Dr Phillip Levy is a Dermatologist in Switzerland and the inventor of the Botox Lift. Here, he explains how important the regulation of aesthetic treatments is to the industry.
"The global demand for non-surgical cosmetic treatments is exploding as consumers become more self-conscious about their appearance.
This is in part due to the increased use of social media, particularly selfies, and the internet in general, including the increased availability of images, before and after case studies, and access to celebrities. Many people are now striving to look a certain way, and more and more are turning to both surgical and non-surgical aesthetic treatments to help them achieve this.
