ADLAS 2026

poster

Twenty years after its inaugural meeting in 2006, ADLAS warmly invites you to the shores of Penang, Malaysia, for Myth, Fact & Fiction 2026, to be held May 29–31.

ADLAS remains committed to bringing together Asian dermatologists with a special interest in lasers and dermatologic surgery to exchange ideas, share experiences, and present data relevant to our region. While we invite select speakers from the West to introduce emerging technologies, the true strength of ADLAS lies in the rich sharing of personal experiences among Asian dermatologists.

True to tradition, ADLAS avoids rigid schedules and formal attires, allowing participants time to explore the island or unwind with a relaxing massage at the Spa. The Shangri-La Rasa Sayang, Penang, a charming tropical retreat, offers an idyllic backdrop of sun, sea, and shore typical of ADLAS meetings.

On behalf of the ADLAS Board of Directors - Prof. Niwat Polnikorn, Dr. Joyce Lim, Dr. Nancy Garcia-Tan, and Dr. Gangaram Hemandas - I look forward to welcoming you to Penang for the ADLAS Meeting of Minds, May 29–31, 2026.

Best regards,
Prof. Goh Chee Leok
Chair, Asian Dermatologic Laser & Surgery (ADLAS)
