Press Release Summary: The use of cosmetic
surgery is in the rise in the UK. With
all of the attention surrounding plastic-surgery-gone-wrong as of late, are
non-surgical treatments a safer alternative?
Press Release Body: Birmingham, England ( ExpressPressRelease ) - September 3, 2008
- Cosmetic
enhancement is a multi-billion dollar, worldwide industry that
helps the
older to look younger, the out-of-shape to appear more fit and the blemished to
remove the imperfections from their bodies. As the popularity of cosmetic
enhancement treatments increase, so do the stories of deaths, injuries, and
disfigurement from surgical aesthetic improvement services. Dr. Bahia, owner of
Edgbaston Aesthetics, looks to curb the increasingly devastating
effects of cosmetic surgeries by offering fully-licensed, non-surgical
skin care services to Birmingham,
England residents eighteen years of age or older.
According to the UK Department of Health, both surgical and non-surgical
cosmetic procedures are becoming more commonplace in the UK - a
statistic that mirrors itself
with other countries around the world. While some in the industry consider
non-surgical
cosmetic procedures to be safer than plastic surgery and other
surgically based cosmetic enhancement services - governmental oversight, licensing,
and proper training is imperative in order to ensure the safety of a practice\'s
patients.
While the data regarding the growth of non-surgical cosmetic treatments in the UK is
incomplete, according to the Consulting Room(tm), a service that provides statistics
and support for the aesthetics industry, non-invasive
cosmetic procedures tend to
offer less expensive and more effective treatments than their surgically based
counterparts do. In addition to being cheaper than cosmetic surgery options,
non-surgical treatments largely offer immediate results with minimal recovery time.
Edgbaston Aesthetics, operating out of Birmingham, England and online at
www.edgbastonaesthetics.co.uk, offers Botox treatments, depigmentation, laser hair
removal, dermal fillers, and other skin care services through their clinic.
Treatments are administered by staff who are fully insured and trained in the
medical
cosmetic field at a clinic registered with the Healthcare Commission.
