More and more Italians are
resorting to esthetic physicians, according to a survey out
Friday commissioned by the Italian Society of Esthetic Medicine.
The survey found patients are mostly women aged 36-50 and
their preferred treatment is hyaluronic acid injections to fill
wrinkles, followed by Botox shots, chemical peels, and
non-surgical liposuction.
For men, the preferences were reversed with Botox topping
the list followed by hyaluronic acid injections, then chemical
peels, and non-surgical liposuction.
The data showed 90% of patients came back after their
initial consultation, and that 56% scheduled 3-5 visits in the
first four months of 2016. Another 18% saw their esthetic doctor
between 5 and 8 times in the same period.
