The new clinic will provide a wide range of clinical cosmetic treatments from Botox and Sculptra; to luxurious facials and full body massages.

Perfectly situated on Swansea’s Kingsway, the clinic is only seconds away from ample parking, the city centre’s top retail outlets and, of course the renowned Andrew Price salon. So, after a hard day’s shopping you can call in for a haircut and tint followed by a relaxing facial or cosmetic treatment.

The new salon is currently under development and we’ll be announcing the launch date very soon, so watch this space.

Following the disappointment of the American Association of Dermatology meeting in San Francisco, it was very refreshing to attend IMCAS Asia in Thailand. With its wonderful, simple and efficient organization, as well as its well balanced program of education and new product demonstration, it certainly demonstrated that in this instance the French can certainly show the rest of the world how to run a conference. The lectures, which contained a perfect mixture of new innovation and evidence, lifted the gloom that I had felt after returning from San Francisco. (more…)

BACD meeting in Monte Carlo and ‘The Madonna Lift’

Friday, November 20th, 2009

The meeting of the British Association of Cosmetic Doctors in Monte Carlo was excellent as usual, with the ongoing education of members to the fore, as always. We also had confirmation that our ideas about which technology is best for a fat removal was correct – watch this space.

The next important meeting for us will be the annual IMCAS meeting in Paris in January 2010, when this year we will also be taking two of our most promising employees, Stefanie Williams and Karen Huxley with us, so that they to can gain invaluable experience of what is new in the Cosmetic Medicine world. As a clinic we feel that such investment in our staff is essential if we are to offer the best treatments available to our clients.

P.S. ‘The Madonna Lift’:

Dr Katz in New York, has apparently developed the ‘Madonna lift’ for the eyes, a treatment we have been carrying out very successfully for over a year. So for our patients who have had CO2 Fractional laser resurfacing around the eyes, you’ve had the ‘Madonna Lift’, before Madonna had it herself!!
