According to the 2002 International Spa Association Study:
• Total spa revenue in 2001 totaled $10.7 billion
• Strong trend toward medical-type products and service
• Consumers want simplicity
• Consumers have less time to spend at a spa
• Many people see spas as a necessity to staying healthy
The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine is dedicated to the advancement of technology to detect, prevent, and treat aging related disease and to promote research into methods to retard and optimize the human aging process.
According to the CDC, "The United States is on the brink of a longevity revolution. By 2030, the number of older Americans will have more than doubled to 70 million, or one in every five Americans stands at the very forefront of this new revolution.
"According to the International Medical Spa Association (IMSA), the Med spa movement has been closely linked to the growing baby boomer generation in the United States, consisting of persons born during the post-World War II birth rate boom from 1946 - 1964," Buckingham notes.
"Baby boomers are the wealthiest, best educated and most sophisticated consumers in history and at 78 million strong, they are the single largest consumer group in the U.S. today. They currently make up 51 percent of the total U.S. population and control 75 percent of this country's wealth. IMSA statistics indicate that 12,000 Americans turn 50 every day (1 every 8 seconds) and this will continue for the next 20 years. Americans over 55 will grow by 60 percent in the next 20 years and their buying power will exceed $2 trillion in 2007.
"Given these large figures, what is state of the Med spa industry today and what effect does this have on individual Med spa owners? Studies from medical and industry trade groups, along with independent research, indicate that this is a huge market, so why has individual med spa success been spotty and how can we explain the seemingly slow rate of market penetration?"
The Med spa Industry is in its Infancy. "In the bigger picture, the Med spa industry is still in its infancy -- in fact, the term Med spa or Medical Spa was only recently coined to describe a facility whose medical program integrates both traditional and nontraditional medicine and spa treatments under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional. IMSA research shows that while traditional day spas number at least 14,000 in the U.S. alone, the retail medical spa number is closer to 1500.
"Like most emerging industries, the med spa industry has very low market penetration among consumers, with just a small percentage of early adopters embracing the treatments and technology. Of the more than 27 million U.S. women targeted, only one million are currently med spa customers, with the total market penetration estimated to be about 10 - 12 percent of the existing demographic potential
