He also performs Abdominal Marking, known as HD liposuction, with great success. He pioneered the use of famous anti-aging procedures like Facial Lifting using the threads technique, which is a non-invasive method highly praised by many patients and surgeons around the world.
For several years, Dr. Rojas has been a member of several prestigious conferences and trainings carried out by the best plastic and cosmetic surgeons in the world, such as The Facial Sculptor Training by Dr. Terino or The Anti-Aging Medicine Board Review Phlebology Training Course in Las Vegas, Nevada, or the most innovative and advanced trends in Vaser Liposuction, Fat transfer and abdominal marking dictated by Dr Alfredo Hoyos, in Colombia, among many others.
