Awards and Recognition

In May 2021, the distinguished Canadian Cosmetic Surgeon, Dr. Mulholland, made the decision to retire from active Plastic Surgery practice after an illustrious 25-year career.

 

Having co-founded InMode MD electrosurgical in the United States, Dr. Mulholland has shifted his focus to contribute to the advancement of the industry in innovative ways.

 

Despite leaving the operating room behind, he passionately imparts his vast knowledge and experience through the BoomerangFX book, an informative webinar series, and by endorsing top-tier SaaS practice management software such as BoomerangFX, another of his entrepreneurial ventures.

 

In pursuit of broadening the global impact of InMode technology and BoomerangFX Software, Dr. Mulholland embarked on a new journey in 2022, relocating to London, England.
