PREMIERE SUMMARY VENUS REPORTS 2026

On September 19, 2026, a press conference was held at the InterContinental Hotel in Warsaw during the IADE Energy Congress, celebrating the launch of three Venus Academy reports. The meeting focused on patient safety, the competencies of those performing procedures, and accountability for the entire care process—from qualification to handling complications.

The conference’s most important message: quality in aesthetic medicine should be assessed based on specific criteria. A facility’s recognition, price, or photos of its results are not sufficient to assess its readiness to provide safe patient care.

The presented publications show three complementary perspectives:

  • The “Venus 2026 Quality Standard” proposes criteria for assessing the performance of facilities and organizes the importance of scientific evidence regarding preparations and devices.

  • “Who can perform aesthetic and restorative medicine procedures?” analyzes the competencies of the practitioners and emphasizes the importance of preparing for a specific procedure and treating its complications.

  • “Symmetry: The Rights and Obligations of the Aesthetic Medicine Patient” discusses informed decision-making, mutual responsibility, and the physician’s right to refuse a procedure.

For physicians, clinic managers, manufacturers, and distributors, the reports provide a common point of reference for discussing industry standards. They can be used to review care organization, plan training, and improve patient communication. They present expert recommendations—they do not establish new regulations or establish rankings for clinics.

The conference was an opportunity to present these studies and to invite the community to a substantive discussion on the proposed quality criteria.
