ILAMED, India’s leading institute for aesthetic medicine, cosmetology and healthcare education has accelerated its international expansion with the launch of centres in Nairobi (Kenya), Addis Ababa (Ethiopia) and Bangkok (Thailand). The expansion marks a significant milestone in the institute’s vision of building a global network for specialized healthcare training across emerging markets. The institute is now preparing to launch its next overseas centre in Cairo (Egypt) in September 2026.
ILAMED commenced its international journey in February 2026 with the launch of its Nairobi centre, followed by Addis Ababa in May 2026. Building on this momentum, the organization has now established its presence in Bangkok in June 2026, further extending its reach into Southeast Asia. The upcoming Cairo centre is expected to significantly strengthen ILAMED’s presence across the African continent, one of the fastest-growing regions for healthcare investment and medical education.
The expansion marks a significant milestone in ILAMED’s vision of creating a globally connected network for aesthetic medicine, cosmetology, and advanced healthcare training while addressing the growing demand for skilled professionals and quality healthcare education across emerging markets.
Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Ajay Rana, Founder and Director of ILAMED said, “Our international expansion reflects ILAMED’s commitment to making world-class aesthetic medicine education and training accessible to healthcare professionals across the globe. Africa, in particular, presents tremendous opportunities due to its growing healthcare infrastructure, increasing demand for specialized medical services, and rising interest in aesthetic medicine. The successful response we have received in Nairobi and Addis Ababa has reinforced our confidence in the region’s potential. With Bangkok now operational and Cairo on the horizon, we are steadily building a strong international ecosystem that empowers medical professionals with globally recognized education, advanced clinical skills, and industry-leading expertise.”
Africa continues to emerge as a strategic market for healthcare and medical education, driven by rapid urbanization, expanding healthcare investments, increasing awareness of aesthetic procedures, and a growing need for specialized training. Through its presence in key African cities, ILAMED aims to bridge skill gaps by providing internationally accredited programs, hands-on clinical exposure, and access to global best practices in aesthetic medicine and cosmetology.
The expansion into Bangkok further reinforces ILAMED’s ambition to establish a strong presence across major international healthcare hubs, facilitating cross-border collaborations, knowledge exchange, faculty development, and global networking opportunities for medical professionals.
With additional international markets currently under evaluation, ILAMED remains committed to advancing medical education globally while contributing to India’s growing reputation as a leader in healthcare innovation, medical expertise, and professional training.
Over the years, ILAMED has earned recognition as one of India’s premier institutes for aesthetic medicine education, offering specialized programs in cosmetology, aesthetic medicine, trichology, hair transplantation, anti-aging medicine, lasers, and advanced cosmetic procedures.
