World Congress on Facial Plastic Surgery - 7th IFFPSS Congress
It's time to register! Rome, Italy, May 9-12, 2012
Dear colleague,
The much-anticipated 7th International Congress of the International Federation of Facial Plastic Surgery Societies "Nose & Face World 2012" will be held in Rome, the Eternal City, from the 9th to the 12th of May 2012. Distinguished members and a host of acclaimed speakers from around the world have already registered for a meeting that promises to provide a platform for a stimulating exchange of ideas and experiences from our honoured colleagues and teachers.
The wide range of topics covered by this Congress includes current trends from rhinoplasty, ageing face surgery, injectables, lasers, fat grafting, non-ablative resurfacing, implantology, otoplasty, nasal and facial reconstruction, endoscopic sinus and skull base surgery, practice management and medico-legal issues. This Conference is targeted specifically at facial plastic surgeons at all levels of expertise from diverse backgrounds such as general plastic surgery, otorhinolaryngology, maxillofacial surgery, oculoplastic and dermatological surgery.
In order to provide the guests with the maximal amount of exposure and create the opportunity for selective attendance, the Congress will consist of parallel sessions. A panel of experts will debate controversial issues thereby exposing the audience to widely divergent views on problematic areas. This format will enable the participants to gain insight into the most difficult tasks that surgeons encounter in their daily activities. Cognisant of the unique nature of the problems posed by each patient, presentations on case-based issues will display a wide spectrum of common and rare disorders. The Kaleidoscope section of the Congress will cover contemporary medico-legal issues, ethical, psychological, and mercantile aspects of facial plastic surgery. As evidence-based medicine forms the foundation of our practice, a 1,000 Euro prize will be awarded to both the best scientific paper and poster.
The first day will commence with an instructional course in a separate room, followed by a series of lectures in the afternoon, titled "On the Shoulders of Giants". Don’t miss this unique opportunity to learn from the worlds most recognised specialists and finest speakers!

However, the Congress will not just be dedicated to teaching and the hard task of concentrating for long periods of time. There will be lunch and refreshment breaks, a gala dinner on Friday the 11th of May, in addition to a 3-day pre-congress tour of the stunning Amalfi Coast, the island of Capri, and the unique remains of first Century life in Pompeii. A trip to Italy must always be accompanied by a chance to sample the astounding collection of her natural beauty, and historic sites.
I look forward to welcoming you in Rome in May 2012!

President, 7th IFFPSS Congress
