Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) August 02, 2016
Renowned Dallas rhinoplasty surgeon and Symposium Chairman, Dr. Rod J. Rohrich, this week announced the dates for the 2017 International Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium. To be held from March 24th - 26th, 2017. The meeting will be held at the Westin Galleria Dallas.
Designed to take participants from the basic training and fundamentals of nose reshaping surgery through the most modern advancements and updates in rhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty, this unique, annual meeting is attended by plastic surgeons and otolaryngologists from around the world. Last year's symposium has attendees from over 40 countries.
One of the many unique features of this meeting is the Symposium's fresh cadaver anatomy lab in which participants gain hands-on experience under the direction of Dr. Rohrich and other renowned experts in rhinoplasty. The symposium also includes DVD video demonstrations, lectures, Q&A sessions, and panel discussions with some of the world's most experienced rhinoplasty surgeons.
"The Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium remains one of the most prolific educational venues for surgeons studying this very difficult cosmetic procedure," says Dr. Rohrich, who has also co-authored the leading textbooks on rhinoplasty "Dallas Rhinoplasty: Nasal Surgery by the Masters" based on presentations from the symposium. "Every plastic surgeon and otolaryngologist with any interest in rhinoplasty should consider attending this unique event."
Dr. Rohrich, who also serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery journal, believes that specialized, hands-on, educational symposia are a key component of surgeons' continuing medical education. "The Dallas Rhinoplasty Symposium provides access to information and advances that are truly on the forefront of this specialized area. Rhinoplasty remains one of the most difficult procedures in all of plastic surgery, one of great finesse which takes years to master," explains Dr. Rohrich.
