Cosmetic Medicine:
Who Is It For?
So, who is cosmetic medicine for? I like to say, really, it’s just
about everyone. When I first started in the industry, when I
was just feeling my way round, my biggest worry was that
number one, I didn’t want to get hooked on the treatments
and look completely unnatural. I think that is everyone’s fear
when they dip their toes in. We are all exposed to these over
frozen, over puffed celebrities and real house wives and it
does scare people off the treatments. They think that it has to
be all or nothing.
When I was looking for a good mentor in the cosmetic
medicine field I called Dr. Chan, just because I found him on
Google like almost other people do. I asked him what sorts of
patients are having these procedures done? He said Mary, it’s
everyone. You don’t realize until you get into the industry now.
It’s not, sure the rich and famous do, but it’s not just the rich
and famous. It really is a treatment for everyone these days
because everyone likes to feel good.
Certainly I can tell you that from my patient cohort, I have
patients between the ages of eighteen and eighty. I have men
and women, I have tradesmen and mums. I have
grandmothers, professionals and non-professional people and
so it really is something that goes across the board. So I have
sort of put most people into this category.
I think something that draws people to cosmetics is that they
want to look like themselves but one day they look in the
mirror and they don’t recognize the face looking back at them.
It might be because you’ve had a stressful time, or an illness
or because it’s just your genes and you got to go the way your
mother or your grandmother. This is where cosmetic medicine
has come a long way because we can achieve natural results.
It really is something that everyone can be a part of these
days.
