From anatomy to live surgery, in one unique international experience.
An advanced facial surgery immersion designed for European physicians.
Hands-on Anatomy Lab • Advanced Facial Anatomy • Live Surgery
November 26–28, 2026
Three days bringing together advanced anatomy, surgical strategy, hands-on dissection and live clinical application with an international faculty.
THREE DAYS. TWO SETTINGS.
ONE COMPLETE SURGICAL JOURNEY.
Deep Plane Málaga & Marbella is not designed as a traditional congress.
It is an immersive educational experience created to connect what you study in anatomy with what you perform in surgery.
The journey begins at the University of Málaga, where participants explore advanced facial anatomy, surgical concepts and hands-on dissection.
It culminates in Marbella, where those principles are translated into real clinical practice through live surgery.
Theory → Anatomy → Hands-on → Live Surgery
FROM ANATOMY TO LIVE SURGERY
ACADEMIC TRAINING
Advanced scientific discussions focused on facial anatomy, surgical planning and the principles behind contemporary facial rejuvenation techniques.
A rigorous academic environment where anatomy becomes the foundation for surgical decision-making.
University of Málaga
HANDS-ON ANATOMY LAB
A full day dedicated to anatomical dissection and practical training.
