This two part program includes a hands-on cadaver workshop and an optional live surgery observership that offers training by world-renowned advanced facelift surgeons. The workshop aims to identify and critically analyze typical and atypical changes associated with facial aging, discuss and evaluate the aesthetic and functional anatomy of the head and neck, and the interplay between the two. Participants will develop manual skills to understand the "feel" of the multiple and varied tissue planes that exist in the human face and neck, and perform basic and advanced facelifting techniques on specimens for the management of the aging lower face. The surgical emphasis will be on advanced facelifting techniques, as well as treatment for the aging neck and restoring facial balance through fat transfers.
The first two days of the course (Part I), will be held at Practical Anatomy and Surgical Education (PASE) and Part II, the optional live surgery observership, will be at Nayak Plastic Surgery.
Attendees may register for either Part I & II or Part I only. Part II is NOT available as a separate session and has a limited number of openings.
