Welcome to 1st AFPSS Congress and 6th JiFESS

Increasing interest in facial plastic surgery in Asia has encouraged us to found the ASIAN FACIAL PLASTIC SURGERY SOCIETY. This AFPSS decided to establish an official Annual Meeting in promoting high-quality educational opportunities that would be held in different Asian countries.

It is the pleasure and privilege of the Asia Facial Plastic Surgery Society, Indonesian Society of ORL-HNS and Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia to host the 1st Asian Facial Plastic Surgery Society. This congress will be held together with the 6th Jakarta International Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (JIFESS) and will feature a highly qualified, adverse faculty and experience that will highlight the current and most stimulating developments in Asian facial plastic surgery and in FESS.

The first 2 days of the Congress is designed to take the participant from the basic fundamentals of rhinoplasty and facial plastic especially in Asian population through the latest refinements and advancements in technique. On the 3rd day participants will have a day lecture by Prof Stamberger. It will consist of didactic lectures, question-and-answer periods, and surgical video sessions. Live surgery demonstration of Rhinoplasty and FESS will be conducted on the 4th day.

We hope through these 4 days Congress the participants will benefit knowledge and experience both in Asian Facial Plastic Surgery and FESS. Hope to meet you in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, the city that provides many cultural events and great shopping centers.
