Personalized assessment
To determine the most appropriate treatment, an initial consultation is recommended.
The aim is to analyze your needs and draw up a customized treatment plan.
The major difference between aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery lies in the surgical procedure.
Aesthetic medicine does not require major surgery. In other words, aesthetic medicine is not supposed to involve :
- Surgical procedures (incisions, resection, sutures, etc.)
- General anaesthesia
- Hospitalization
- Long periods of convalescence
The other difference between aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery lies in the procedures and instruments used. Aesthetic medicine favors gentler intervention techniques such as :
- Injections of hyaluronic acid and/or botulinum toxin to combat sagging skin
- Lasers for hair removal, skin rejuvenation and scar removal
- More innovative medical treatments (peeling, microdermabrasion, luxopuncture...)
- Well-being treatments (cosmetology, nutrition, mesotherapy, etc.)
Whatever the case, according to French medical terminology, aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery belong together. Quite simply, because they share the same objectives:
- Correcting body disorders
- Rejuvenate the body
- Reshape the figure
- Reshaping the face
In short, aesthetic medicine, either in conjunction with or in addition to cosmetic surgery, enables us to respond to requests concerning wrinkles, loss of volume, spots, varicosities or veins, hair removal, skin rejuvenation... and all this without involving surgical procedures.
In order to meet all these objectives, our aesthetic medicine clinic offers you different fields of intervention:
