4Course Objectives

This three-day workshop in Banff has been specially designed so that visiting plastic surgeons can learn more – and leave with the confidence that cannot come from a one-hour teaching course alone. Plastic surgeons will have the tools to achieve good, consistent, predictable results when they go home.

This workshop covers the principles of aesthetic breast surgery along with the practical applications in breast reduction, mastopexy, mastopexy-augmentation, augmentation and breast re-reduction. We cover the latest techniques in labiaplasty and proven results in drainless abdominoplasties with an almost zero seroma rate. We have live models for marking purposes each day along with photographs to practice on (and the original markings and results that were achieved on those same patients). There will be videos for teaching and these will be available to attendees for use at home. The workshop is in Banff, which is located in the beautiful Canadian Rocky Mountains and is limited to 15 attendees so that there is more personalized learning and lots of discussions. The workshop includes two receptions, breakfast and lunch each day, and one full restaurant dinner and take out “in town”.

Accommodations – Banff Park Lodge:

Conveniently located in the Town of Banff, steps away from the glacier-fed Bow River, Banff Park Lodge is a full-service resort hotel and conference centre. Here visitors can experience the best of both worlds: the peace and solitude of a quiet location, yet quick access to a livelier scene in downtown Banff. They have 211 spacious guest rooms or suites and enjoy the fresh alpine air and exceptional views of the surrounding mountain scenes from your private balcony. With amenities, such as an indoor pool, eucalyptus-infused steam room, exercise facilities and whirlpool.

Words from past attendees

Dear Dr. Hall-Findlay,

 

I wanted to thank you for everything during the Banff Breast & Body Workshop! It is very evident that you not only have a passion for teaching, but that you are very good at it. It’s not an easy task to make complex topics that are comfortable to you equally understandable to others, and you certainly do! You were a fantastic host and this did not go unappreciated. More importantly for me however, was the opportunity to meet and get to know you as a person. In a field where we are often surrounded by people who can be arrogant or unapproachable, you are the exact opposite. I admire you and value your humility and down-to-earth nature, despite being an international figure. Thank you for helping us have someone to look up to.

 

– Previous Attendee

Thank you for hosting such a wonderful conference. I have used your textbook for years now, but listening to your lectures and marking the models really brought it all together. I did two vertical reductions the week I returned and they went very well! It was obvious the time and effort you have put into refining your techniques and preparing your lectures. Thank you for sharing not only your successes, but also your mistakes. I learned so much from you and our group discussions. Hopefully you will continue to host this event. Banff is such a breathtaking location!
