There are two different types of spas where an aesthetician offers services: a beauty spa or a medical spa. Both types of spas offer basic facial and body treatments; whereas, a medical spa also offers injections and deeper chemical peels.
“There has been an explosion in popularity for botox injections. It has grown exponentially,” Dr. Brou says. “Even the simple injections of dermal fillers, such as Restylane, are popular because there is more publicity for these services. People are more aware of these procedures.”
Often, doctors with successful dermatology or plastic surgery practices will incorporate medical aesthetics into their practice. In these cases, a doctor is on hand to administer, or as a minimum, supervise these procedures.
Dr. Brou says that he has noticed a clientele increase in medical procedures. “People are a lot more conscious about their looks and health in general.”
Medical aesthetics can be used in conjunction with medical services.
“There are a lot of lasers and other highly technical procedures that offer improvements without surgery, which is much more appealing to the general public,” Dr. Brou says. “Procedures are more affordable and it’s safer.”
The aesthetics industry has grown rapidly over the years with an increase in clientele and in offered procedures. People are willing to pay top dollar to maintain healthy, younger looking skin.
Now that the facial bliss is complete, the client stirs from the relaxing and soothing environment. As the client removes the fluffy white robe and slips back into his/her regular clothes the feeling of rejuvenation, and renewal is overwhelming. With soft glowing skin, the client begins the process of entering the real world once again.
