Hosted by Professor Konstantina Skanavis, the presentation examined the intersection of reconstructive procedures and population health. Anastasatos detailed his work across a broad spectrum of medical needs, including post-mastectomy breast reconstruction, abdominal wall repair, and burn-injury management. He also explored the evolution of aesthetic techniques, such as the deep plane facelift and his proprietary Minimally Invasive Midface Suspension, while emphasizing the importance of long-term safety in medical devices.
Dr. John Anastasatos Bridges Plastic Surgery and Public Health in Athens
On May 29, 2026, board-certified surgeon Dr. John Anastasatos addressed the School of Public Health at the University of West Attica. His lecture challenged the traditional perception of plastic surgery, framing the field not merely as cosmetic enhancement but as a critical component of trauma care, oncology, and patient safety.
Beyond technical methodology, the session addressed the future of the discipline, specifically the integration of artificial intelligence and the shifting expectations of modern patients. This engagement marks a new academic milestone for Anastasatos, whose work has previously been featured at the Royal Society of Medicine in London. Following the positive reception of the event, the University of West Attica has invited the surgeon to return for future collaborations, signaling an ongoing commitment to bridging the gap between private clinical practice and public health education in Greece.
