The Australian team joined therapists from across the world at KL symposium.
Over 100 Australian Dermalogica skin therapists have returned from what was described as an “absolutely incredible” symposium in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Held last week, The Power of One Symposium was an opportunity for the extended Dermalogica team to gain insight from some of the most influential professionals in the skin care industry. The symposium covered the latest cosmeceutical ingredients and treatments in the medical setting as well as offering business advice for salon owners.
The conference officially opened with a poolside cocktail party on the evening of Sunday 9th June. The following day, the Malaysian hosts took the Australian team on an elaborate tour of all the must-see landmarks including the National Mosque, the King’s Palace and Thean Hou Temple.
The guest speaker line-up included the inspiring CEO and founder of Dermalogica, Jane Wurwand, vice president of research and development, Dr Diana Howard and education manager of Australia, Asia and New Zealand, Emma Hobson.
To celebrate a successful symposium, the Malaysian team hosted a Gala dinner for all international guests, including attendees from New Zealand, Thailand, Vietnam and the UAE. Traditional Malay drum musicians entertained throughout the eight-course banquet, and a live band had everyone on the dance floor into the evening.
The professional symposium proved the perfect platform for skin therapists from around the world to come together and share experiences, network, learn from each other and have a memorable time in an exciting city. Sally Cantwell, Endota Group, said of the experience: “I feel a stronger connection to the brand and related to many of the speakers on a personal and professional level. I have much to take back to my business and my team. What a memorable experience.”
The Australian team experienced five-star luxury throughout their stay, with accommodation and the conference being held at the Grand Hyatt Kuala Lumpur. Located in the city centre, the hotel was the ideal location to experience the Asian cyber-city: historic temples and mosques rubbing shoulders with space-age towers and world class shopping malls.
