EDITORIAL

After a hugely successful Medical Aesthetics Convention, which took place alongside the launch of our first Aesthetic Medicine printed publication in South Africa, we are please to bring you another issue jam-packed with informative content. From business-related articles to clinical reviews, news, product launches and trending insights, this issue is geared to inform, inspire, and educate.

In this, the Bumper Body issue, we focus on a multi-faceted and holistic approach to weight management. Dr Olivier addresses the systemic disruptions that can lead to weight gain, the red flags to be aware of, and the holistic approach needed for effective body re-composition, while Dr Opperman provides a critical analysis and targeted approach to addressing all underlying factors. Additionally, we provide clinical insights on microwave energy abdominal fat reduction, body firming topical contouring creams and buttock volumisation.

From a business perspective, we share 10 insider secrets to give your clinic the aesthetic edge. If you were not able to visit the Convention, we report on the major highlights and share feedback from exhibitors and visitors alike.

We always welcome your comments, questions, and insights and wish you every success in the coming months leading into summer.
