Inside the Incision: Facelift Saturday, October 17 Sat, Oct 17 2:00-3:30 p.m. CDT
Inside the Incision is an interactive CME series that immerses participants in real-world surgical practice through recorded procedures paired with live expert narration. By pausing at critical intraoperative moments for discussion, the series fosters deeper insight into surgical decision-making, technique refinement, and complication management across key areas of plastic surgery.
This session will feature a pre-recorded facelift procedure with real-time narration by an expert plastic surgeon. Participants will observe key operative steps, including tissue dissection, SMAS manipulation, and skin re-draping, while engaging in interactive discussion during critical decision points. The live, pause-and-discuss format is designed to illuminate surgical judgment, anatomical considerations, and technique selection. Emphasis is placed on enhancing procedural insight and addressing common challenges encountered in facial rejuvenation surgery.
Upon completion of this learning activity, participants should be able to:
Analyze the sequential steps of a facelift procedure, including SMAS management and skin redraping techniques, to optimize aesthetic outcomes.
Evaluate intraoperative decision-making strategies at key junctures of the procedure to mitigate complications and improve patient-specific results.
Accreditation: The American Society of Plastic Surgeons® (ASPS) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Designation: The ASPS designates this live activity for a maximum of 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
