Horizons Wellness Academy |
|
So many questions, so little time! Many patients are searching for natural ways to lose weight, improve energy, and feel better, and yet trying to address these concerns in a 30 minute office visit is impossible.
Dr. Aslami has been practicing obstetrics and gynecology for 20 years, has been a student of functional and integrative medicine for 9 years, and became board certified in obesity management in 2021.
In an effort to serve her patients better, Dr. Aslami has created an online academy to provide in-depth knowledge, tools and training to help you attain your health goals.

Body Contouring |
Did you know we offer body contouring in our Bridgewater office? These treatments can reduce stubborn belly fat, shrink annoying love handles, and tighten loose skin that appears after losing weight. Most people require a series of treatments (not just 1) to obtain desired results

Laser Hair Removal |
Permanent hair removal is possible! Laser hair removal in our Bridgewater office is one of our most popular services. Most people require 6-10 treatments spread out over several months. Buying packages can save you time and money, and winter is the best time to start laser hair removal and enjoy a summer of no shaving!

Cellulite Reduction |
Cellulite is a type of scar tissue, and can be a frustrating process to reverse. Most people need repetitive treatments to smooth out the appearance of cellulite, followed by occasional maintenance treatments. We offer cellulite reduction packages using a unique radio-frequency energy device.

|
Wrinkle Reduction |
Wrinkles occur over time due to loss of collagen below the skin surface. Adequate nutrition, hydration, sleep and toxin avoidance are necessary to reduce and delay the appearance of wrinkles. But once they appear, smoothing them out can be challenging. Using radio-frequency energy to heat the deep tissue layers, we obtain beautiful results without injecting fillers. Most people require a series of treatments to reverse existing wrinkles, and then occasional maintenance treatments.
