Description:
The 2019 Annual Scientific Meeting will take place January 31 – February 2 in Orlando, Florida, at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort. Hundreds of cosmetic surgery professionals and supporters will gather for enlightening keynote presentations and ground-breaking didactic sessions on the latest techniques and procedures in cosmetic surgery.

The theme “Making a Difference” will be highlighted in our educational sessions. Surgeons will inspire attendees to make a difference in their own communities and highlight the great work being done to change lives. The theme can also imply the difference that can be made in a patient’s life through cosmetic surgery; the idea that working from the outside in can truly impact someone’s life for the better.

Live patient demos, panel discussions on complications, and high impact sessions on all cosmetic-related topics will be addressed.
