Aging Intervention and Health Transformation
Aesthetic medicine and specialized cosmetic treatments improve the extrinsic signs of aging, but besides the desire to look great as they live longer, today’s sophisticated aesthetic patients have now turned their attention to improving their health to feel as good as they look. Along with the physical aspects of aging, the diseases of aging are also on the minds of mature consumers.
More than 20% of the world population will be over the age of 65 by 2050, incrementally increasing the risk factor for chronic diseases – ranging from Alzheimer’s to cardiovascular conditions to cancer. Is it unalterable? Recent breakthroughs in our understanding of the aging process suggest that there may be ways to intervene and extend lifespan and, more importantly, healthspan.
Age management medicine is rapidly advancing on many levels so don’t miss your chance to hear Nathan LeBrasseur, PT, PhD, expand on these topics and share how he and his team at Mayo Clinic are exploring ways to combat aging and its consequences to transform human health.
