Here is what some of the attendees had to say about the event:

"I would like to thank you for the opportunity to attend the Fotona meeting. This meeting was just what I needed to re-enforce the initial training with the laser purchase. It was helpful to have the change to interface with other users and ask questions. Thank you so much!" S.B., RN, Aesthetician

"I have known Aesthetic Lasers Inc. for 4 years now. I still learned a lot by attending the seminar! New technologies, new techniques. The networking with other Fotona owners to hear what they are doing gave me numerous ideas for my own practice." M.H., MD

"I am most impressed with the quality of science behind Fotona and which drives the success of the procedures. The conference was not only educational and run very well addressing all aspects of my aesthetic practice, but also an excellent networking opportunity that I feel will be invaluable." K.T., MD.
