What attracted to you adding medical aesthetics to your practice in addition to vein care?
I saw a need to provide a more patient-centric approach to medical aesthetics, with open and honest communication, empathy, reassurance, and guidance. I genuinely want to please people, make the quality of their lives better, and develop long-term patient relationships.
What trends and innovations are you excited about in medical aesthetics?
The current trend has been noninvasive correction with lasers, when possible, with little to no downtime or discomfort. Patient satisfaction has been extremely high. And younger people are interested in maintaining their youthful appearance, taking advantage of our less invasive procedures when seeking medical aesthetic services. Additionally, men are visiting us. It’s no longer considered taboo for a man to want to feel confident about the way he looks. More and more men are opting to have treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, laser treatments and hair restoration to look and feel their best.
