Another visit to Bologna Italy recently for the 22nd SIES or the International Congress of Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery was not just fruitful but fun as well. We had a full 3 days of talks on Algeness - the one and only Organic filler in the market. A 100% natural filler and totally biodegradable, it is a breakthrough in the filler and Medical aesthetics market. The first day we arrived (early morning) in Bologna we were whisked to our Hotel Carlton in the old city, to get checked in freshen up for the afternoon Algeness exclusive session.  What I like about the Algeness company, ATT, is that it has strong emphasis on training and teaching the doctors that are going to use the product and there is a lot of continuous training for experienced injectors. Despite feeling tired and sleepy from a 12 hour flight, I managed to stay awake throughout the 3 hours listening to experts talk about their personal experiences , new methods for the Algeness injections, new areas it can b...

Our centre was covered on the women's show Nona on TV3 recently with my interview regarding Coolsculpting. Watch it on You Tube.

The long awaited Coolsculpting applicators specifically for upper arm fats and inner thighs is finally out and was recently launched in Kuala Lumpur on 26th April 2013. It was something I was looking forward to as there were many patients requesting to treat these 2 areas which I had difficulty doing with the existing CoolMax (too big) , and CoolCurve(not straight enough) applicators. Also for Asian patients, who are physically smaller and shorter in stature, the previous applicators could not "fit" well enough onto the upper arms or inner thighs. Even when it did, it did fit in a nice and proportionate manner causing the final outcome to be irregular and uneven. Theses 2 new applicators are called "COOLFIT" for the upper arms fat, inner thighs and knee fat areas and "COOL CURVE + Plus" which is almost a half circle applicator meant for the more curved areas of the body like the banana folds, brabulges, armpit bulges and small flanks or love handle fats. ...

I recently attended a seminar on Heavy Metal Toxicity (HMT) organised by the Society of Advancement of Hormones and Healthy Aging Medicine Malaysia (SAHHAMM) and conducted by ACNEM with Dr Karel Hromek, a very experienced physician from Australia and a "guru" for Environmental and Nutritional Medicine. I had heard from patients about their remarkable treatment successes and  wanted to know more about how this amazing therapeutic arm works. Over the 2 day training session, I learnt more then I bargained for, got very excited about its whole potential and even sat for the certification exam at the end! So what is heavy metals and how does one get them?  Heavy Metals (HM) are Lead(Pb), Mercury, Arsenic, Cadmium, Aluminium, Copper and Iron. Excess exposure to these metals causes its toxicity but the symptoms associated with the slow accumulation of these toxic metals are multiple and non-specific therefore effects may not appear until later in life. Chron...
