5th International Keloid Symposium
6 Jun 2025
The 5th International Keloid Symposium will be held on 6-8 June 2025 in Shanghai, China.
On behalf of the Keloid Research Foundation (KRF), and in collaboration with Drs. Xiaoli Wu and Wei Liu of the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People’s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, you are invited to join the KRF at the 5th International Keloid Symposium to be held in Shanghai, China, on June 6th, 7th, and 8th, 2025.
This symposium marks the return of the event to China after the successful 2019 meeting in Beijing. With a population of over 1.4 billion, China treats a significant number of keloid cases annually using a variety of therapeutic techniques, including some novel and unique methods that are widely practiced in the country. As a nation with a rich history, Traditional Chinese Medicine has also played an important role in keloid treatment, often complementing Western medical approaches such as intralesional injections, cryotherapy, surgery, and radiotherapy to enhance therapeutic outcomes. This unique integration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine, which is also likely practiced in other Asian countries, will be presented and discussed at the symposium.
Date: 6-8 June 2025
Location: Shanghai, China
