Mendelson Deep Plane Face Lift will be a condensed version of the renowned two-day MAFAC Course. This course is specifically oriented for surgeons who want to learn how to safely incorporate the latest advances in understanding facial anatomy into their aesthetic facial plastic surgery. The course is tightly structured as a guided, hands-on dissection program, having only two participants for each cadaver head, with a highly experienced dissection tutor for every four participants.

The Hands-on Aesthetic Facial Contouring Surgical day will focus on contemporary approaches in facial bony contouring, facial implants, brow lifting, hairline advancement, cheek augmentation, and mandible contouring and facial gender affirmation surgery including comprehensive forehead contouring with frontal sinus setback using 3D printing models and surgical guides that are specific to the specimen the participant is working on. 

Target Audience

This course is designed for surgeons in the field of plastic surgery.
