What exactly is longevity/anti-aging medicine?

We're all in the biz: All physicians are in the business of "anti-aging", that's what we do! everything we teach you and prescribe to you is meant to either make you more comfortable or prolongue your life. Anything else outside of the "satndard of care" is generally quakery and expensive snake oil. Don't waste your money, find a doctor you trust and take their advice.

Many aspects: Physicians who belong to the organization that promotes anti-aging , use diet, exercise, nutritional supplements and hormonal optimization to delay the aging process. Most controversial is the use of hormones like estradiol, testosterone, and growth hormone which can have unintended consequences of promoting common tumors.

Excellent question!: Most medicine is disease management, but anti-aging (also called age management) takes a more preventative approach by teaching and emphasizing lifestyle choices such as excellent nutrition, exercise and hormone optimization aimed at increasing healthful longevity proactively. Doctors pursuing AAM or AMM have also incorporated Regenerative medicine (using body itself to ameliorate or cure).
