Q. What is Medical Esthetics? How is it different from general esthetics?
A. The term esthetics (or aesthetics) means the branch of philosophy that deals with the nature and expression of beauty, as in the fine arts. Esthetics also involves the study of the psychological responses to beauty and artistic experiences and grapples with the conception of what is artistically valid or beautiful. It is the universal and timeless world of art and the human reflection and response to all of art’s manifestations.
Medical esthetics is a branch of anatomical science that relates to the health and wellness of the skin. This science searches for ways to appreciate and maintain the beauty of skin through life’s aging and environmental effects and combines conventional and holistic approaches with innovative medical modalities. The benefit is that these new technologies permit anti-aging procedures to be performed without surgery or recovery time.
Medical esthetics may incorporate lasers and intense pulsed light technology, Botox injections, and other medical beauty procedures with traditional services like facials, massages, and body treatments.
An esthetician is a medical professional that is specially trained in the art of medical esthetics that maintain the overall health and beauty of the skin.
Modern-day esthetics emerged in the 1990s, with the rising interest in cosmeceuticals — products that have mutually beautifying and therapeutic benefits. Youthful skin and its overall health has grown in importance as life spans increase, harmful environmental effects on our bodies and mind rise, and stress and face-paced lifestyles continue to grow.
Q. Why should I consider natural therapies instead of plastic surgery?
A. The reason for natural therapies is simple. Natural therapies are non-evasive and provide more natural looking results without lengthy recuperation time. We are a society increasingly focused on prevention, healthy lifestyles, fitness, spirituality and relaxation. The services offered at Cherry Mill Healing Center are designed to meet the needs of today’s men and women.
