Imaging Technology at AMWC Miami: The Rise of Advanced Visualization
The integration of cutting-edge imaging technology is becoming increasingly popular in aesthetic medicine. These tools help practitioners assess and track patient progress with remarkable accuracy.
Before and after images are essential in medical esthetics as they provide visual proof of treatment efficacy, helping clients see real, measurable results. These images build trust and credibility, showcasing a practitioner’s skill and the effectiveness of various procedures. They also serve as valuable tools for patient education, helping individuals set realistic expectations for their treatments. Additionally, high-quality before and after photos enhance marketing efforts, attracting potential clients by demonstrating transformation. In clinical practice, they assist in tracking progress, allowing practitioners to refine treatments for optimal results. Ultimately, these images are a powerful asset for both client satisfaction and business growth.

Exosome Therapy at AMWC Miami: The Future of Regenerative Skincare
While exosome products were present at AMWC Miami, their prominence was notably less than at IMCAS Paris, suggesting a higher popularity in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East compared to the U.S. medical aesthetics market. This disparity may be attributed to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) stringent regulations; currently, there are no FDA-approved human-cell or tissue-based exosome products, and the agency has issued warnings about unapproved exosome therapies.1
Plant-derived exosomes (phytoexosomes) are not currently subject to the same strict FDA scrutiny as human/animal exosomes.
In contrast, the Asia Pacific exosome market is experiencing significant growth, with projections estimating it will reach approximately $116.6 million by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.4% from 2025 to 2030.2
This regional growth indicates a more favorable regulatory environment and greater acceptance of exosome-based therapies outside the U.S.
Key players in this space included:
