Dr. Robert Haber—an esteemed faculty member at many ISHRS events, one of our “last men standing” who has never missed a Congress, and recipient of the ISHRS 2023 Lifetime Achievement Award—shares his experience attending last year’s Live Surgery Workshop in Denver.

“I never go away from a meeting like this without learning something new,” says Dr. Haber.

From real-time surgeries to direct Q&A with operating surgeons, our Live Surgery Workshops offer rare, behind-the-scenes access to expert hair transplantation techniques and advanced instrumentation.
