There are currently no residency programs in the U.S. devoted exclusively to cosmetic surgery, and existing surgical residency programs do not include adequate training to learn the vast array of cosmetic surgery procedures. Recognizing this void, AACS certifies post‐residency cosmetic surgery fellowships in general cosmetic surgery and facial cosmetic surgery.

The one year fellowships offer:

• Hands-on training on cosmetic surgery procedures
• A broad and complete sequence of patient experiences
for the Training Fellow to master the principles of aesthetics and patient consultations and management
• Unparalleled training on running a successful cosmetic
surgery practice
• Instruction in the basic sciences, anatomy, anesthesia,
ethics, pre- and post-operative management, and surgical
techniques

AACS Certified Fellowships are a pathway to American Boardof Cosmetic Surgery and American Board of Facial CosmeticSurgery certification.

Learn more about launching a cosmetic surgery career on November 4, 2021, at 7:00PM (Central Time).  A panel of Fellowship Program Directors and former and current Training Fellows will discuss how their AACS Certified Fellowship training impacted their cosmetic surgery career.
