Dear colleagues,

Since 2018 the SOAP Meeting is one of TOP Live – Surgery congresses worldwide for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, which is not just an outstanding achievement, but also a dream come true.
It is a gathering of the most experienced plastic surgeons from around the world, where they not only present, but also perform live surgeries and show their tips and tricks, as well as simultaneously discuss and teach.

This enables endless opportunities for all participants to learn and innovate, which we believe is essential, since sharing knowledge is the basis of scientific advancement. This is a learned skill, which keeps on giving throughout our professional lives.

We succeeded in being the first and only international Live-Surgery congress facilitating intimate learning possibilities in the world of Aesthetic Plastic surgery.

Following last year’s great success, we proudly present this year’s 5th SOAP-Live Surgery congress with ten special outstanding Live-Operations performed by the leaders and innovators of Plastic Surgery. We are working in cooperation with the German Society for Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (DGPRÄC) and the Turkish Society for Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (TPRECD).

We are also delighted to announce from this year onwards, that each year we are partnering with different plastic surgical societies from around the world. For SOAP Meeting 2023 we are honored to host the Turkish Society TPRECD as our partner.

For our participants this year we have organized two very special events. The first takes place the day before the congress and is our Pre- Congress : MASTERCLASS Cadaver course with 6 Hands-On Live operations by the experts focusing on Facial Aesthetic Surgeries. The second one will take place on the last day of the congress and is our Post- Congress : Hands-On Workshops with 10 minimal invasive Aesthetic Plastic surgical armamentarium performed by international experts.

Throughout the congress, you will be able to observe new and innovative methods in Aesthetic Plastic surgical procedures, to improve your expertise, results, and minimize complications. Furthermore, you will be able to ask questions directly to the operating surgeons and interactively discuss with them as well as other participants.

Your discussions are the highlight of our congress; you do in fact operate with us.

We are very much looking forward to welcoming you to our special meeting here in the wonderful Free Hanseatic City of Bremen
from the 23rd to the 25th of November.
You definitely don’t want to miss it.

Sincerely yours,

Prof. Dr. C. Can Cedidi
Congress President
