Over the past two decades, Charles Randquist has trained and lectured globally on various aesthetic procedures. Thanks to his extensive experience with form-stable, anatomical implants, his primary focus has been on primary and reconstructive breast surgery. Throughout the years, he has conducted studies on implants from various manufacturers, seeking to understand the complexity at multiple levels, as well as the effects of different texturing, gels, shapes, and surgical techniques on outcomes. He has also lectured worldwide on various cosmetic procedures during this time
He is currently one of only three surgeons outside the United States participating in an FDA study for Establishment Labs and their Motiva Implants.
Dr. Randquist consults at Victoriakliniken in Saltsjöbaden, just 15 minutes outside of Stockholm. Situated in the heart of the archipelago, the clinic offers a discreet retreat that brings peace to both body and mind. For added comfort, patients have the option to stay for a shorter or longer period before and after their procedure. Personalized meals and services are also provided.
Lectures & Training
For the past 13 years, Dr. Randquist has lectured worldwide on cosmetic plastic surgery. He primarily teaches and trains doctors from across the globe in breast augmentation surgery. As part of this work, he performs demonstration surgeries and conducts training courses both in Sweden and internationally.
Dr. Randquist has since 2005, offered training programs called “How to Run Your Best Breast Practice.” The training combines demonstration surgeries, lectures on surgical techniques, and practice management, all held at Victoriakliniken in Stockholm.
Dr. Randquist has since 2007, traveled the world conducting courses for Allergan Corp. in countries including Canada, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, Hong Kong, and Singapore.
In 2009, Dr. Randquist developed the first “Clinic of Excellence” in collaboration with the KKH Department of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in Singapore. Partnering with Allergan Corp., the clinic offers training and preceptorships on “How to run your best breast practice,” including demonstration surgeries for doctors from Asia and Australia. These sessions are held regularly, twice a year.
Since 2009, he has also been working with Mentor/Johnson & Johnson, offering doctors from around the world the opportunity to come to Victoriakliniken in Stockholm to participate in the training and preceptorship, “How to run your best breast practice.”
In 2015-2016, this initiative was expanded to include lectures in collaboration with Sientra and Motiva, two other major implant manufacturers.
This means that Dr. Randquist is engaged by four of the largest implant manufacturers to provide training on how to best use their products.
In 2009, Dr. Randquist launched the first “Asian Breast Aesthetic Symposium” (ABAS) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
