From 11 to 13 September the ISAPS World Congress takes place in Vienna. ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) is the world's largest society for aesthetic surgery, with members from 100 different countries.
The highlight of this year's congress is the so-called SOS Symposium at which live operations are transmitted directly from the Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine .
Failed cosmetic operations are a great burden not only for the patients concerned. They are also a great challenge for inexperienced surgeons. Corrective operations can be far more complex than the first operation and require a great deal of know-how.

For this reason the SOS Symposium was brought into being 10 years ago. SOS stands for Secondary Optimizing Aesthetic Surgery.
At the SOS Symposium some of the most renowned international plastic surgeons carry out live operations in order to demonstrate the techniques for correcting aesthetic operations that have gone wrong.
Accordingly the interest in the congress is very great, with participants from all over the world.
This year, because of the travel restrictions still applying for some countries, a so-called hybrid event is taking place. Besides the doctors present in person, many hundreds of surgeons will follow the proceedings of the congress online.
‘It is good that one of the first large scientific events after the break in congresses forced by COVID is taking place in Vienna, and it is a particular honour that our clinic may play a central role in it’ says Rafic Kuzbari, the medical director of the Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine.
We are proud that this year's SOS Symposium is being transmitted live from our operating theatres to the whole world and that the Kuzbari Centre may play a central role at this highly regarded congress.
The planned live operations are corrections after:
facelifts, nasal operations, eyelid lifts and breast operations.
Univ. Doz. Dr. Rafic Kuzbari appears regularly, together with the other doctors of the Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine, in Austria's leading newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations.
