    GC Aesthetics, based in Dublin, is the parent company of both the UK's only

breast implant manufacturer, Nagor, and French brand, Eurosilicone. In recent

years, it has cemented itself as one of the world's most popular implant

brands; it is now the number one selling brand in Brazil, Mexico and Spain, and

is set to reach number one position in France by the end of 2016. Dr Heden,

known for having developed several new techniques applying to the use of

form-stable anatomical breast implants, has chosen to work alongside GC

Aesthetics as they share the common vision of improving patient satisfaction

and surgical outcomes. The lectures will focus on this, as well as providing

surgeons with new surgical and pre-planning skills.

    Dr Heden says:

    "I am delighted to be working with GC Aesthetics, with the common goal of

improving the implant selection process, preoperative markings and surgical

technique for surgeons, and I am very much looking forward to presenting the

series of lectures at the Science for Excellence Educational Series. It is of

utmost importance that surgeons are kept up-to-date on new techniques, as well

as being aware of ways in which outcomes and satisfaction can be improved upon."

    Dr. Per Heden studied under the eminent microsurgeon, Marko Godina, and

subsequently became the driving force for establishing microsurgery in

Stockholm. He is the author of over 50 scientific papers, and is often asked to

give lectures at national and international plastic surgery conferences and

events. Dr. Heden is the founder of Akademikliniken, Scandinavia's largest

private plastic surgery hospital.

    GC Aesthetics' Chief Executive, Ayse Kocak, who is the industry's

first-ever female CEO, adds:

    "Working alongside such a renowned surgeon, who also uses our products, is

a real honour for us. We share a common vision of the importance of patient

satisfaction, and by working together to deliver this series of lectures, we

are certain that we can help with the provision of new skills for surgeons."
