International Federation of Facial Plastic Surgery Societies

The International Federation of Facial Plastic Surgery Societies (IFFPSS) is a gathering of social orders of facial plastic specialists from different nations around the globe. This Federation was shaped in 1997 after broad dialogs started by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. On September 7, 1997, in San Francisco, USA the Federation met and affirmed the standing rules created by Mr. Rhodes. The objectives of the IFFPSS are to advance and backing the development of Facial Plastic Surgery all through the world. Training, in each structure, is the essential center of this backing. The instructive exercises of the Federation incorporate courses, congresses, speaker trade programs, observational partnership, tapes, pamphlets, site educational trades, and the Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery. The Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery, an American Medical Association (AMA) diary, is the official diary of the IFFPSS. The Archives, with Dr. Wayne F. Larrabee as the Editor, takes into account the prompt production of advances in facial plastic surgery from individual specialists from all nations.

The IFFPSS energizes the development of facial plastic surgery in numerous courses inside its part social orders and in parts of the world where part social orders don't yet exist. It is expected that as facial plastic surgery develops inside a nation, new social orders will be framed, and that these new social orders will in the long run get to be individuals from the IFFPSS. Alternate exercises of the IFFPSS incorporate focal support and dispersion of individual part information, hone financial guidance, and legitimate interview. Expansive based projects for government funded instruction and training all through drug are completed to encourage general attention to facial plastic surgery.

The exercises of the IFFPSS are administered by the Board of Directors, which meets on a semi-yearly premise.
