WELCOME ADDRESS
Dear friends and colleagues,
On Saturday, October 7th, Israel suffered a sudden, lethal attack by Hamas terrorists aimed at the Gaza perimeter communities in Israel, near our western border. What was soon termed the country’s “Black Sabbath” saw many of our best and brightest young men and women cruelly murdered, and Israel went to war with the aim of uprooting the criminal perpetrators on the other side of the fence.
The attack and its aftermath were shocking, disruptive and bewildering. On the other hand, we also experienced the positive power of togetherness, thanks to the Israeli spirit of unity and to massive global support. We honor all our friends, including doctors and medical teams from around the world, and we thank you for embracing and supporting us during these difficult days.
Meanwhile, we are once again moving forward with determination and will be happy to reprise a longstanding tradition: the Plastic Surgery at the Red Sea Symposium 2025. We have decided to reschedule it for April 2025 to enable the conference to be held with maximum safety and with the same atmosphere of collegial goodwill that has characterized this gathering over the years.
The conference will take place from April 2th to April 5th, 2025, at the Isrotel Royal Beach Hotel, Eilat, Israel.
360⁰ of Plastic Surgery:…meaning what?
We will address aesthetic as well as reconstructive plastic surgery, both for the body and the face, with a combination of inspiring professional lectures and workshops on surgery, advanced technologies, injections, and lots more.
A one-stop shop for the entire field.
The conference offers a time out from ordinary routine at a unique scientific event that is also very much a social event -- bringing together experienced plastic surgeons and residents from around the world to learn, celebrate, enjoy themselves and meet old and new friends in a more casual, less buttoned-down atmosphere on the shores of the Red Sea.
WELCOME to Eilat, ISRAEL
Eilat, Israel’s premier tourism town, sits on the edge of the Red Sea with the Negev mountains to the north and the Edom range to the east.
Enjoy leisure, sightseeing and water sports options, Negev desert tours, a vibrant night life and a glittering tropical seafront, alongside the clear expanse of the Red Sea framed by dramatic natural landscapes.
The conference will be held at the five-star Isrotel Royal Beach Hotel, one of the city’s top venues.
We look forward to hosting you at
