Course Description:
Thirty-six years ago, Superficial Anatomy and Cutaneous Surgery was conceived as a course which would be beneficial to dermatologists, dermatologic surgeons and other physicians.

This cutting edge program is designed to provide the basic principles of superficial head and neck anatomy and surgery for those interested in dermatological surgery.  Each participant will utilize fresh cadaver material for superficial head & neck dissection. Lectures will be used for initial instruction and will be followed by ample time in the laboratory.

In addition, the course will focus on local skin flaps and grafts as they pertain to the cutaneous surgeon. Small group workshops will give participants an opportunity to problem solve with the outstanding faculty we have assembled.

2019 Highlights include:
• Optional evening workshop sessions
• Extensive hands-on cadaver laboratory time
• Laboratory manuals with diagrams and daily goals
• Botulinum toxin current status
• Y lift
• Updated resurfacing techniques

Objectives:
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
• Identify the principles of superficial head and neck anatomy
• Review the principles of construction via local skin flaps
• Demonstrate full thickness and split thickness skin grafts
• Illustrate the anatomic principles and reconstruction of specific body units (e.g. ear, nose, foot, hand, etc.)
• Examine indications and treatment of photo damaged skin, including chemical peels, dermabrasion and topical therapies

Please Note: ALL participants are required to sign a release form to participate in the cadaver labs. The release form and a list of surgical instruments to bring to the labs

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
