IAPAM Publishes 2013 Fall Dates for it Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums with Botox Training

With the impending reductions in insurance reimbursements in the US, it is more important than ever to educate physicians on the benefits of adding concierge medicine modalities to their practice. Physician need to offer cash-based procedures coupled with a weight loss program to achieve financial success. The IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums were specifically designed as a "one-stop" program to add the top 5 non-insurance based medical treatments to a practice, or to start a new medspa. Today, the IAPAM announces the fall 2013 dates for its respected Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums.

Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (August 12, 2013) -- The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) reported that "surgical procedures grew only by 1% in 2012, but non-surgical treatments, such as botox, dermal fillers and chemical peels grew by 6%." Therefore, physicians considering the launch of a medspa are making a wise business decision. The International Association for Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine's (IAPAM) Aesthetic Medicine Symposium is designed by physicians for physicians to assist in adding aesthetic medicine modalities, including botox, to an existing practice, or launching a medical spa. This 2 day educational event showcases the most important clinical and business aesthetic medicine training. Physicians who complete the IAPAM's Symposium have a competitive advantage.

Over 950 physicians, as well as their medspa managers, registered nurses, and assistants, have attended the IAPAM's hands-on Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums and hCG Training seminars. The fall dates have been announced for the Aesthetic Medicine Symposiums in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona:

September 14-15, 2013
October 26-27, 2013
December 7-8, 2013

A preview of the Aesthetic Medicine Symposium with Botox training can be viewed on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Of-jMxVNLOY.

The Symposium provides physicians:

- dedicated instruction from board-certified dermatologists, who are true experts of the skin and cosmetic injectables.
- hands-on practice in the best injection techniques.
- botox training at a multi-million dollar medical practice, not in a hotel room.
- an environment that does not allow exhibitors, giving doctors more time for education.
- the opportunity to attend the Symposium's Aesthetic Practice Startup Business Workshop on the Monday after each Symposium, a program highlighting the latest information on medspa business development and social media marketing as taught by Harvard Business School.
- the opportunity to attend the IAPAM's Clean Start hCG for Weight Loss Program on the Friday before each Symposium, which covers hCG for weight loss, prescription appetite suppressants, ketogenic diet based programs, meal replacements and B6/12 injections.

Dates for the upcoming Clean Start hCG for Weight Loss Training, in Scottsdale, Arizona, have also been announced:

September 13, 2013
October 25, 2013
December 6, 2013
