“Hi! Welcome to IMCAS Americas 2019!
I’ll be discussing on Focused Ultrasound that literally explode Fat Cells in the Subcutaneous Tissue.
Clinical studies have been published using it as “stand alone” with no holistic slimming program. I will show that better results are achieved if done in Slimming Centers with additional combined treatments (EBDs) including Obesity Management. I look forward in sharing with you my 21 years of experience in Non-invasive Aesthetic Slimming.
See you then!”
