FROM THE PRESIDENT
SCOTT HANSEN, MD

Dear California Society of Plastic Surgery Members,

I hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing summer and are transitioning smoothly into a productive fall season.

As we enter this new season, I am thrilled to share a few exciting updates from the California Society of Plastic Surgeons (CSPS):

• New Website Redesign: We have officially launched our newly redesigned CSPS website! We encourage you to explore the updated platform, which features a more modern, user-friendly interface designed to better serve our community and streamline access to member resources.

• Abstract Call Success: The call for abstracts has officially closed, and we are proud to report an incredible turnaround with a record number of high-quality submissions. Thank you to everyone who contributed.

• April 2027 Annual Meeting: We are already hard at work building an exceptional meeting for April 2027 which will occur at the newly remodeled Claremont Resort and Club in Berkeley, California. The program features an outstanding lineup of educational panels that offer a robust mix of both reconstructive surgery and aesthetic surgery advancements.

We are incredibly excited about what is ahead, and we hope to see your continued involvement in the Society!

Warm regards,
