So many milestones to cherish and celebrate at the @bcwomensfdn annual Illuminations Luncheon this past Friday!

It was a full-circle moment for Dr. Li who served as emcee for the Research Spotlight section, and met the inaugural recipient of her scholarship who presented their scholarly work on stage.

It was incredible to hear a live announcement made by BC Minister of Health Josie Osborne that March of each year is declared Women’s Health Research Month.

It was inspiring to hear media and fashion icon @thejeannebeker share how she overcomes life challenges and trail-blaze, quoting ancient philosopher Confucius, “Wherever you go, go with all your heart” - how she and we should journey life.

It was exhilarating to be in the room raising a record-breaking $620,000 in less than half hour, rallied by the ever effervescent auctioneer and public personality @fredabouttown.

Finally, it was a reflection of how far the Women’s Health Research Institute has come under the leadership of @drloribrotto, who completed two terms at its helm, with the luncheon as a triumphant farewell.

Congratulations and thank you, @callywesson_ and the entire team of the @bcwomensfdn - to many more!

Dr. Li is honoured to serve as Guest Editor for the latest issue of the Chronicle of Cosmetic Medicine + Surgery, a national medical magazine for dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and cosmetic physicians across the country.

An excerpt from her commentary:

“What’s tried and true, revitalized.

In dermatology, new does not always mean more effective or a better choice for patients. Physicians can strategically apply traditional, well understood treatment strategies to long-standing cosmetic concerns….it is exciting to see the creative synergy by merging innovation with practicality...”

There is a myriad of established tools that can be safe and effective in aesthetic medicine, but it is the execution, precision and artistry that deliver results for our patients.
