Why Young Lives vs Cancer?

When we chose the charity for this year’s IAAFA Charity Ball, we wanted to support an organisation making a real difference to young people and their families at one of the most difficult times in their lives.

Young Lives vs Cancer provides specialist support that goes far beyond medical treatment, from emotional and practical support to financial help and accommodation close to treatment centres.

Because cancer can affect every part of a young person’s life, and their whole family.

In aesthetics, knowing when not to proceed can be just as important as knowing how to treat.

Join Australian-registered psychologist Andrea (Andy) Sarmonikas for a thought-provoking exploration of psychological fitness, ethical judgement and the pressures that can influence clinical decision-making.

From commercial incentives and professional intuition to role suitability, screening and multidisciplinary consultation, Andy will examine how clinicians can make more informed, ethical decisions — even when the pressure to say “yes” is strong.
An essential session for anyone who believes exceptional aesthetic practice begins with protecting both patients and professionals. 🌿
