Dr. Rod Rohrich Presents a Keynote Lecture at 40th Annual Cutting Edge Meeting in New York City

DALLAS, Jan. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Dallas plastic surgeon, Dr. Rod Rohrich, a world-renowned expert in the field of facial, cosmetic and rhinoplasty surgery shared his knowledge, passion, and expertise at the landmark 40^th annual Cutting Edge Aesthetic Surgery Symposium in New York City in December, 2019.  This meeting is co-chaired by Drs. Sherrell Aston and Daniel Baker, both pioneer leaders and educators in facial cosmetic surgery for over four decades.

This year's meeting focused on achieving superior results in all of cosmetic surgery and avoiding both complications and revision surgery.  Dr. Rohrich began this intense highly educational meeting with his pioneering research on the science of facial aging to advocate for the universal use of facial fat compartment augmentation in the modern facelift to achieve not only a more natural but long lasting result.  The goal of a modern facelift is to look unoperated but youthful, avoiding the windswept look so often seen in the past.  He also discussed new and innovative use of fat in upper facial and brow rejuvenation, avoiding the need of a browlift in most patients.  Dr. Rohrich also discussed how to achieve more consistent results in his designer facelift – the Lift and Fill Facelift that is done based upon each patient's precise facial analysis.

Dr. Rohrich is a Dallas-based plastic surgeon with a global clinical practice. He lectures, teaches and operates worldwide where he demonstrates the detailed and refined processes and innovations he has developed in facelift surgery and open rhinoplasty that deliver consistent great results and are safe and reproducible.  Dr. Rohrich is the chair of the world renowned Dallas Cosmetic and Dallas Rhinoplasty Meetings and author of Dallas Rhinoplasty, one of the most referenced textbooks on open rhinoplasty.
