Webinar: Aesthetic breast surgery: Mastering the basics – Tuesday 11 Aug 2020 from 12:00pm to 5:00pm.
This RSM webinar will examine the key aspects of aesthetic (cosmetic) breast surgery in females and males from auto-augmentation mastopexy to breast implant illness. You will learn how to ‘do the basics well’, rather than just another ‘masterclass’.
This webinar will teach you how to master the basics – a skill set that is often overlooked and invaluable.
During this webinar you will:
- Learn about breast augmentation implant based on combination fat transfer and uplift
- Be introduced to breast reduction techniques
- Be introduced to male plastic surgery
- Learn the latest information on cosmetic surgery credentialing
- Be updated on breast implant illness
- Learn about combination treatments such as mummy makeover
