Dear Esteemed Colleagues and Friends,

On behalf of the organizing committee, it is my great honor and pleasure to welcome you to the 69th Annual Meeting of the Japan Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, to be held in Tokushima City from April 22 to 24, 2026.

We are especially delighted to extend a warm welcome to our international guests. Your participation not only enriches the scientific content of our meeting but also strengthens the bonds of friendship and collaboration among plastic and reconstructive surgeons worldwide.

This year’s congress will focus on innovation, integration, and future perspectives in plastic surgery, with special emphasis on areas such as tissue engineering, microsurgery, craniofacial reconstruction, and aesthetic surgery. We are preparing a rich scientific program featuring distinguished speakers from Japan and abroad, including several special invited lectures in English by internationally renowned experts. In addition, we warmly invite abstract submissions for free paper presentations, which will be an essential part of the academic program and open to international participants.

Tokushima, the host city, is located on the island of Shikoku and is easily accessible from major cities in Japan. It is approximately one hour by plane from Tokyo Haneda Airport, and about two to two and a half hours by highway bus from the Kansai region, including Kobe and Osaka.

In addition to its natural beauty and traditional culture, Tokushima offers a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere that we hope you will enjoy during your stay.

Thank you for joining us. We look forward to welcoming you to Tokushima and sharing a meaningful and memorable experience together.

Warmest regards,
