Abstract
Introduction: Resident-run facial aesthetic surgery clinics improve surgical proficiency but are absent in Canadian Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (OtoHNS) training. Objectives and Hypotheses: To evaluate resident and program director (PDs) perspectives on facial aesthetic training and the feasibility of resident-run clinics. We hypothesized residents would report inadequate training and support for clinics, while directors would express caution due to logistical barriers. Study Design: National, cross-sectional survey. Methods: Anonymous, bilingual electronic surveys were distributed to Canadian OtoHNS residents and PDs. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively; qualitative responses underwent thematic analysis. Results: Fifty residents and 11 PDs responded. Most residents (91%) reported performing ≤ 5 core procedures; 82% desired more exposure. Resident-run clinics were supported by 83% of residents but only 30% of PDs. PDs cited supervision, funding, and legal concerns. Conclusion: Significant training gaps exist. Resident-run clinics may enhance education but require structured supervision and institutional support.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
