New Approach to Plastic Surgery Education - The Cosmetic Enhancement Expo

The Cosmetic Enhancement Expo, sponsored by Beautysurg.com, is the first consumer learning event in the U.S. to educate the public about plastic surgery and related fields. The event takes place at the Los Angeles Convention Center, November 5th-7th, 2004.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) September 2, 2004 -- No one can deny that plastic surgery has become a favorite topic of the media as plastic surgery increases in acceptance and safety, while risks and recovery times decrease. Television, radio, newspapers and magazines cover the topic of cosmetic surgery daily, but until now there has been no interactive means of directly educating the public about it. On November 5th, 6th, and 7th, the Los Angeles Convention Center will be home to the first consumer learning event exploring cosmetic enhancement in the U.S.

Known as the Cosmetic Enhancement Expo, the three day event will educate 15,000 consumers about their options in cosmetic enhancement and introduce them to local and national experts and suppliers in the industry. The educational conference and exposition sponsored by Beautysurg.com, will feature some of the country's leading medical professionals, such as Malcom Paul, MD (former president of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery), Garth Fisher, MD (creator of ABCs Extreme Makeover), and Zein Obagi, MD (creator of Obagi Nu-Derm Skincare) to name a few. Informative lectures will be presented by experts on such topics as patient safety, choosing a doctor, surgical techniques, innovative procedures, financing, digital imaging, new technology, and non-invasive treatments.

In addition to plastic surgery, consumers will also be educated about cosmetic dentistry, dermatology, vision correction, anti-aging medicine, fitness, and skincare. A trade show floor with 200 exhibitors and 2 theater stages for live demonstrations will further expand the opportunities for learning. Potential patients will have a chance to meet with representatives from doctors offices and companies such as Mentor, Botox Cosmetic, Medicis (Restylane), Beautysurg.com, and Obagi Medical Products.

For many years, doctors have had the opportunity to attend conferences and learn about the latest advances in their field of medicine. Now, for the first time in the United States, the Cosmetic Enhancement Expo will bring education of the cutting-edge of Cosmetic Enhancement directly to the patients on November 5th, 6th, and 7th, 2004 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Future expos are scheduled in 2005 for Miami, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles.
