The market for aesthetic medicine is constantly growing and, except “re-constructive” surgery that responds exclusively to the need to improve the appear-ance, it presents a number of legal, but also strictly ethical and professional ques-tions. The aim of the authors is, through a literature review, to discuss whether it can still be possible to deal with an idea of aesthetic medicine extraneous to the concept of disease and, therefore, to re-evaluate the position of the aesthetic surgeon with its authoritative professional dignity.

Abstract
The market for aesthetic medicine is constantly growing and, except “re-constructive” surgery that responds exclusively to the need to improve the appear-ance, it presents a number of legal, but also strictly ethical and professional ques-tions. The aim of the authors is, through a literature review, to discuss whether it can still be possible to deal with an idea of aesthetic medicine extraneous to the concept of disease and, therefore, to re-evaluate the position of the aesthetic surgeon with its authoritative professional dignity.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
