Kristin was an official speaker on "Kristin Osborn's Ultimate Guide to Plastic Surgery", and the Australian Patient & Therapist Representative at the 1st Lipedema World Congress, in Germany 2023, Kristin also attended the "Live Surgery Day" alongside Surgeons

I had the privilege of presenting the "Ultimate Guide to Plastic Surgery" at the inaugural Lipedema World Congress in Germany in 2023, receiving positive feedback from surgeons, some of whom have incorporated it into their consultation materials. Within my clinic, I assist numerous patients in preparing for a variety of surgeries, including weight loss procedures, plastic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and cancer reconstruction. Subsequently, I provide post-operative care to address issues such as ill-fitting compression garments leading to complications like excessive fibrosis, bruising, clots, seromas, hematomas, and infection. Common challenges include the absence of compression, lack of Manual Lymph Drainage Therapy, conflicting medications, and general confusion, resulting in disappointment. To rectify these issues, I developed "The Ultimate Guide To Plastic Surgery" a patient course.
