Core Physicians
Are you a Core Physician in private practice, frustrated with dwindling healthcare insurance reimbursements, or struggling with medical school debt? Perhaps your patients are requesting that you offer neurotoxins or botulinum toxins or other aesthetic services? By offering Aesthetic Medicine treatments to your patients, you can grow powerful revenue streams and increase patient satisfaction.
Aesthetic Medicine is the practice of both surgical and non-surgical treatments to improve and maintain the cosmetic appearance of the face and body.
Over the past 25 years, exciting technological developments have increased the accessibility of minimally invasive aesthetic treatments. These treatments yield compelling results without the expense and long recovery times typically associated with traditional plastic surgery.
In addition, the rise of neurotoxins or botulinum toxins and Injectable Fillers has changed the way society approaches aging. Younger generations are embracing injectables as preventative anti-aging procedures or to enhance what nature gave them.
According to Allergan’s 360° Aesthetics Report, 82% of millennial consumers, aged 21-35, believe injectable treatments are socially acceptable, and a whopping 98% of millennial consumers worldwide would consider a professional treatment at some point in their lives.
Furthermore, the development of lasers and light-based energy devices to treat a myriad of cosmetic concerns, from excess fat, unwanted body hair, tattoos, and skin imperfections, contributes to the global aesthetic medicine market’s projected worth of USD 103.4 billion by 2026.
