ONLY LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE – SECURE YOUR PLACE FOR OUR SECOND GRADUATE MAFAC
It is not an exaggeration to say that this upcoming Graduate MAFAC will be a profound learning experience. It is been specifically designed as an Advanced Course because of the requirement that attendees for this Course must have previously participated in a MAFAC Course.
This Course is not intended to cater for basic level anatomy learning, but to take your understanding to the next level. All participants will be attending the Course for a second and some for a third or fourth time, looking for a higher level of learning, beyond their experience from previous Courses and its’ application into their surgery. This Course will feature Internationally renowned Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr Andrew Jacono from New York City, USA.
Clinical application of the anatomy in aesthetic facial surgery is the focus of this Course. A renowned local and international Faculty will act as your Dissection Tutor, with the ration of 2-4 participants per tutor.
This unique Graduate Course will be a landmark event, as it is not planned to occur for another 2 years. For this reason we recommend to those who have registered an interest that they confirm their registration promptly as already the number of ‘expressions’ of interest well exceeds the limited number of remaining places available. If facial aesthetic surgery is your passion reserve your place now and register now

17th MAFAC – The Aesthetic Meeting 2018
New York, USA
Course #S1 Composite Facelifts Simplified through Modern Understanding of Deep Plane (spaces and ligaments) Anatomy – A Cadaver Workshop.
Space is limited to 52 delegates.
Start time: 7.30am
This is a compacted version of the renowned, two-day Melbourne Advanced Facial Anatomy Course designed for surgeons wanting to learn how to safely incorporate the latest advances in understanding of facial anatomy into their surgical practice.
The course is tightly structured as a guided, hands on, dissection program, with only 2 participants assigned to each cadaver head and an experienced dissection tutor from the Melbourne Course for each 4 participants.
The attendees readily learn to dissect within the ‘safety’ of the sub SMAS facial spaces, and then define the boundaries where the facial ligaments are located. Surgeons rapidly gain confidence from learning how predictably the facial nerve branches can be located intraoperatively using this anatomical approach.
This is a surgical course of facial dissection, in which correct surgical technique is demonstrated and only quality plastic surgery instruments are used.

17 – 18 October, 2017
16th MAFAC 2017
Melbourne, Australia
It is not an exaggeration to say that the upcoming Advanced MAFAC held in Melbourne 17th and 18th October 2017 will be a World first for an anatomy course. It is specifically designated as an Advanced Course because of the precondition that attendees for this Course must have previously participated in a MAFAC Course.
This Course is not designed to cater for a basic level of anatomy, but to take the understanding to the next level. All of the attendees will be attending the Course for a second and several for a third time, looking for a higher level of learning, beyond their experience from previous Courses and its’ application into their surgery.
The Course will feature two Internationally renowned plastic surgery anatomy teachers, Dr Giovanni Botti from Salo, Italy and Dr Daniel Labbé from Caen, France. The level of Faculty participation involvement will be as high as in all Courses.
Clinical application of the anatomy in aesthetic facial surgery is the focus of this Course. Accordingly, the international invited Faculty will perform demonstration surgery of their procedures. In addition, all participants will have the opportunity of practicing the placement of subperiosteal hydroxyapatite for skeletal augmentation at the several sites where it is most commonly used.
You can see why this will be a landmark event. It is a one-off, as it is not planned to have an Advanced Course every year. For this reason we recommend to those who have registered an interest that they confirm their registration promptly as already the number of ‘expressions’ of interest well exceeds the limited number of remaining places available. Reserve your place now.
