Regain a Youthful Appearance at a Medical Spa

Regaining a youthful appearance has never been more accessible than today. Medical spas offer a wide range of services that can unlock a refreshed look with long-lasting results. Discover a few minimally invasive options we will use to improve your overall aesthetic and confidence.

Botox®

Botox, derived from botulinum toxin, is a cosmetic treatment a medical spa uses to minimize the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and crow’s feet on the face and neck. Injecting small amounts of Botox into targeted muscles temporarily paralyzes them. This temporary paralysis prevents muscles from contracting, allowing for a smoother complexion. Results of Botox treatment last anywhere from three to six months before a return visit is necessary.

Dermal Fillers

As one ages, the skin gradually loses its elasticity and volume, resulting in the sagging formation of wrinkles. Dermal fillers can restore volume and facial creases. Dermal fillers can contain various materials such as hyaluronic acid, fat, or collagen-stimulating substances. A medical spa specialist will inject the fillers into areas such as the cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds to plump the skin, effectively reducing any appearance of wrinkles. The type the med spa uses will determine how long the results last.

Microneedling

Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, involves creating micro-injuries in the skin using tiny needles. These micro-injures trigger the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin fibers. Ultimately, this increases skin elasticity, improves texture, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. This is especially beneficial for patients diagnosed with psoriasis, hyperpigmentation, or additional skin concerns such as dark spots or acne scars. Results tend to range between three to five months.

Chemical peels

A medical spa specialist will apply a chemical solution to the skin, causing it to exfoliate and eventually peel off over the course of a few days. There are different types of chemical peels, categorized as light, medium, and deep. Light chemical peels benefit superficial skin concerns such as fine lines and uneven pigmentation. Medium peels offer a bit deeper correction, targeting the epidermis layer. The deep chemical peels can target medical concerns such as cancerous growths, deep or burn scars, and severe wrinkles (though additional treatment may be necessary).

The healing process begins after the skin peels, stimulating collagen and revealing a new, radiant face. Depending on the type of chemical peels the medical spa uses, results usually last between one and three months.

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning involves exfoliating the skin's surface using a sterile surgical-grade blade. This procedure removes the surface layer of dead skin cells and facial hair, revealing a smoother and radiant complexion. This procedure can also affect the effectiveness of other skincare treatments and products, such as the absorption ability of moisturizers and toners. Dermaplaning results are temporary, lasting three to four weeks, but this can vary depending on a patient’s skin.
