What Makes MSS the Place to Be
Looking back, MSS 25 set a new standard in the industry, drawing more than 2,000 passionate clinicians, business owners and thought leaders to the Wynn for a weekend that underscored a unified response to industry challenges, public scrutiny and the push for higher standards.
The show opened with pre-conference deep dives, including the renowned Medical Spa Boot Camp, a Mergers & Acquisitions Summit, and a hands-on ultrasound workshop headlined by Dr. Steven F. Weiner. Energy-based device demonstrations by Loretta Zanetti, ARNP, and Stephen Ellis, MD, combined clinical innovation with practical takeaways. Meanwhile, Erika Barry's Social Media Mastery session and delivered must-have skills on growing an authentic online presence. Thursday brought AmSpa Members together for the breezy, Tulum-esque Members Reception, where old friends reunited and new connections were made, before celebrating the exclusive U.S. launch party of Acclaro Medical's AuraLux cold fiber laser.
AmSpa founder Alex Thiersch, JD, centered the General Session on industry unity, compliance and raising the bar for safety. That message resonated throughout intensive breakout tracks on biohacking, regenerative medicine, marketing, legal essentials and patient experience. Fascinating panels such as "Dangerous Practices, Devastating Consequences" brought legal experts Bradford Adatto, JD, and Michael Byrd, JD, to the stage, translating policy changes and regulatory risks into actionable advice.
The keynote sessions saw George Baxter-Holder, DNP, ARNP, CANS, and Kyle Scheele share powerful stories of resilience, creativity and leadership. Their messages, combined with practical sessions on sexual wellness, cultural competence and inclusive care from innovators such as Michelle Henry, MD, solidified MSS as the place where important conversations took place. The Expo Hall teemed with 212 vendors, each bringing the latest in medical devices, skin care science, software and services, giving attendees tangible tools to drive their businesses forward.
Social moments, such as the unforgettable Opening Night Party and Sunset Sips reception on the Cristal Terrace, cultivated deep comradery. Whether forging new business partnerships, sharing patient safety stories or simply celebrating collective achievements, MSS showcased why medical aesthetics thrives on both education and authentic human connection.
