The Australian Academy of Facial Plastic
Surgery formed in 1990 and brought together
a group of fully registered specialists
who perform aesthetic and reconstructive
procedures of the face, head and neck.
The Academy is the only specialist group
in Australasia focusing solely on facial
plastic surgery and is a founding member
of the International Federation of Facial
Plastic Surgery Societies (IFFPSS).
As a group, we are committed to continual
education, research and leadership for doctors
and clients with an interest in the field
of facial plastic surgery.
Our members are involved in registrar and
surgeon training, and membership of the
academy is open to specialists including,
Otolaryngologists, head and neck surgeons,
Ophthalmologists, Dermatologists, general
plastic surgeons, oral and faciomaxillary
surgeons.
In our comprehensive members
directory, each practitioner has listed
his or her specialist interest and if they
are part of our speakers’ bureau where
members give presentations on medical topics.
The Academy aims to provide a sharing environment
and we endorse cross-specialty involvement
as a means of informing and advancing medical
knowledge.
We also endeavour to provide up-to-date
information on procedures
and developments in facial plastic surgery
for our clients to enable them to make informed
decisions when choosing reconstructive and
cosmetic surgery.
