Viora has been spreading the word around the globe, participating in a number of conferences and exhibitions. At the end of October, Viora participated in EADV’s 20th Congress in Lisbon, Portugal and we were very pleased to have Dr. Klaus Fritz of Germany participate in the Reaction™ roundtable and workshop. His technology presentation Reaction in the Spectrum of Body Contouring was well-received by the packed room of attendees.
Viora also held a press conference at EADV and was excited to have two contestants from The Biggest Loser reality show discuss their experiences with ReFit. Filipe Matias, lost 70kg and won Portugal’s first season and Efrat Gabay came in 3rd place in Israel’s recent version, having lost 52kg. TV Mais in Portugal reported on the event in depth – to see their coverage click here and here.
Immediately following EADV, Viora criss-crossed the globe and flew into Asia to participate in Cosmoprof Hong Kong. An important event on the aesthetics tradeshow circuit, Viora displayed a beautiful booth and showcased our entire product line.

Talking About Skin
Skin care is important to our well-being and November was designated “Healthy Skin Month” by the American Academy of Dermatologists to emphasize that point. Skin has many functions and it’s important to keep it well-cared for, throughout the year. For a better understanding of how the skin works to protect you, visit Viora’s blog.
