The Importance of Hands-On Learning in Plastic Surgery
Dr. Steven Fagien
World-renowned cosmetic oculoplastic surgeon Dr. Steven Fagien highlights the unmatched value of hands-on learning at the 2026 Dallas Cosmetic Medicine & Rhinoplasty Meeting. He explains that while watching lectures and reviewing diagrams is helpful, real understanding comes from performing techniques firsthand in a controlled, supportive environment.
The meeting’s cadaver labs give attendees the chance to observe world experts demonstrating procedures, then practice those same methods under direct guidance. This structure allows participants to refine their skills, gain confidence, and apply the lessons immediately to their practices.
Dr. Fagien notes that one of the greatest benefits is learning how to recognize and avoid potential pitfalls before operating on patients. The hands-on format transforms theory into practical expertise, making it an invaluable training experience for aesthetic professionals.
