We are pleased to invite you to the ISHRS 27th World Congress and World Live Surgery Workshop to take place November 13-17, 2019, at the beautiful Shangri-La Bangkok Hotel and King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital.
As you are aware, the field of Hair Transplantation Surgery continues to evolve! There are new findings, new research, new techniques, new pearls and ideas. We foster an intellectual, collegial, respectful and stimulating environment. Join us – share your experiences and learn from your peers. Your view point matters!
In order to facilitate learning all aspects of hair restoration, we have prepared a World Congress which includes the didactic components Wednesday through Saturday morning and World Live surgery workshop on Saturday & Sunday. Several pre-congress courses will take place on Wednesday, such as the Basics Course, Advanced/Board Review Course, Surgical Assistants Core Skills Workshop and Surgical Assistants Program. The general Sessions will take place from Thursday to Saturday, in addition to special sessions such as Live Patient Viewing, Discussion Table Topics, and the M&M Conference. There will be scientific posters for viewing and exhibition by companies involved in our field. Organized social events scheduled include the Welcome Reception (Thursday) and Gala (Saturday).
The World Congress education will conclude on Saturday by noon, at which time the World Live Surgery Workshop will begin. For those who add the World Live Surgery Workshop option to their registration record, the learning will continue with live patient demonstrations of Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) on Saturday afternoon, followed by a full surgical day of Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation-strip (FUT) procedures on Sunday. There will be limited number of registrations available for the World Live Surgery Workshop, so we encourage you to register early.
We encourage you to participate. Submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation. Consider bringing a patient for the Live Patient Viewing. Register and attend the meeting — participate in open microphone discussions, network with friends and colleagues, meet new people, collaborate on projects.
