Welcome to the very first A2 Trade Magazine – a print and digital magazine especially for medical professionals and the aesthetic and anti-ageing trade industry.
As you may or may not already know, A2 Aesthetic & Anti-Ageing Magazine is a quarterly print magazine (March, June, September and December) sold in Exclusive Books, CNA and Spar stores nationwide.
It’s the ONLY print and digital magazine in South Africa solely dedicated to aesthetics, anti-ageing, integrative medicine, cosmetic dentistry and cosmetic surgery.
While this “normal” A2 Magazine is semi-focused toward trade and largely focused toward consumers and educating them on new and current treatments, procedures and quality products in the industry, we realised we needed to create a version of A2 Magazine that was solely dedicated to our medical doctors, aesthetic clinics, aesthetic salons and trade industry professionals…
Introducing the A2 Trade Magazine – an extension of the normal A2 Magazine
So here we are… for our very first trade edition, we chose to partner with and include the Aesthetic Medicine Congress of South Africa (AMCSA) congress magazine within this trade edition.
The first half of the magazine is your A2 Trade focused articles and news from us. The second half serves as the official AMCSA 2016 congress magazine including the congress programme, speaker abstracts, exhibitor’s list, plus more.
