Unlike a health problem or medical condition, nonsurgical aesthetic treatments are entirely optional. You don't have to fill in those wrinkles, erase those broken blood vessels or minimize that redness. You do it because you want to.

It is important, however, that you have realistic expectations about the treatment you choose. Ask your aesthetic specialty physician to show you before-and-after photos of treatments he/she has performed. Also ask how long the effects will last, what will the estimated cost be and how many treatments you may require if undergoing a treatment that requires several sessions, such as laser treatments.
