Supporting the ideas of promising surgeons, the Cosmetic Surgery Foundation is pleased to encourage consistent, innovative and aggressive research in the multidisciplinary specialty of cosmetic surgery. Starting in 2006, the Foundation has awarded over $200,000 in grants to eligible surgeons that wish to impact the science through original research.
Realizing that education is a life-long pursuit, these grants will be available to any surgeon—from the up-and-coming resident brimming with ideas to the established cosmetic surgeon seeking something new. Through the distribution of these grants, the Foundation strives to achieve its mission of advancing the science of cosmetic surgery and enhancing patient safety and trust. The next discovery is waiting, and the Foundation will help bring it to life.
