Dear BBL Surgeon,
Thank you for participating in the World Association of Gluteal Surgeons Online 
BBL Safety study and testing module.

We hope you find this study module helpful in provoking thought processes regarding
safety in performing BBL’s. We want to continue to improve on this platform. Any
comments and suggestions for improvement are welcomed. Please send
to [email protected] .

There are 19 questions followed by related reference material. Please answer each
question after reading the material or viewing the video. Please allow a couple of
minutes for all of the articles and videos to be loaded when beginning the
module (Otherwise, it will keep taking you back to question 1).

You can open the reference material to full page by clicking on the box on the right
upper corner. This feature is only offered on a PC computer and not on an iPhone/iPad.
While you can complete the program on your phone, you can probably do it faster if you
do it on the computer. 

At the end of the module, you will be able to print a certificate for completion. This is the only time given to print the certificate. You may want to take a screen shot of the certificate or download it to your computer for your record. 

Please start the module with "Buy" button below.

Respectfully,
