Aesthetic Medicine India Expo and Conference brought together the who’s who of the aesthetic medicine practice, from medical practitioners to product and device manufacturers, on a common platform.
Aesthetic Medicine India Show, held on 15th and 16th of September, 2019, at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai, was applauded for its uniqueness and out-of-the-box approach.
