The AACS Hospital will offer a range of services, including the AACSH Educational Centre, which will offer accredited surgical and non-surgical workshops affiliated to the AACS. The workshops aim to improve physicians' skillsets as well as educate the public about cosmetic surgery. "We are indeed honoured to announce the launch of the AACS Hospital a day before the ‘World Congress on Liposuction Surgery and Advances in Cosmetic Surgery in the UAE' in Dubai," said executive director of the AACS Hospital, Jeehan Abdul Qader MD.

In addition, we are proud to open our facility at DHCC, the world's first healthcare free zone that already hosts a number of renowned service providers."
The AACS will have a number of ‘special units', including the anti-aging department for non-invasive services and injectable therapy, as well as a laser therapy unit. A surgical unit comprises the cosmetic surgery department, reconstructive plastic surgery department and hair restoration surgery department.
