Medical congresses
Medical congresses are not trade shows for salon professionals: the programme is scientific, and the organiser sets the conditions for attendance. We list one of them so that it is not confused with the trade shows. If you run a salon or spa, check the conditions before you travel.
| Congress | Dates | City and venue | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dubai Derma (Dubai World Dermatology and Laser Conference and Exhibition) | 6–8 April 2027, Tuesday to Thursday | Dubai. Dubai World Trade Centre | Pre-conference courses are announced for 3–6 April |
For AMWC Dubai we could not confirm 2027 dates on 11 November 2026: the organiser's site still showed the 2026 edition. Check the dates directly with the organiser.
How to prepare for a visit
- Check dates and opening hours on the official website. Do it before you book travel and a hotel: the programme can change.
- Check the conditions for attendance. Registration, tickets and who is admitted are set out on each organiser's website.
- Choose the stands in advance. The exhibitor list is on the show's website: this calendar lists events, not exhibitors.
- Write your questions down in advance. The same questions to every seller make the answers comparable.
- Take the documents with you. Compare the data sheet, the warranty terms and the written offer calmly after the show.
What to ask at the stand of a hair removal device
Time at a stand is short, and a demonstration lasts only a few minutes. Six questions help to compare the offers of different sellers.
- Which technology and which wavelengths. How to read the answer is explained in the guide to choosing a professional IPL machine for a salon.
- Who the manufacturer is and who is selling. The manufacturer itself, an official representative or a dealer. The seven questions on this are in the article How to check a hair removal device seller.
- How many pulses the handpiece lasts and where it is replaced.
- Who gives the warranty and what it covers.
- Where the service centre is and how a repair works.
- Who trains the specialist and which document is issued on completion.
The same questions to every seller: only then can the answers be compared.
The full list of criteria is in the article How to choose a hair removal device for a salon.
