The 60th Annual Baker Gordon Educational Symposium: The Culmination of a Legacy, Baker Gordon’s Grand Finale "Contemporary Advancements: The Harbinger For Future Developments in Aesthetic Surgery"
For our Grand Finale, we have invited those expert surgeons who have led to many of the current innovations in cosmetic surgery procedures. This year’s meeting will include live demonstrations and lectures on the open approach to preservation and structural rhinoplasty, deep plane vs SMAS face lifting, advancements in primary and re-operative breast augmentation, and advances in body contour surgery including rib remodeling.
The Baker Gordon Symposium has always embraced aesthetic developments, including procedures emphasizing reconstructive challenges. From our perspective what is termed a “reconstructive procedure” is only as successful as the aesthetic outcome, and the distinction between reconstructive and aesthetic surgery remains arbitrary. To examine the aesthetic challenges of reconstructive surgery we have invited Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez to share his experiences in facial transplantation, as well as the methods which restore appearance in reconstructive deformities.
