Aesthetic also has its problems. The clientele is not exactly the nicest most easy going friendly humble people. Not every person goes for aesthetic services and is able to pay the high fees. You should know.
Need to eat humble pie. Kowtow.
As it is cosmetic work, the insurance premiums are higher. Also risk of lawsuits as well. You are not dealing with people in medical need. Margin for error is very very thin.
There is also increasing competition.
Working for others also means challenges. How much are you bringing in? If you are not performing then out you go.
Seriously in Singapore the only alternative outside of GP work is Aesthetic? No other alternatives? What about 24h clinics? Emergency? Pain? Mental health? Sports?
I guess the specialist field is also quite well developed so they corner everything.
Strange that the plastic surgeons and dermatologists don't corner the aesthetic market?
