Medical Aesthetics is a developing clinical subspecialty that uses FDA- approved minimally invasive cosmetic treatments to enhance patients’ physical appearance as an alternative to plastic surgery. They include laser hair removal, microdermabrasion, Hyaluronic injections and dermal fillers.
Medical aesthetics are growing in popularity. The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery reported that 83.5 percent of the 11 million aesthetic procedures performed in 2012-13 were non-surgical.
