The phenomenal growth of spas, particularly wellness clinics, has brought physicians and skin care protessionals together in a closer working relationship. Physicians now are employing skin care professionals or may work in partnership with them. Within the past few years, a more holistic approach toward skin care is being taken so that lifestyle factors are to be considered in skin and body care making nutrition an integral part in the training of the skin care professional. During the past few years, it has been observed that medicine is leaning toward a preventive approach, rather than the traditional model of health care where the disease is treated only upon detection. It is this author's belief that the skin care industry will adopt a similar mode so that preventive care or anti-aging therapies for the aging skin and body will be adopted in the esthetic industry.
