According to the IAPAM, muscle contouring, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) facials, non-surgical nose jobs, and lip injections were the most significant treatments that defined the medical aesthetic industry in 2019. This year, technological, medical, and scientific advancements are paving the way for more low-risk and pain-free procedures that allow patients to enjoy instant results with little to no downtime. Read on to see what your favorite celebs are getting this year:
Preemptive Treatments
A study by the American cosmetic industry reveals that the average age at which patients start getting medical beauty treatments has become lower. Instead of waiting for the wrinkles to show up, people visit their aesthetic clinic in Singapore early on to take pre-emptive measures and keep their appearance looking younger for longer. Amongst these preventative procedures is the PRP hair treatments.
Six years after her sister Kim Kardashian made the vampire facial famous, Kourtney Kardashian tried the same procedure. She had platelet-rich plasma from her own body injected into her scalp. The treatment aims to repair damaged hair follicles and, at the same time, encourage fuller, thicker growth.
As for the body, experts agree that the same preventative injectables that defined the past decade will still dominate the market this year. Neuromodulators that have anti-aging effects, like Botox, Xeomin, Jeuveau, and Dysport, continue to gain traction and attract the attention of younger demographics, particularly women in their 20s and 30s.
Facial Optimization
Kylie Jenner’s signature pout will still be in 2020. Patients want to achieve that perfect pout without putting on lipsticks, so they seek bespoke lip augmentation to make their pout more natural-looking. Pair it with a Masseter Botox treatment that slims the jaw, and you’ll get your ideal face shape like your favorite celebrities.
Skin Improvement
Picosecond laser, one of the latest lasers on the market, is an all-around solution for skin rejuvenation and brightening. It reduces the appearance of acne scars, brown spots, fine lines, melasma, and even unwanted tattoos with minimal downtime, which makes it the perfect treatment for someone who’s just getting started with medical aesthetics.
Body Contouring
With more and more celebrities sharing their workout videos on social media, more and more fans are getting motivated to get active and create their own fitness goals. But if you have a love-hate relationship with the gym and want instant results, non-surgical body contouring procedures are your best friend.
You can try body sculpting options with no downtime, like EmSculpt, to define and strengthen your abs and tone and lift your buttocks. For best results, seek complementary services, such as LED or infrared therapy. For those who prefer refined muscles that can’t be achieved by hitting the gym for weeks, technologies, such as FlexSculpt, is for you. Experts consider this as a lunchtime treatment that can replace liposuction.
Lastly, if overly filled buttocks are your thing, join the Brazilian Butt Lift craze. For your cellulite, stretch marks, and sagging skin, of course, you always have the option to customizable body injections, like Sculptra.
