IAPAM Comments on the Importance of Pharmaceutical hCG

Wedding planner — Tue, 27 Sep 2011 18:56:30 +0000

The IAPAM reports on the dangers of improperly sourced hCG for medical weight loss programs, and educates physicians on how to safely source hCG, and how to effectively and profitably deliver an hCG Diet and Weight Loss Program to their patients. One critical success factor is to attend expert training through programs like the IAPAM’s hCG Training Program ( www.hcgtraining.com ). Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) for weight loss is everywhere on the internet. One cannot google “hCG” or “hCG diet” without seeing these sensational headlines: “Lose 1-2 LBS/DAY Buy hCG,” “Lose 23 lbs in 23 Days For Only $70,” or “Buy hCG Here – Save Up To 72%.” However, as Jeff Russell, Executive Director of the IAPAM comments, “it is quite amazing that so many people want to put their long-term health at risk by answering an internet or Facebook ad, or watching a YouTube video on hCG. It is equally disconcerting that so many physicians launch hCG Medical Weight Management Programs, without being properly trained in administering an hCG Protocol, sourcing hCG, understanding patient selection criteria and patient testing, and the common medical contraindications for hCG.” (more…)

Richard Paduda, an athletic man with a dark, spiky coiffure, does not look like your typical user of Latisse, the prescription eyelash-enhancing solution that has been endorsed by Brooke Shields and Claire Danes. That’s because he has used it not on his eyelashes, which are fairly lush, but on his hairline, which he noticed last year was beginning to recede. “I just put three or four drops on each side of my temple once a day,” said Mr

The International Association For Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine ( IAPAM ) has surveyed its membership, its medical faculty, and has consulted with numerous experts in aesthetic medicine, to develop a forecast for the top aesthetic medicine treatments or trends physicians can expect to see in 2011.
