Hugel announced on the 3rd that from October 29 to 31, the company hosted “H.E.L.F.: Aesthetic Excellence Summit (AES) 2025,” inviting more than 20 medical professionals from the United States, Canada, and Australia. AES, a sub-program of the Hugel Global Symposium H.E.L.F. (Hugel Expert Leader’s Forum), is a hands-on seminar specifically designed for overseas healthcare professionals (HCPs).

The program aims to cultivate key academic experts in each country and is structured around a comprehensive curriculum that includes theoretical lectures, live demonstrations, and practical hands-on training.

On the first day of the event, participants attended lectures and hands-on sessions focused on anatomical understanding.

Dr. Han Jeong Lee of ATOP Plastic Surgery presented a theoretical lecture and live demonstration on skin quality improvement techniques, while Dr. Jaewoo Kim and Dr. Wongyu Hong of Class One Clinic showcased natural K-Aesthetic treatment techniques through both lectures and live demos.

On the final day, the program concluded with a discussion session involving global medical professionals and members of Hugel’s Quality Division, Marketing Division, and Medical Affairs Department.
