Ultrasound in Gluteal Fat Grafting Friday, October 10 Fri, Oct 10 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. CDT
Gluteal fat grafting continues to evolve with advancements in technique and technology aimed at maximizing both aesthetic outcomes and patient safety. This comprehensive session will provide an evidence-based update on current safety guidelines, including the use of intraoperative ultrasound to enhance precision and reduce the risk of fat embolism. Faculty will demonstrate best practices through a live prosection demonstration, emphasizing cannula placement, depth control, and dynamic ultrasound visualization. Attendees will hear key insightson current standards and protocols that support safe, reproducible results in gluteal augmentation.
Upon completion of this learning activity, participants should be able to:
- Summarize the latest safety guidelines and consensus recommendations for gluteal fat grafting, including anatomical risk zones.
- Demonstrate proper use of intraoperative ultrasound to guide cannula placement and monitor fat deposition in real time.
- Implement surgical techniques and safety protocols that minimize the risk of intravascular injection and other procedure-related complications.
- Evaluate patient selection criteria and postoperative management strategies specific to ultrasound-guided gluteal fat grafting.
