About this Journal
YPA Aesthetic Clinical Case Reports (YPA-ACCR) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated exclusively to publishing high-quality clinical case reports and case series in aesthetic medicine, cosmetic dermatology, plastic surgery, hair restoration, cosmetic dentistry, regenerative aesthetics, and related specialties.
The journal provides a dedicated platform for clinicians and surgeons to share unique clinical experiences, rare presentations, innovative treatment approaches, procedural techniques, unexpected outcomes, and complication management. By publishing carefully documented case reports, YPA Aesthetic Clinical Case Reports promotes knowledge sharing, clinical education, and evidence-based decision-making within the global aesthetic medicine community.
We particularly encourage submissions describing novel procedures, challenging clinical scenarios, treatment complications and their management, combination therapies, long-term patient outcomes, and lessons that can improve everyday clinical practice. Well-documented negative outcomes and unexpected adverse events are equally valuable, as they contribute to safer and more effective patient care.
