Dear Members of the International Society of Dermatologic and Aesthetic Surgery, 
As the President of ISDS, I am proud to lead a global network of experts dedicated to advancing  dermatologic and aesthetic surgery. For over four decades, ISDS has been at the forefront of  promoting education, research, and clinical practice in this rapidly evolving field. 
Our society is more than just an academic association, we are a community that fosters a  culture of excellence, inclusivity, and collegiality. Our members come from diverse backgrounds  and regions, united by the common goal of advancing the science and art of dermatologic and  aesthetic surgery. 
ISDS is an apolitical institution dedicated to academic excellence, critical inquiry, and respectful  discourse. We promote a culture of collegiality among our members, where our interactions are  marked by mutual respect, unbiased sharing of information, and the absence of competition in  scientific pursuits. 
ISDS is a neutral organization that does not differentiate people based on religion, ethnicity, or  nationality. We welcome every individual into our family who shares our passion and  commitment to dermatologic and aesthetic surgery. 
As a society, we consider ourselves a family. Our members share a bond of trust and mutual  support, stemming from our common passion for making a difference in the lives of our  patients. We strive to provide a platform for exchanging knowledge and fostering social  networks, leading to long-lasting collaborations and friendships. 
I invite you to join me in celebrating the ISDS community and the vital contributions we make to  global health and well-being. Let us continue to support and empower each other as we grow  and thrive together. 
Hope to see you all at the 44th Annual Meeting of the International Society of Dermatologic and  Aesthetic Surgery (ISDS) in Abu Dhabi, October 16-18, 2025.
