Royal Society of Medicine Honors Beverly Hills Surgeon John Anastasatos

The certificate, signed by Dean of Education Professor Julia Manning and Plastic Surgery Section President Kallirroi Tzafetta, marks a rare distinction for the surgeon, whose work is now formally integrated into the Society’s postgraduate medical record. On March 13, 2026, Anastasatos presented three back-to-back sessions in London, detailing his proprietary Minimally Invasive Midface Suspension (MIMS) and refinements to the deep plane facelift. His afternoon presentations shifted focus to body aesthetics, emphasizing the surgical artistry required for natural, harmonious outcomes.

For Anastasatos, the recognition represents a validation of the intersection between science and craft within his field. "To have that contribution formally documented by the Society's leadership reflects the value our international colleagues place on these techniques," he said. The surgeon, who maintains practices in Beverly Hills and Athens, has built his reputation on meticulous surgical judgment, previously earning titles as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor. By sharing his methodology with an international audience of peers and residents, Anastasatos continues to influence surgical standards far beyond his private clinics, cementing his position as a recognized authority in aesthetic medicine.
