Frequently asked

Before you apply

Who runs the fellowship and the immersion courses?

Aesthetic Global Training (AGT), the society's official in-person programme, led by Dr. Marcelo Policarpo de Souza Assis at Doutor Opera Day Hospital in Campinas, Brazil. Applications, dates and fees are on aestheticglobaltraining.com.

Is the fellowship hands-on?

No. It is an observership. Fellows observe in the operating room and clinic, take part in planning and postoperative discussion and simulation on models. Any contact with patients would depend on authorisation by Brazilian authorities and the hospital, with patient consent and specific insurance, and is never promised.

How long is the fellowship?

From one to three months, booked in weekly blocks through AGT, at Doutor Opera Day Hospital in Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil. One fellow at a time.

What do ISASE members get?

Priority in selection for members who completed the Fundamentals and Facial surgery tracks, a member discount on the fellowship and on immersion courses, and the advanced ISASE certificate on completion. Membership is not required to apply to AGT.

What does it cost and what is included?

AGT publishes the current fee per week on its site (from EUR 250 a week at the time of writing). Travel, lodging and insurance are the fellow's responsibility; AGT provides an invitation letter for the visa and help with accommodation.

Is this the same as the ISAPS fellowship in Campinas?

Yes: AGT is the host site listed by the ISAPS Fellowship Program for Campinas. ISAPS members may apply through ISAPS; everyone else applies directly on the AGT site.
