Facial plastics course

This is an intensive, highly interactive course which is suitable for core CT2 - 3 and higher surgical trainees ST3 — 8 in Otolaryngology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Plastic Surgery, or surgeons aspiring to embark on rhinoplasty and facial plastic surgery. The course programme aims to provide a theoretical and practical overview of the aesthetic anatomy of the nose, basic surgical principles of septorhinoplasty, pinnaplasty and facial skin flaps. This unique course will consist of tutorials and supervised cadaver dissection on fresh frozen cadavers at the state-of-the-art anatomy laboratory at the University of Liverpool. This course will focus on principles of aesthetic analysis and anatomy of the nose and nasal septum, as well as the design and execution of skin flaps on the head and neck. Supported by experienced rhinoplasty surgeons, delegates will learn the surgical steps and techniques of basic rhinoplasty surgery, pinnaplasty and skin flaps. The course aims to cover knowledge and skill competencies required for the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme for higher surgical training in Otolaryngology.

The facial plastic surgery component of the Emory otolaryngology residency exposes residents to all aspects of the field. This training program is managed by Anita B. The program's primary clinical location is the Emory Aesthetic Center , an elegant facility that is seven miles from Emory University Hospital Midtown. The center provides the highest quality service in a private practice-type environment, with operating rooms and overnight care services on site. The core curriculum includes six hours of lectures and board review per year dedicated to facial plastic surgery.

Following the Keogh report earlier this year into the quality of cosmetic surgery in the UK, surgical training into cosmetic surgery is high on the agenda. In reality the training received is very variable. Trainees in plastic surgery and OFMS are unfortunately seeing fewer rhinoplasties in many regions due to funding restrictions. All three specialties train their registrars in facial skin cancer excision and reconstruction, though again the quality of this training is very variable.
