The REACH International Conference for Regenerative Medicine (REACH '26) — the annual event of the REACH Academy — takes place at The Ritz-Carlton, Jeddah, from 8–10 October 2026, under the theme "From Jeddah to the World".
Described by the organisers as the largest gathering of its kind worldwide in dermatology, hair and aesthetics, the conference hosts more than 1,000 physicians from Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states and around the world, alongside international speakers from Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Arab world. It is accredited by the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties for 17 CME hours.
Scientific focus
The meeting centres on a new generation of treatments that stimulate the body's own ability to regenerate hair and skin from within, with sessions on the latest evidence-based therapies — including a dedicated session on the regulations adopted in Saudi Arabia to ensure safe practice.
Partnerships
The event is supported by the Saudi Society of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery and the Saudi Scientific Association of Plastic Surgery and Burns, and holds a scientific partnership with the International Cosmetic Congress and Exhibition (ICCE) in Cairo. International medical societies from Europe and Asia are expected to sign partnership agreements on a single platform in Jeddah, alongside the launch of a global scientific initiative in regenerative medicine from Saudi Arabia.
Who should attend
Dermatologists, plastic and aesthetic surgeons, aesthetic physicians, trichologists and other practitioners interested in regenerative approaches to skin and hair. Registration details are available through the REACH Academy channels; the detailed programme and faculty list are published by the organisers.
