What's Trending in Aesthetics?
5 Conversation Starters to Use in Your Consults
The aesthetic industry in 2025 is focused on skin health, subtle rejuvenation, and personalised care. These five trends are not only shaping cosmetic medicine – they’re also excellent ways to start meaningful conversations with your clients. Use them to guide consults, educate, and build treatment plans that evolve with your clients’ goals.
1. 🌱 Regenerative Aesthetics
“Have you heard about treatments that help your skin rejuvenate naturally?”
Clients are increasingly drawn to regenerative treatments that stimulate the body’s own healing processes. These options are ideal for those seeking natural-looking results without synthetic fillers or dramatic changes. Popular regenerative treatments include:
- PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Uses your own blood to stimulate collagen and improve skin tone and texture.
- Exosome therapy: Delivers growth factors and signaling molecules to boost skin repair and regeneration.
- Collagen stimulators: Such as Sculptra which gradually rebuild collagen for firmer, smoother skin.
- Rejuran Healer: A polynucleotide-based injectable derived from salmon DNA, known for its ability to repair damaged skin, improve elasticity, and reduce inflammation. It’s especially effective for clients with thin, fragile, or compromised skin barriers.
🔗 Link to treatment plan:
Use regenerative injectables like Rejuran as a foundational step in a long-term skin health strategy. They pair well with microneedling, LED therapy, and gentle peels. For clients with barrier damage or post-inflammatory pigmentation, Rejuran can be a game-changer in restoring dermal integrity before moving on to more intensive treatments.
2. 💊 The GLP-1 Effect
“Have you noticed changes in your skin or face since starting weight loss medication?”
With the rise of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, many clients are experiencing rapid weight loss. This often leads to facial volume loss, skin laxity, and changes in body composition.
Clients may not realise these changes are treatable. Bringing it up gently can open the door to supportive aesthetic care.
🔗 Link to treatment plan:
Offer a combination of dermal fillers, radiofrequency microneedling, and muscle toning to restore harmony and support their transformation journey. Consider layering treatments to address both volume and skin quality over time.
3. 🧴 Skin Barrier Health & Dermal Integrity
"Would you like to know how your skin’s barrier is holding up?”
There’s growing awareness around the importance of the skin barrier in maintaining hydration, preventing inflammation, and supporting treatment outcomes. Many clients are unknowingly compromising their barrier with overuse of actives or harsh treatments.
This is a great entry point to discuss dermal integrity, hydration therapies, and barrier-supportive injectables.
💉 Injectables to consider:
Profhilo: High-concentration hyaluronic acid for deep hydration and improved elasticity.
Teosyal Redensity I: A light HA-based injectable with antioxidants and vitamins for skin revitalisation.
Rejuran Healer: Also excellent for barrier repair and dermal regeneration.
🔗 Link to treatment plan:
Use these injectables to restore hydration and barrier function before introducing more intensive procedures.
Combine with LED therapy or gentle peels for optimal results.
4. 🔧 Non-Invasive Skin Firming
“Are you looking to improve skin firmness without downtime?”
Non-invasive technologies like radiofrequency (RF), HIFU, and RF microneedling are leading the way in skin firming and collagen stimulation. These treatments offer subtle, progressive improvements in skin tone and texture.
💉 Injectables to consider:
Sculptra: PLLA-based collagen stimulator for firming and texture improvement.
Profhilo Structura: Enhances facial architecture and skin firmness by replacing fat pad loss.
🔗 Link to treatment plan:
Position these treatments as part of a seasonal skin maintenance plan or pre-event prep. They also work well in combination with regenerative therapies and skin boosters.
5. 👨🦰 Men in Aesthetics
“We’re seeing more men come in for treatments. Have you or your partner ever considered something subtle?”
Men are increasingly seeking aesthetic treatments, especially those that enhance muscle tone, reduce pigmentation, or restore hair. They often prefer low-maintenance, natural-looking results.
🔗 Link to treatment plan:
Offer discreet, results-driven treatments like Botulinum toxin, RF body contouring, LED facials, or scalp PRP. Highlight minimal downtime and subtle outcomes. Consider creating male-focused packages that address common concerns like jawline definition, skin texture, and hair density.
Final Tip: Use Trends to Guide, Not Sell
These topics are more than trends, they’re tools to help clients feel seen, understood, and supported. By weaving them into your consults, you can build trust and create treatment plans that evolve with your clients’ needs.
