Dr. Kaminer presented the audience of practicing dermatologists and plastic surgeons an overview of the "acoustic subcision" generated by RAP treatments. He discussed the dose ranging effect with RAP indicating an increased effect from longer treatments with the device. He explained that subcision of the hardened septa is the most effect way to eliminate the dimples and ridges associated with cellulite.
Dr. Chris Capelli, President, CEO and co-founder of Soliton, commented, "Dr. Kaminer is one of three founding physicians at SkinCare Physicians in Chestnut Hill, MA. He is one of our country's preeminent dermatologists, cosmetic surgeons and researchers. He chairs the Soliton Scientific Advisory Board and has led multiple clinical trials exploring the use of our RAP technology. We are honored to have Michael present his thoughts to the symposium attendees."
Dr. Kaminer stated: "Having led the clinical development of Cellfina, the only treatment with FDA clearance for producing long-term reduction of cellulite, I am particularly aware of the unmet need in the treatment of cellulite. Having a non-invasive alternative treatment with lasting results could provide a real benefit for patients while also expanding the breadth of services offered by clinicians."
