Piedmont Plastic Surgery and Dermatology Surgeon Selected to Attend Breast Implant Preceptorship in Sweden

Charlotte, NC, August 18, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Daniel Ness, M.D., a board certified plastic surgeon with Piedmont Plastic Surgery and Dermatology in Charlotte and Gastonia, was one of a few select doctors in the United States invited to attend a preceptorship in Sweden about the latest breast implant technology using contour profile gel (CPG) implants.

The specialized training was led by internationally renowned plastic surgeon Charles Randquist, M.D. The CPG implants, which are largely used throughout much of the world, may offer some significant advantages over implants currently used in the United States. They are currently in the FDA approval process.

“Only four breast surgeons were invited to attend this preceptorship,” said Dr. Ness. “It was a real honor to have been included in this group of surgeons who are nationally known in their field. The research done in the medical field is quite phenomenal and having the opportunity to be part of such a small group from the US to thoroughly study this significant breast implant technology was quite a privilege.”
