LESSONS FROM CHICAGO
Conchal cartilage as Alar support grafts … too weak …makes sense
Turkish Delight makes way for Sausages & Swiss rolls ! Abel-Jan Tasman’s trick … the best presentation of a new technique … will it work sans fascia … or perhaps lay some fascia over the graft …
The elephant in the room … Injectables were not mentioned over four days ! hmmm …
Microdermabraision for columellar & Alar base scars … quiet again …
Rib cartilage grafts … indications and refined use … Dean Toriyumi’s masterclass
Did I notice a wee step back towards the “close”approach ? …Pastorek, Bobby Simon & Pietro Palma beckon …
Gilbert Nolst Trenite demonstrated the deprojection techniques beautifully … I have had the priviledge of observing and assisting him on several occasions during my fellowship with him …
Pre and Post pictures still lacking standardization … even at this level !!!
