocking through its doors each year, always wanting more.
But what is FACE all about? The FACE event is all about aesthetic treatments and technologies. But, not just any treatments and technologies. We are talking about the latest, greatest, and most progressive treatments out there. This includes equipment and advanced aesthetic techniques that can help elevate your skills in the medical aesthetics industry.
For two solid days, visitors can immerse themselves in pure awesomeness. Think forward-thinking and revolutionary presentations, live demonstrations, hands-on workshops, and an exhibition hall packed with incredible (and scientifically backed-up) innovations in aesthetic medicine.
So, that begs the question, is FACE for you? If you are a dermatologist, aesthetician, clinic owner, doctor, dental surgeon, cosmetic dentist, plastic surgeon, or skincare specialist, then it is a resounding yes!

It’s a world-class event with renowned dermatologists and exhibitors gathered under one roof. It’s the best platform for learning and business opportunities—highly recommended.
FACE is a great conference to attend because you can learn from experts from all over, enhancing your knowledge and your business while connecting with like-minded individuals.
Definitely tailored for those working in the industry. I found the regenerative hair agenda and skincare presentations very helpful.
There were plenty of learning opportunities, the venue was well-utilised, and the FACE staff were very friendly. Hats off to Christophe and the team!

Brand New On The Agenda
If you attended FACE 2024, FACE 2023, or even FACE 2017, you may have felt like you had seen it all before—then think again! FACE 2025 flaunted a thoughtfully redesigned programme, providing greater accessibility to the whole aesthetics community.
The congress was open to MD delegates of all experience levels. With over 150 plenary sessions spread across 4 main agendas, FACE covered 8 of the most popular topics in aesthetics and anti-ageing medicine across 5 conference rooms. Meaning, pretty much all attendees had the chance to gain valuable insights, share experiences, and connect with leading experts in the field. This provided them the golden opportunity to stay ahead of the curve, learn from the industry’s top experts, and offer their patients nothing short of progressive and excellent care.
FACE In A Nutshell
This leading UK event had the potential to transform attendees’ businesses for the better.
With educational content, conferences, and opportunities to learn from and connect with people in the aesthetics community, FACE 2025 proved to be a weekend to remember.
Delegates left inspired, equipped with new knowledge, and motivated to apply fresh ideas in their own practices. The only question remaining is, will we see you at FACE 2026 next year? We sure hope so!
