A surgical congress brings academic exchange to Tijuana
The August meeting was aimed at specialists and doctors in training.
Tijuana was announced as host of a plastic surgery congress on August 12–15, 2026, with local, national and international speakers. The announcement describes a professional education event.
Academic updating and professional accreditation serve different purposes. Cofepris requires specialist credentials and current certification for the relevant surgical practice; attending a congress does not replace those requirements.
