This educational double-feature webinar from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) offers an in-depth exploration of key techniques and innovations in rhinoplasty and breast surgery. The session on rhinoplasty, moderated by Dr. Samuel Lin, features expert discussions on tip shaping, septal extension grafts, cartilage preservation, and closed rhinoplasty techniques, delivering practical strategies to enhance surgical precision and outcomes. The breast surgery segment showcases expert insights on preoperative planning, surgical execution, and postoperative care. Topics include implant stabilization, periareolar mastopexy, and the application of high-resolution ultrasound for implant surveillance. Through case-based learning and practical pearls, this course emphasizes refined technique, thoughtful planning, and the integration of modern technologies to elevate clinical results in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.

Intended Audiance
This activity is designed for board-certified and board-eligible plastic surgeons, facial plastic surgeons, and aesthetic surgeons with a clinical interest in rhinoplasty and breast surgery. It is also relevant for surgical residents, fellows, and other healthcare professionals involved in aesthetic and reconstructive surgery who seek to refine their techniques, adopt innovative tools, and stay current with best practices in patient care.

Learning Objectives 
After participating in this activity, learners will be able to:
  1. Describe advanced techniques in rhinoplasty, including tip shaping and the use of septal extension grafts to optimize nasal structure and function. Apply principles of cartilage preservation and reshaping to improve rhinoplasty outcomes while minimizing complications.
  2. Compare open versus closed rhinoplasty approaches and assess indications for each technique.
  3. Identify key considerations in breast augmentation and mastopexy, including preoperative assessment and intraoperative techniques to prevent implant displacement.
  4. Evaluate the use of high-resolution ultrasound for breast implant surveillance and explain its role in enhancing patient safety and postoperative care.
