In 2020, people’s lives and businesses have had a massive jolt due to the COVID-19 pandemic. To prevent the virus from spreading, staying indoors is the new normal.

These days, terms like “I love going outdoors” is a thing of past, as you cannot even take a stroll down the road. Indoor life is affecting the health and hygiene of people. Also, most beauty treatments are limited to DIY tips because skin treatments in the US are possible only through prior appointments.

We still do not know for how long the lockdown will continue. Until this crisis gets over, people need to adjust their lives to stay afloat. Now, if we assume that this pandemic ends in the near future, what will be the noticeable trends in the medical aesthetics industry? In this post, we will talk about that with the optimism that those days are not far off.

 

Potential Medical Aesthetic Trends in 2020

In the post-lockdown period, the potential trends will be many, starting from face rejuvenation and body contouring to hair treatment. Let us take a look at the prominent upcoming trends in the medical aesthetic industry.

 

PRP Skin Therapy

 

Platelet-rich plasma or PRP therapy is applicable for both facial rejuvenation and hair restoration. When PRP along with tiny amounts of additives like hyaluronic acid and neuromodulators, is injected through microneedle chambers, facial complexion is improved. This method is also known as a vampire facial. The whole process takes around 20 minutes and does not need any anesthesia and the patient can head home soon after the procedure with refreshed glowing skin.

 

Laser Rejuvenation

 

Laser-based skin treatment has been popular for quite some time now. In 2020, there will be an upswing in this trend. Dermatology experts say that the upcoming year will be about technology-based skin solutions like RevLite. This technology triggers deep skin tissues to produce more collagen which removes scars, wrinkles and pigmentation. In addition, this method is also equally useful for overall skin brightening and rejuvenation by treating fine lines, acne, melasma and brown spots.

Laser Hair Removal

 

Another laser treatment! This time for removing excessive or unwanted body hair. Whether staying indoors during the lockdown or going outdoor, body hair always embarrasses women. Even though right now, women do not have to step out for work, social gatherings or shopping, unwanted body hair still feels awkward. Physician-supervised hair removal using laser technology has proven to be quite effective and fast. The sessions are shorter and customizable according to the patient’s needs.

 

Minimally Invasive Skin Tightening

 

These days, many well-known medical aesthetic experts use minimally invasive skin-tightening procedures like Optimas laser treatment and the popularity of this treatment is likely to rise in 2020. Many patients look for non-surgical and preventative treatments that are painless yet long-lasting. The Optimas laser treatment can enhance the skin-tightening effect to prevent the skin from sagging.

 

The Lit lift

 

One of the most popular non-surgical procedures in the recent past has been facial optimization or Lit Lift in short. This face lift procedure makes a person look younger and is minimally invasive in nature. The procedure involves the use of anesthesia; a medical aesthetician makes tiny cuts or incisions to carry out the treatment. Before this treatment, patients need to undergo a few tests for the aesthetician to know if their skin is suitable for the treatment.

 

A Combined Treatment of Micro needling and Radio frequency

 

A combination of microneedling and radiofrequency can amplify the results of skin treatment. These are blood-free procedures which stimulate collagen production. It means patient recovery is quite fast after the procedure. Radiofrequency-microneedling treatments apply LED light which speeds up the recovery process.

  

Closing Words

 

With medical, technological and scientific advancements, new trends keep coming up and older ones fade away. As an increasing number of people are leaning towards non-invasive and painless skin procedures, more such trends are likely in the future. However, for now, the current skin treatment procedures are going to stay for some time.
