    12 Botox and filler treatment trends every med spa should know in 2025

    12 Botox and filler treatment trends header image

    Aging gracefully has never been easier than in 2025. 

    Part of that is due to the numerous advancements in minimally-invasive cosmetic treatments, such as Botox and fillers. These procedures have become so present in our lives that they’re now a routine part of self-care for many.

    But clients don’t just want your standard procedures. They’re much more informed and want to seek out the latest and most effective treatments. 

    For med spas, staying ahead of the curve is essential. 

    Knowing what’s hot in Botox and filler treatments allows you to offer the most up-to-date services, differentiate your business, and attract more clients.

    Introducing 12 must-know Botox and filler treatment trends💉

    1. Preventative treatments

    Botox and fillers are no longer just for reversing signs of aging. 

    Younger client generations, such as Millenials and Gen Z, are fully embracing “prejuvenation” – essentially pre-empting aging before it happens. A quick scroll on TikTok will show hundreds of 20-somethings getting Botox! 

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Preventative treatments = lifelong clients: If someone starts Botox or fillers in their 20s, they’re more likely to return every few months for maintenance.
    • It creates recurring revenue: Baby Botox require touch-ups every 3-6 months, fillers every 6-12 months, which keeps clients coming back. 
    • The influencer effect: Younger demographics look to celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Kylie Jenner, who have normalized preventative Botox as part of a beauty routine. Tapping into this is a huge revenue opportunity. 

    2. Microfillers

    The days of puffy cheeks and too much filler are over. Clients now want natural-looking results, and that’s where microfillers come in.  

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Clients now prefer subtle enhancements: The “overfilled” look is out and the natural look is in, with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reporting a 7% increase in minimally invasive procedures in 2023.
    • More natural option: Clients may avoid traditional fillers out of fear of looking unnatural. Microfillers offer a softer, more approachable option.
    • Clients need to return: Microfillers should be applied in small, gradual amounts for maximum impact. This means clients need to keep coming back, which is repeat business (and regular revenue) for you.

    3. Advanced injector methods with micro-cannulas

    Clients prefer treatments with minimal side effects. 

    Studies show microcannulas lower the risk of vascular occlusion – when a blood vessel becomes blocked – by a massive 77.1% compared to traditional needles.

    This technique improves comfort, reduces bruising, and pairs perfectly with accurate filler face mapping to enhance precision and ensure great results.

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Less downtime is needed: People live busy lives and taking time off work to recover from aesthetic treatments isn’t an option for everyone. Micro-cannulas reduce the risk of bruising and swelling, which means a faster recovery.
    • It’ll attract clients who prioritize comfort: Clients can expect less pain, fewer injection points, and fewer side effects. Use your website and social media by to highlight microcannulas advantages via testimonials. 

    4. Natural-looking enhancements

    Clients don’t necessarily want anyone to know they’ve had work done.

    There’s been a 28% increase in consumer spending on aesthetic ‘tweakments’ over the past two years, showing a consumer demand for subtle enhancements.

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Focus on treatments that target different muscle groups: A good way to achieve a natural-looking Botox face is to target the muscle groups behind those expression lines.
    • Offer treatments that promise natural-looking results: During consultations, offer tailored treatment plans that align with a more natural look.
    • Ensure your marketing matches: Any before and after photos you use for marketing need to show natural enhancements, not over-inflated lips and so on. Be mindful that your staff are also your brand ambassadors. 

    5. Combined treatments and therapies

    Combo treatments are becoming a smart option for clients and med spas. 

    For example, you could offer a combination of several treatments and therapies, such as Botox, fillers, laser, or others, that you can sell under one treatment name, for example, “Summer glow” or “Ultimate Rejuvenation package.”

    Is this trend worth it? Yes🎯

    • Leverage multiple service offerings: Get creative with filler promotion ideas and create bundles that combine Botox, filler, and complementary treatments, such as microneedling or laser, tailored to specific aesthetic goals.
    • You can sell outcomes, not treatments: People want to look fresher or younger or less angry, right? That’s an outcome, not a treatment. With clever marketing you can package up treatments based on the end result. 
    • Simplify decision-making: Clients love curated options that take the guesswork out of choosing the right treatments for their goals.

    6. Personalized plans

    No two faces are alike and a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t cut it. 

    If you really want to take your customer experience to the next level, creating tailored, personalized treatment plans is key. They signal your experience and expertise and help med spas stand out in a competitive market. 

    Should you jump on this trend for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Clients love customized treatment plans: Off-the-shelf treatments are fine, but you can take it up a gear by designing treatment plans for customers. Use consultations to assess their specific goals and expectations.
    • You can charge more: If you’re providing a heightened level of service and personalized plans then you can (and should) be charging for it. 
    • Opportunity to upsell: Clients who want personalized plans are looking for an outcome (for example, to not look so tired) not necessarily a specific treatment. That means they may be more receptive to complementary services. 

    7. Longer lasting formulations

    Clients want long-lasting results without having to rebook every 12 weeks.

    Recent advancements in Botox and high-density hyaluronic acid filler formulations make that possible, and offer a greater value with fewer touch-ups.

    Is this a smart move for med spas worth jumping on? Yes🎯

    • Premium pricing: Long-lasting treatments can justify a higher price point. This can be used to counter the reduction in appointments needed.
    • Attract high-end clients: There are lots of places offering Botox and fillers at low, low prices. A higher price point and longer-lasting results can attract a more discerning clientele who are looking for top-of-the-line services. 
    • Reduce future touch-up appointments: Offer packages that provide top-of-the-line injectables that will deliver results for a year or more. This is ideal for clients who are looking longevity and value.

    8. Growing demand for male clients

    The male aesthetic market is set to grow by $20.6 billion by 2030

    This could be a huge untapped growth opportunity for med spas. Staying ahead means staying in the loop with key opinion leaders in the industry who can help you refine the services you offer for this growing demographic. 

    Is this a trend worth jumping on for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Google searches are skyrocketing: According to the Harley Street Skin Clinic, the number of searches for male Botox (or Brotox 😉) increased by a massive 3300% between January and September 2024. 
    • You’ll stand out from competitors: Many med spas still cater primarily to women. Create a “For Him” section on your website to feature services tailored to male clients to create a competitive edge for your business.
    • Men also love to be groomed: Like women, men choose Botox and fillers for a more natural, enhanced look. You can offer these treatments to emphasize their masculinity, like jawline definition or smoothing frown lines.

    9. Non-invasive treatments

    Non-invasive treatments are trending as clients seek options that fit well into their busy lifestyles. These treatments offer visible results with minimal pain, no downtime, and lower costs than surgery. 

    Here are some of the most trending non-invasive beauty treatments med spas should consider in 2025:

    🏹Botox and fillers

    🏹Chemical peels

    🏹 Radio-frequency

    🏹 CO2 laser resurfacing 

    🏹 Exosomes

    🏹 Mesotherapy injections and microneedling

    🏹 Sculptra

    10. Bio-stimulatory fillers

    Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume to the skin, bio-stimulatory fillers, also known as non-HA fillers, create volume and focus on stimulating the body’s collagen and elastin production. 

    Is this trend important to have at your med spa? Yes 🎯

    • They last longer than HA fillers: Clients won’t have to visit the clinic every six months for a touch-up. You can offer trial sessions with promotional bio-stimulator treatments to let clients experience their benefits.
    • They’re a diverse treatment option: Biostimulator fillers can address areas where HA fillers struggle, such as larger-volume restorations, lower face rejuvenation, skin laxity, and even acne scarring. Add them to your membership or loyalty programs to encourage regular bookings.

    11. Lip flips

    The purpose of the lip flip is to relax the muscles around the upper lip, which causes the lip to “flip” upward and appear larger than normal.

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • Less invasive: Lip flips are a less invasive procedure with a lower risk of swelling or bruising compared to traditional lip fillers. This means there’s a faster recovery time, which may broaden their appeal.
    • Budget-friendly price point: Some clients love their natural lip shape but simply want a little extra definition. A lip flip enhances what’s already there — without the cost or commitment of lip filler.
    • It’s a beginner-friendly option: Because it doesn’t require any injectables or downtime, it’s an ideal treatment for first-time clients who want to dip their toes into filler treatments (but may be feeling a little apprehensive.) 

    12. Facial volume restoration

    In the last decade, facial rejuvenation treatments have been a global trend in dermatological procedures, focusing on restoring the lost face volume.

    Is this trend worth it for your med spa? Yes🎯

    • It addresses multiple aging concerns: Loss of facial volume can lead to hollowed cheeks, under-eye shadows, and sagging skin. Combining fillers, Botox, and complementary treatments ensures optimal, long-lasting results.
    • The rise of Ozempic: “Ozempic face” is also predicted to lead to more interest in filler treatments to restore facial volume, as covered by Vogue. 
    • Clients see instant results: Facial volume treatments provide instant plumping, so customers will see immediate improvements from these treatments, with minimal downtime in their looks, all without looking overdone.
