Queensland University of Technology, MERF

The Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS) invites you to the 2025 Anatomy For Injectors (AFI) Workshop, at Queensland University of Technology MERF, Thursday 12 June 2025.

Since its inception in 2017, the AFI has come to represent Australia’s premier anatomical dissection course for cosmetic injectors. Our core faculty of specialist plastic surgeons, teamed with injecting experts from all across the industry, will cover both basic and advanced techniques through a combination of fresh cadaver dissections as well as live, hands-on demonstrations. This allows for in-depth, three-dimensional visualisation and learning of facial anatomy that is only possible in a cadaver dissection lab. Our goal is to equip participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to maximise patient safety, and achieve consistent individual patient results.

The 2025 AFI will work in conjunction with the 2025 AFI Ultrasound Workshop + Living ART Ultrasound on Wednesday 11 June 2025, to incorporate hands-on ultrasound training curated and taught by the amazing Dr Stefania Roberts. This allows for visualisation and correlation between dynamic ultrasound anatomy and dissection lab anatomy, offering an immersive, multi-dimensional learning experience. Whilst the 2025 AFI is a standalone educational experience, we highly recommend attending both workshops for elevated learning.

We look forward to warmly welcoming you to the 2025 AFI.
