Vegas Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology
– A Multi-Specialty Symposium
This Symposium is now celebrating its 11th anniversary in Las Vegas under the leadership and coordination of its founder, S. Randolph Waldman, MD.
Vegas Cosmetic Surgery was initiated to foster a spirit of cooperation and understanding between the four “core” specialties that are primarily involved in
the science, practice and teaching of aesthetic surgery and medicine. This Symposium is proud to host the leading educators and teachers in the fields of
facial plastic surgery, plastic surgery, dermatology and oculoplastic surgery.
We are extremely proud that Vegas Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology was not only the first truly multi-specialty forum in the aesthetic field, but
by listening to our faculty and attendees, VCS is now the largest event of its kind in North America.
Thank You!
Dear Community of Aesthetic Surgery & Cosmetic Medicine,
We are really excited to showcase the 11th annual Vegas Cosmetic Surgery Symposium which
takes place once again at the Bellagio. This year we have been fortunate to attract what I
believe to be the leading multi-specialty faculty ever assembled at one event. We will once
again feature four major meeting tracks. A Surgical Track, a Non-Invasive Track, a Masters
Seminar track, and of course our world class Practice Management and Marketing Track.
Join us in June of 2015 for five stimulating days of learning, camaraderie, and international
all-core professional interaction. With a format large enough to offer dawn-to-dusk learning
opportunities, yet small enough for personal faculty visits, VCS provides a unique experience.
As many as four simultaneous sessions will challenge and stimulate attendees to select from
a medical and surgical smorgasbord of classes, panels, lectures, seminars, and multimedia
presentations. A world-class international faculty, an exhibit hall filled with the industry’s
latest products, social gatherings where connections form and friendships ignite, and luxury
accommodations combine to make this a memorable experience. As president-elect of the
International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, it gives me great satisfaction to announce
that ISAPS is endorsing the 2015 Vegas Cosmetic meeting including the all new Breast & Body
Symposium. We will be bringing some of the best plastic surgeons in the world to Las Vegas in
2015. Don’t miss out on this great learning opportunity!
The comment we most often hear from those who attend our conference is that they wish they
could be in all four sessions at the same time. The second most frequent comment is “I wish I
had brought key members of my staff with me” so they could attend the Practice Session. This
year promises to raise the bar for all other meeting directors around the world!
Some of the panels this year will also be memorable and timely. These include a timely panel
on Managing Your Online Reputation. Other important panels will discuss “why we are seeing
more and more filler complications” and also an important focus group on the legal issues we
are challenged by in our practices on a daily basis that will include our 6 Attorney Legal All
Star Panel. Other important panels will discuss the science and even the hype associated with
non-invasive body contouring and skin tightening.
We are also really excited this year to have two sessions that will address the controversies in
aesthetic medicine and surgery. Donn Chatham is a world class moderator and will make this
both a fun and informative session. And, of course, we will continue to have the largest exhibit
hall of any independent aesthetic conference in North America with over 130 companies
represented.
Finally the Practice Management and Marketing Sessions this year will feature over 40 of
the nation’s leading marketing and management professionals. There will be special panels
and workshops on Social Media, Skin Care, Facebook, Website Critiques, and Modern Office
Dilemmas and Pearls.
And all of the above will be worth 44 CME credits making this the only conference most of you
need to attend in 2015. So I hope you will take the time to read through this program and
then take a look at the testimonials from our previous attendees at vegascosmeticsurgery.com
and I believe you will see why we believe that VCS has become one of the leading aesthetic
conferences in the world.

It gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend the 11th Multi-Specialty Meeting in Las Vegas

Surgical and Non-Surgical techniques for Face, Breast, and Body, as well as incorporating a
special emphasis on Practice Management. We invite you to bring your Patient Coordinators,

treat and serve your patients. You will not get it anywhere else – See you in Vegas in 2015!
