Point-of-care ultrasound is revolutionizing the field of cosmetic surgery by enhancing the safety and precision of fat grafting procedures.
In this 1-hour webinar, you’ll learn how easy it is to add handheld ultrasound to your plastic surgery practice and reduce the dangers of blind fat grafting procedures. Dr. Salzman will share proven ultrasound-guided techniques for improving the safety of Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedures and autologous fat transfer in breast augmentations. We will explore:
- Gluteal and breast ultrasound anatomy and the importance of using ultrasound to plan injections
- How ultrasound can be used to avoid critical structures, and reduce the risk of fat embolism
- How to identify your cannula during ultrasound-guided fat grafting
- Best practices for fat injection, including the ideal placement and depth of fat grafts, guided by real-time ultrasound
- How to accurately pinpoint where fat is injected to maximize cosmetic outcomes
Join Dr. Salzman as he shares handheld ultrasound best practices for safe and accurate fat grafting procedures every time. Learn how to keep your patients safe and gain the confidence to deliver consistent and cosmetically pleasing results.
Since 2015, the number of butt lifts performed globally grew by 77.6%, giving rise to controversies and research studies regarding its safety due to the vascular structures present in the gluteal muscles. While plastic surgeons know to avoid intramuscular gluteal injections, even the most experienced physicians can accidentally place their instrument inside the muscle because they can’t see beneath the skin. Point-of-care ultrasound can easily identify fat and gluteal layers and can safely guide injections for the best results.
Breast augmentation is one of the most performed plastic surgery procedures in the US. Injecting fat into the subcutaneous tissue layer yields the best results, and when done at the time of implant placement, plays a role in improving the appearance of implant edges and cleavage.
Dr. Salzman will present a real case study demonstrating the benefits of ultrasound-guided fat grafting and perform live ultrasound scanning to showcase his techniques in real-time.
By integrating high-resolution ultrasound into your fat grafting workflows, you can enhance safety, achieve more predictable outcomes, and elevate patient satisfaction. Join Dr. Salzman and your host Shelley Guenther, sonographer and clinical marketing manager at Clarius, for this essential webinar to refine your skills in ultrasound-guided fat grafting and stay ahead in the evolving field of cosmetic surgery.
