Endorsed by the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the New Zealand Association of Plastic Surgeons (NZAPS), and approved by the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS), the plastic surgeons of The Melbourne Institute of Plastic Surgery have great pleasure in inviting you to attend the 25th Advanced Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Workshop (AAPSW) to be held at the Crown Conference Centre from 17th – 18th February 2023.
The 2023 workshop will focus on ‘The Art of Facial Aesthetic Surgery’. In keeping with gaining the most from the visit of our two invited international guests, we will also feature other topics of aesthetic interest including eyelids, face and neck surgery, fat grafting and augmentation and non surgical.
The 2023 workshop will include didactic teaching, video presentations of topical surgical procedures along with discussion panels and audience Q&A opportunities. A host of talented local experts will also be included in the program to ensure that the 25th AAPSW provides another year of strong educational content to all attending.
We wish to raise the standards of management for the betterment of the specialty and hence to improve patient outcomes, as well as to raise the bar in an already high standard plastic surgery community.
We encourage you to not only support this meeting, which has become a permanent highlight in our yearly plastic surgery calendar, but to also become involved with your fellow attendees to help us continue to make this a valuable meeting to the great benefit of all plastic surgeons, plastic surgery trainees, dedicated plastic surgery nurses and the industry sponsors involved.
As has become tradition, the workshop is once again being held at the Crown Conference Centre in Melbourne, Australia. The Crown complex is a landmark of this remarkable city and located at the heart of the action in Melbourne’s vibrant Southbank entertainment precinct. The Conference centre sits adjacent to the Crown Entertainment Complex, Promenade, Metropol and Crown Towers hotels, is only a short walk to the CBD and only moments from the city’s world renowned arts and sporting precincts.
