Would an OMS fellow be eligible for the board of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery following graduation?

You mean a non-categorical intern? or a board certified OMFS?

Why don’t you contact the licensing body of facial plastics? They’ll give you the most accurate information. I do know that OMFS can do plastics. Some OMFS do a fellowship to do so as part of their practice.

OMS is able to apply to an independent plastic surgery residency to become a full scope plastic surgeon just as a general surgery resident would. This would be three years following OMS and be a completely different residency. Not a fellowship. The fellowships that OMS can do are within AAOMS or AACS, neither of which classify you as a "plastic surgeon" despite the same scope and similar training. I'm unsure if Dr. Saman's fellowship is through the AAFPRS as it is not listed on their website of fellowships yet he is a diplomat of AAFPRS. If it is not, the licensing body will not be able to provide me with information. Traditionally these fellowships are not open to OMS (Just ENT and Plastics) Thus, my original questions.
