Attendees have access to eight educational tracks presented by the best and brightest in the specialty, including aesthetic, practice management, research and technology, breast, reconstructive, craniomaxillofacial/head and neck, hand and upper extremity. Plastic Surgery The Meeting will also launch its first two-day Spanish educational program, as well as new practice management courses to help plastic surgeons manage their operations and attain continued success outside of the operating room.
