Abstract
Abstract: Extensive exposure to aesthetic surgery is not universally available in all plastic surgery residency programs, particularly in less developed countries. Initiatives by organizations such as ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) help trainees bridge gaps in their education in aesthetic surgery. As a former observer of Prof Ruth Graf, the author shares their experience with the ISAPS Expert Program, offering an overview of the benefits and opportunities provided by such initiatives.
