TLDR The congress discussed fat grafting, stem cells, and safety in plastic and regenerative surgery, with plans for a future meeting in Chicago.
The Sixth World Congress of the International Society of Plastic and Regenerative Surgeons (ISPRES) in Dubai, held from November 17-19, 2017, with 249 delegates and 58 faculty members, featured live surgeries and discussions on regenerative surgery, particularly focusing on fat grafting and its clinical applications for conditions like scars and amputation sites. The event also covered topics such as stromal vascular fraction, adipose-derived stem cells, and the use of platelet-rich plasma in combination with fat grafting. The next congress was planned for Chicago in 2018.
