Complete guideFull MedicMess editorial briefing

BAAPS & ESAPS 2026 is the first combined flagship meeting from the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons and the European Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. It runs from 1 to 3 October 2026 at Pullman London St Pancras in King's Cross, with a three-day Shaw Theatre main programme and Hyde Park Suite expert parallel sessions. The official programme PDF lists detailed sessions across patient safety, body contouring after massive weight loss, breast surgery, rhinoplasty, facial rejuvenation, non-surgical treatments, lipedema, fat grafting, ethics, professional liability and medical tourism, with a Hackett Prize Presentation on Friday afternoon. The meeting is CPD approved and is aimed at aesthetic plastic surgeons and related practice teams. Abstract submission for 2026 has closed; submissions were open from 1 March to 10 July 2026, with a 200-word English-language limit. The abstract guidance states that oral and poster submissions are considered by the Programme Committee, accepted posters will be displayed electronically on the event app, and the abstracts chosen for oral or poster presentation will be printed in the meeting programme. Trainee members are specifically highlighted for the Michael Hackett Memorial Prize and the Poster Prize. Public pricing lists a full three-day non-member conference ticket at GBP 900 and trainee member three-day attendance at GBP 420. Booking itself requires a BAAPS website account, so no general registration closing date was visible without logging in.
