American Cosmetic Association (ACA) is an American plastic surgery, cosmetic dentistry, aesthetic medicine and cosmetic dermatology specialty organization.

Background

Founded in 2017. The association is composed of surgeons, dentists, physicians and scientists who specialize in and conduct research on aesthetic procedures and plastic surgery.[1]

ACA has been recognized by CDC for their diabetes prevention program that helps pre-diabetic individuals to reduce the risk of diabetes.[2][3] The program works in conjunction with other healthy lifestyle programs aimed at improving health and appearance.[4]

ACA launched "Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Awareness Day", an event which increases awareness about cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures, their risks and benefits.[5][6]
