Aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery are two distinct but closely related disciplines focused on improving a patient’s physical appearance and wellbeing. Both offer treatments and procedures designed to enhance appearance, contributing to improved self-esteem and self-image.
Aesthetic medicine is a branch of medicine focused on non-surgical treatments that improve the appearance and condition of the skin, correct minor imperfections and slow the ageing process. These treatments include dermal filler injections, laser treatments, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, mesotherapy, botulinum toxin (Botox) and many others. These procedures are usually minimally invasive and require little or no downtime.
Cosmetic surgery, by contrast, is a specialised surgical field focused on improving appearance through structural changes and enhancements. Procedures may include rhinoplasty (reshaping the nose), blepharoplasty (eyelid correction), liposuction, breast augmentation, facelifts and many others. These procedures are usually more invasive and require a recovery period.
Dr Ciro Gargano has performed both cosmetic surgery and aesthetic medicine treatments at Centro Medico Gargano for many years. With a holistic approach and deep respect for the patient’s physical and psychological wellbeing, he offers a wide range of personalised treatments designed to meet individual needs and achieve natural-looking results.
In aesthetic medicine, Dr Gargano offers advanced treatments such as Botox injections and hyaluronic acid fillers, as well as mesotherapy for the face and body, among others. Each treatment is designed to improve overall appearance, strengthen the skin and reduce signs of ageing while maintaining a natural look.
Dr Gargano performs procedures such as liposuction, as well as non-surgical treatments such as non-ablative blepharoplasty. The effects and their duration vary according to the procedure and individual characteristics; permanent results cannot be guaranteed. Choosing a technique requires an individual assessment of its potential benefits, limitations and risks, taking into account the natural proportions of the patient’s body and face.
At Centro Medico Gargano, patient safety and satisfaction are the main priorities. Dr Gargano is committed to providing a high standard of care, from a careful consultation before treatment to thorough follow-up afterwards.
Aesthetic medicine and cosmetic surgery, when performed by experienced professionals such as Dr Gargano, can significantly improve patients’ lives by helping them look younger, fresher and more confident. The latest technologies and techniques used by doctors such as Dr Gargano continue to advance these disciplines, improving safety and effectiveness, reducing recovery time and increasing patient satisfaction.
