• Evaluate contemporary approaches to body contouring, high-definition liposuction, and structural and preservation rhinoplasty to inform patient selection, procedural planning, and risk assessment.
• Select evidence-based techniques and technologies for aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery based on patient characteristics, clinical indications, reconstructive or aesthetic goals, and available safety and outcomes evidence.
