Women In Facial Plastic Surgery Committee
The Women in Facial Plastic Surgery (WFPS) Committee seeks to acknowledge, celebrate, and expand the achievements of female members of the Academy, within the AAFPRS, our specialty and the larger world of organized medicine. The WFPS Committee serves as an authentic vehicle to inspire women to be a significant and influential part of the next generation of facial plastic and reconstructive surgeons and leaders, while fostering camaraderie and networking among the Academy’s female physicians and allies. Providing a forum that represents and advances their interests, the WFPS Committee works to actively recruit women to pursue careers in facial plastic surgery; to promote gender equity; and to encourage our female members to participate in research, education (including teaching and fellowship training) and leadership roles in the AAFPRS and the medical community.
