This month, we’re turning the spotlight on Fresh Member Jackie, the force behind NJ Aesthetics. With over thirteen years of experience, Jackie brings a blend of expertise and passion to cosmetic nursing, establishing herself as an expert in aesthetics.

Jackie’s path to aesthetics began with her love for helping others feel their best, and her background is as diverse as it is impressive.

Before venturing into cosmetics, Jackie was dedicated to mental health nursing. Her transition to a leading cosmetic practitioner speaks volumes about her commitment and passion for her work. 

Known for her dedication and personalised approach, Jackie specialises in offering advanced cosmetic treatments at NJ Aesthetics. Her knack for ensuring patient safety while delivering natural-looking results through carefully assessed treatment plans has accumulated a loyal clientele.

Her knowledge-sharing during consultations emphasises her top priority - instilling confidence in patients and helping them achieve a fresh, radiant look.

However, her accomplishments are not limited solely to her profession. “Being a parent of two kids, raising them by myself, is my number one greatest accomplishment in life in general,” she proudly states. Jackie effortlessly juggles her personal and professional commitments, truly embodying the spirit of a super-mum.

Running NJ Aesthetics for several years has not only been an enriching experience for Jackie but also a remarkable accomplishment, especially since transitioning from a large skin clinic. Despite the initial challenges, her enthusiasm, perseverance, and love for nurturing aesthetics have been behind her successful venture since 2017.

Why Fresh Clinics?

Jackie’s support from Fresh Clinics has helped her in her success.

She first heard about Fresh Clinics through a friend and became a member even before starting her business. “I can tell that all the nurses who are running their own businesses are well-supported by Fresh Clinics,” she said.

Jackie appreciates the support and resources provided by Fresh Clinics, which have helped her navigate the challenges of running her own clinic and encouraged her to grow.

McKinsey’s recent paper, ‘Here to Stay: An Attractive Future for Medical Aesthetics’ has highlighted some key trends shaping the industry. We’ve put together the key points for you, to offer valuable insights for your business.

The aesthetics industry is on track to maintain near-double-digit growth throughout 2025. Looking ahead, several emerging trends are set to redefine cosmetic clinics, providing exciting opportunities for practitioners and business owners.

Number of injectables procedures and market size annually, USA & Canada: 

Thriving Despite Challenges

Even during the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic, the aesthetic industry quickly rebounded, driven by a growing and diverse patient base, increased awareness, and the rapid adoption of new technologies. Projections indicate that the market will continue to grow annually by up to 14% through to 2026.

This growth is supported by a few key factors:

• Expanding Consumer Base: Social media's influence has made aesthetic treatments more mainstream and acceptable. Recent studies show that 81% of consumers are now more accepting of aesthetic procedures compared to five years ago
• Brand Loyalty: While economic uncertainty has led some consumers to seek cost-effective treatments, many remain loyal to their preferred brands and providers, especially in the neuromodulator segment (think Botox and Dysport)

The shift in attitude has opened doors for a more diverse clientele, including men, who are increasingly seeking aesthetic procedures. Between 2000 and 2018, the number of males undergoing cosmetic procedures grew by 29%, with a notable 72% increase in minimally invasive treatments. This expanding demographic presents a significant growth opportunity for med spas and clinics looking to cater to a broader audience.

Key Trends to Watch

• Products and Services: From next-generation dermal fillers to advanced laser treatments for acne, the industry is evolving rapidly
• Proliferation of Service Channels: Cosmetic clinics are popping up everywhere, offering consumers more options than ever before. While this growth provides opportunities for business owners, it also means that customer loyalty can be tough. Providers who can offer a personalised, trusted experience will be best positioned to retain their clients
• Untapped Potential: McKinsey's surveys reveal that many consumers are on the verge of trying medical-aesthetic products within the next five years, signalling opportunities for expansion for business owners

Opportunities

For those looking to start or expand their clinic, the future is bright. Here are a few strategies to consider:

• Products and Services: From next-generation dermal fillers to advanced laser treatments for acne, the industry is evolving rapidly
• Proliferation of Service Channels: Medical spas and clinics are popping up everywhere, offering consumers more options than ever before. While this growth provides opportunities for business owners, it also means that customer loyalty can be tough. Providers who can offer a personalised, trusted experience will be best positioned to retain their clients
• Untapped Potential: McKinsey's surveys reveal that many consumers are on the verge of trying medical-aesthetic products within the next five years, signalling opportunities for expansion for med spa owners

For practitioners and business owners, the key to success will be staying adaptable, embracing new opportunities, and focusing on delivering exceptional patient experiences.

So, if you're contemplating whether or not to dive into aesthetics, remember – this industry is here to stay.
