Fellowship Program

Dr. Maas is a Fellowship Director for the The Fellowship Program under the auspices of the Educational and Research Foundation for the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Fellowship directors are recognized authorities in the teaching and practice of facial plastic surgery.

The Fellowship Program is internationally known for being the finest post-graduate program for training and educating facial plastic surgeons. Since 1969, the program has helped 1,300+ specialized experts become leaders in the field of plastic surgery, advancing patient care, refinement of surgical techniques, and developing and educating others about new procedures.

The objectives of the fellowship program are to:

• Provide an outstanding academic opportunity for the acquisition of specialized knowledge and skills in facial plastic surgery;
• Develop trained specialists who will contribute to the ongoing development of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery;
• Foster development of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery educators, especially in residency programs; and
• Encourage the development of new skills and knowledge in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery through basic research and clinical trials.

All fellows must have completed an residency program in otolaryngology or plastic surgery, which is approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education or be board-certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology or the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
