Non-Surgical Medical Aesthetics: Past, Present and Future

A brief summary of 24 years in the Aesthetic Industry, where we have been and where we are going.

After a career in the pharmaceutical industry, which included being involved in the launch of Botox® in 1994, Ron, with his business partner Martyn Roe, set up a consultancy business called Aesthetic Business Services. They helped to develop Wigmore Medical’s “one-stop shop” concept for aesthetic suppliers and launched the FACE and BODY Conferences.

Ron and Martyn also own www.consultingroom.com – launched in 2003, and now the largest specialist aesthetic membership website in the UK, alongside a dedicated training website: www.cosmetictraining.co.uk, classified website: www.cosmeticclassifieds.co.uk, and a recruitment site: www.cosmetic-recruitment.co.uk.

They also part-own MediZen – a local Midlands based cosmetic clinic and clinical trial centre which, in conjunction with their other activities, gives them a very broad overview of the cosmetic industry.

In 2013 they took on the distribution of the Hydrafacial and in 2014 they pioneered, 'Sweat Smart Centres' - a novel clinic concept for treating problem sweat. In 2017 they also started distribution of Perk and ZENii, a supplement and skincare brand launched by Dr Johanna Ward.
