As per insurance coverage, when the surgery is being performed to improve physical appearance only, it is usually not covered by insurance. However, if the surgery is more reconstructive and is needed to improve the function of a body part, it may be covered. Since insurance coverage varies, you will need to check with your own plan for specifics.

There are a number of financing options available with which many people are able to afford aesthetic enhancement.

Aesthetic

Aesthetic procedures are performed on normal body parts in order to enhance or change its appearance using minimally invasive techniques. Many people find that aesthetic procedures can improve their self-esteem and give them a more positive body image, with little or no down time.

Cosmetic surgery is a unique discipline of medicine focused on enhancing appearance through surgical (invasive) techniques. Cosmetic surgery is usually performed on areas which function properly but lack aesthetic appeal. Cosmetic surgical procedures are invasive, hence longer recovery period as compared to aesthetic procedures.

Reconstructive plastic surgery is performed on a body part that is abnormal because of birth defects, trauma, developmental difficulties, infection, cancer, or other disease. It is often performed to restore or improve function to the affected body part but may also be done for physical appearance reasons as well.

While skin care and beauty treatments are at the forefront of both, the biggest difference between a Beauty Salon and an Aesthetics Clinic is the treatments that you can expect to receive there.

Clinics fall under the purview of the Ministry of Health (MOH), and are bound by guidelines that ensure aesthetic clinics don’t over-sell or over-promise, or use words which are promotional. This is really to ensure that clinics give various options, explain some of the benefits/risks, and allow clients to make informed choices. Botox, demal-fillers and many other aesthetic treatments at clinics are done by doctors, who understand and recommend treatment protocols based on experience, hence you are sure of safety.

Spas and beauty salons are not bound by the same MOH guidelines. And that means, these treatments tend to deliver to you an experience of relaxation and general wellness to soothe and unwind, rather than being classified as an actual medical treatment. They do not require authorisation and approval from MOH .

The ideal aesthetic treatment candidate is someone who is physically and emotionally healthy, and wants to improve their self-image and confidence by making a change to a physical trait. It is also important to have realistic expectations of treatment results.

Yes. In the last few decades there have been numerous advances made in aesthetic and regenerative medicine.
