Luxury Botox injections on board Yacht’s part of growing caretaker medical and beauty trends
Imagine being able to receive botox injections and other personal care services directly on your yacht or private boat – that’s the latest trend known as “Boat-Tox.” This luxury service allows individuals to order injectables and treatments to their location while enjoying a day out on the water.
Dr. Alexander Golberg, a specialist in functional and aesthetic medicine, believes that this trend is part of a larger caretaker-esthetic movement. He launched a service called “Dr. Hampton’s,” which caters to high-profile clients such as celebrities, CEOs, frequent travelers, and young professionals who prefer to receive treatments in the comfort of their own homes or on their boats.
In light of the pandemic, many medical offices were forced to close, leading to a rise in on-demand medical and cosmetic services. People still want to look and feel their best, even if it means receiving treatments outside of a traditional clinical setting.
Sheila Nazarian, a plastic surgeon based in California, notes that the prices for these exclusive services reflect the VIP treatment that clients receive. Patients pay not only for the treatment itself but also for the privacy, exclusivity, and convenience of having an expert come to them.
Managing injectables on a yacht comes with its own set of challenges, including considerations for lighting, sterility, and the movement of the ship. Golberg ensures that injections are only administered when the boat is safely anchored, maintaining the same level of safety and precision as in a traditional office setting.
It’s important to note that only experienced providers should attempt to administer injectables in a non-clinical setting. While complications are rare, they can be more challenging to address outside of a medical facility.
The “Boat-Tox” trend is just one example of the growing demand for personalized and convenient self-care services. As technology continues to advance, we can expect to see more innovative ways for individuals to prioritize their well-being, whether it’s on land or at sea.
