You want to improve you look, but you have no idea where to start. In this article, we’ll outline how aesthetic medicine can help you achieve your beauty goals. But first, a quick definition of what it is.  

Aesthetic Medicine Definition  

Aesthetic medicine refers to various specialties related to the process of modifying the physical appearance of a patient. Also referred to as non-surgical cosmetic treatments, aesthetic medicine can help enhance a person’s facial and body appearance. Specialists have carried out approximately 8 million cosmetic procedures since 2009.  

Types of aesthetic treatments 

Here is an outline of different types of aesthetic treatment:  

Laser treatments- The painless removal of hair from different parts of the body. Laser treatment can also remedy conditions such as acne, pigmentation marks, rough dull skin and enlarged pores.  

Micro needling- This is also known as skin needling and is a cosmetic procedure which involves puncturing the skin repeatedly with tiny, sterile needles. It is used to treat skin problems such as acne and scarring. 

Anti-wrinkle treatment- This aesthetic procedure involves reducing, masking or preventing signs of skin aging. Among the common signs of an aging skin include laxity, wrinkles and photoaging (redness, brown discoloration, yellowing, abnormal growths and poor texture).  

Dermal fillers- This is an effective anti-aging method. It restores lost volume in order to soften the creases and enhance facial contour. In a short period of time it produces natural looking results. 

Medical-grade skincare also known as cosmeceutical skincare. They are used in specific medical conditions and needs. They offer both medical and cosmetic benefits. They have positive effects on the skin. 

Skin resurfacing treatment is the most effective way to reduce signs of aging, correct dark spots and fade scarring. 

When to see an Aesthetic Medicine Specialist.  

Let’s face it, many people yearn to retain the youthful and appealing appearance as long as possible. You can consider visiting an aesthetic specialist if:  

1.  You see physical signs of aging: Aesthetic medicine helps increases collagen production - fiber protein which provides support to the skin tissues, and slows metabolism thereby leading to excessive production of unwanted fat. In doing so, this procedure slows aging.  

1. You want to boost your self-esteem: Aesthetic treatment can help boost the mental and physical capabilities of patients. When you have a better physical appearance, most often your mood and self-confidence improves.  

1. You are diagnosed with certain medical conditions: Aesthetic treatment is considered a preventive or management measure for medical conditions such as cancer, hormonal imbalances, diabetes, and allergies.
