About Prof. Dr. Karaaltin as QL Doctor
As the official QL Doctor for Endochor®, Prof. Dr. Karaaltin leads the integration of implant science into predictable surgical outcomes through:
- Clinical leadership: case selection, pre-op planning, implant choice (Forehead, Mid-Face, Ribbon, Transbleph), vector design, long-term follow-up
- Technique standardization: safety zones, fixation principles, documentation
- Outcome tracking: audits, photography, patient-reported outcomes
- Education & proctorship: mentoring in lab and in-theatre settings
Why Endochor® in Facial Surgery?
- Biodegradable PCL support, resorbs gradually while inducing collagen
- Multi-vector lifting, compatible with endoscopic, transbleph, or open techniques
- Anatomy-respectful anchorage, preserving nerve function and facial animation
- Hidden incisions, scar-minimal workflows
Hands-On Training with Prof. Dr. Karaaltin
Instructional training courses are offered with tailored modules, combining lectures, cadaver labs, and live surgical proctorship.
Available Modules
- Endochor® Forehead Lift
- Indications: brow ptosis, lateral brow descent, forehead laxity
- Approach: endoscopic temporal/paramedian, scalp-hidden incisions
- Skills: periosteal release, implant seating, cranial fixation
- Endochor® Mid-Face Lift
- Indications: malar descent, lid-cheek transition, nasolabial folds
- Approach: endoscopic mid-face; sub-SMAS/subperiosteal planes
- Skills: SOOF/malar support, vector mapping, anchoring
- Endochor® Ribbon for Lower Face & Neck
- Indications: neck laxity, cervico-mental angle, jowls
- Approach: submental/retroauricular; platysmal support
- Skills: hammock creation, fascial anchoring, vertical lift
- Transblepharoplasty Endochor® Implant for Brow Lift
- Indications: lateral brow ptosis, upper eyelid heaviness, subtle brow descent
- Approach: single hidden upper eyelid incision (combined with blepharoplasty)
- Skills: implant anchoring to lift and stabilize the brow, ensuring scarless correction and symmetry
- Double-Double Technique (Advanced)
- Dual implant synergy per side (brow + temporal)
- Multi-vector planning and nerve-safe corridors
- Integration Pathways
- Combining Endochor® with blepharoplasty, MACS-lift, High-SMAS, or revision strategies
Learning Objectives
By completing the training, surgeons will be able to:
- Select patients and plan vectors accurately
- Perform safe dissection through transbleph, endoscopic, or limited-incision approaches
- Achieve reliable implant fixation
- Prevent and manage complications
- Build structured follow-up and documentation pathways
Course Formats
- • Essentials (1 day): lectures + simulation lab
- Core Skills (2 days): cadaver lab + live demo (observer)
- Masterclass (3 days): cadaver lab + live OR proctorship
- On-site proctorship: mentorship at your own center
👉 Certification provided. CME/CPD credit may be arranged depending on venue.
