Minimally Invasive Ortho - Facial Surgery First World Summit Naples 23 May 2026
Welcome to Naples

It is my
great pleasure to welcome you to Naples for the Minimally Invasive Ortho-Facial Surgery
Summit.
As Chairman of this congress, it is an honor to greet colleagues,
friends, and professionals
from all over the world, gathered here to share insights, experiences, and
innovations in a field
undergoing extraordinary transformation. Orthognathic
and facial surgery today are evolving at an exceptionally rapid pace. We live in
an era marked by
unprecedented digital and technological progress—an era in which innovation is
not just an added
value but a necessity. It is essential for surgeons to keep pace with these
advancements, embracing
tools, techniques, and approaches that reflect the level of excellence our
patients expect. Like many
other surgical disciplines, orthognathic surgery is moving toward minimally
invasive and
low-impact techniques, with the goal of ensuring a safer, faster, and less
traumatic postoperative
recovery. Our shared commitment is to allow patients to return to their daily
lives as quickly as
possible, without compromising precision or quality. This
congress brings together leading experts from around the world, pioneers not
only in orthognathic
surgery but in the entire field of facial surgery, masterfully integrating both
functional and
aesthetic dimensions in the management of facial deformities. Alongside these
esteemed masters,
we are pleased to welcome international Next Gen speakers who represent the rising stars
of the field—talented
clinicians and researchers who are already shaping the future of our
discipline. Our aim is
to offer a unique opportunity for growth, exchange, and inspiration: a dialogue
between those who
have written, those who are writing, and those who will write the future of
ortho-facial surgery. I
hope this intense and stimulating day will inspire everyone—young maxillofacial
and plastic
surgeons, orthodontists, and students in medicine and dentistry—and serve as a
meaningful milestone
in your professional journey.
Welcome to Naples, and I wish you all an excellent congress.
