Multispecialty Aesthetic Conference (MAC) 2022

Multispecialty Aesthetic Conference (MAC) is organized by the California Society of Facial Plastic Surgery (CSFPS), California Rhinoplasty Society (CRS), Multi-Specialty Foundation For Aesthetic Surgical Excellence (F.A.S.E.) and will be held from Aug 04 - 07, 2022 at Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina, San Diego, California, United States of America.

Description:
The Multispecialty Aesthetic Conference is designed by medical professionals, for medical professionals. Advance your clinical skills, forge meaningful connections and implement real solutions to help your practice prosper. In 3.5 days of keynote presentations, live demos and workshops, a curated exhibit hall, networking functions, and so much more, this is a new event you won’t want to miss.

The MAC offers hundreds of presentations spanning five tracks, making this one of the industry's most comprehensive educational events.

Statement of Need:
There is a lack of truly multi-specialty educational sessions that include worldwide, prominent educators from each field, brought together for technique discussions and knowledge sharing. This symposium is unique in that it brings an international audience to San Diego to link together and build a truly multi-disciplinary environment with a balanced representation of all the core specialties: dermatology, facial plastic surgery, oculoplastic surgery, and plastic surgery. This education program will include high-quality, learner friendly discussions on technique(s), emerging technology, complications that may arise (and how to avoid them), and non-invasive alternatives to surgery. Evaluations from 20+ years of meetings produced by Dr. S. Randolph Waldman, our founder and organizer, have shown a consistent desire and need for multi-disciplinary education in these aesthetic specialties. Physicians within these fields have demonstrated the desire for in-depth technique discussions as a matter of providing a necessary, strong pool of knowledge among the specialties. The 2022 MAC meets the need for a truly multi-specialty educational experience to help achieve better standards and patient outcomes.

Educational Objectives:

• Compare options for skin rejuvenation through the use of modern lasers and other skin tightening devices, fillers, injectables, and minimally invasive lifting techniques
• Differentiate the various approaches to blepharoplasty and browlifting to determine which technique is best suited for the patient
• Estimate which patients are better candidates for surgical rejuvenation versus which may benefit from non-invasive approaches
• Assess controversial topics in facial aesthetic surgery for more informed decisions as related to patient outcomes
• Distinguish various face lifting techniques as they relate to anatomy
• Discuss the truths and limitations utilizing injectable fillers and non-invasive devices
