Top 3 Services MedSpas Provide

The Top 3 MedSpa Services (and What Makes Them So Popular)

 

You’ve thought about exploring the many versatile services med spas provide but you’re not sure where to start. You just know you want a confidence boost and you are ready to look – and feel – your best. 

 

As med spas grow in popularity, the list of services varies by location and can be quite extensive. Most of the time you can expect a range of services from facials, tattoo removal, microdermabrasion, laser hair removal, dermaplaning, ultherapy, microneedling, mole removal, and more. 

 

Here is a list of the top 3 services that make med spas so popular (and how to know if they are right for you).

 

The Top 3 Med Spa Services

 

1. Botox. Botulinum Toxin (the scientific name for Botox) is a nonsurgical injection that greatly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and the effects last anywhere between 3-12 months. Not bad for a 15-minute appointment you can easily squeeze in to a lunch break! By far and wide, this is the most popular service that brings people into med spas, and for good reason – since the FDA approved the procedure back in 2000, it has been found to be completely safe, with one study finding an extremely low, 0.24% rate of complications – in other words, patients have a 99.7% chance of experiencing zero complications! Botox is popular for its ability to reduce the appearance of Crow’s Feet, Marionette Lines, forehead wrinkles, and “Cobblestone” chin, so if these are confidence killers for you, Botox – safe, quick, and effective – may be the answer you’ve been looking for. If you don’t yet struggle with fine lines or wrinkles, Botox can also provide valuable preventive effects. In fact, experts suggest that patients in their mid-to-late twenties and early thirties can benefit from preventative Botox treatments.
2. Soft Tissue Fillers. As we age, we experience loss of muscle tone and thinning skin which can cause a hollowing, flabby, or droopy facial appearance. What’s worse, the breakdown of elastin fibers as we get older causes the skin to sag, stretch, and lose its ability to snap back. Veins and bones can also be seen more easily. But not to worry! Soft tissue fillers are FDA-approved medical device implants that do exactly what their name implies: fill in problem areas to create a smoother, fuller, more youthful appearance. While both Botox and soft tissue fillers are temporary, fillers can last longer than Botox, sometimes exceeding one year. Your doctor can help you determine which filler is the best choice for you. 
3. Sculpsure. Sculpsure, is a nonsurgical fat-reducing treatment that uses controlled heat to eliminate areas of stubborn fat.
4. Coolsculpting. Coolsculpting, or Cryolipolysis, is a nonsurgical fat-reducing treatment that uses controlled cooling to eliminate areas of stubborn fat. This number-one nonsurgical fat-reducing treatment can be used on many areas of the body including sides (“love handles”), neck (double chin), stomach (muffin top), “bra fat,” arms, thighs, lower back, and more. This service is beneficial for any problem areas that have been resistant to diet and exercise and is a great nonsurgical alternative to liposuction.
