A team of local experts will join our experienced international guests to help make the 21st Advanced Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Workshop a successful event once again.
Our aim is to educate in the many aspects of the ageing face and to raise the standards of management for the betterment of our specialty and hence to improve patient outcomes.

It will include didactic teaching, video presentations of surgical procedures and panels for discussion. Interaction of all participants with our guests will be encouraged.
We encourage you to not only support this meeting, which has become entrenched in our yearly plastic surgery calendar, but also to become involved with all participants to help us make this a great meeting to the mutual benefit of all plastic surgeons, plastic surgery trainees, dedicated plastic surgery nurses and the industry.
