DALLAS, June 16, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Following the popular annual Dallas Rhinoplasty Meeting, Dallas rhinoplasty specialist, Dr. Rod J. Rohrich, hosted a special, add-on course on rhinoplasty. Over 500 people from nearly 40 countries registered to attend this one day livestreamed event which included steaming surgical presentations, clinical analysis, interactive live panel discussions, and Q&A sessions focused specifically on rhinoplasty and secondary rhinoplasty.
