People seek medical spas over other options for their advanced rejuvenation treatments. If you seek to enhance your natural beauty or address specific skin concerns, medical spas offer various services targeting moderate to severe conditions.
1. PDO threading
Polydioxanone (PDO) threading is a non-surgical treatment that utilizes dissolvable threads to lift and tighten sagging skin. These threads consist of biocompatible materials designed to stimulate collagen production. A medical spa practitioner will strategically insert the threads under the skin using a fine needle during the treatment. The threads act as a scaffolding system, lifting and repositioning sagging skin. Over time, the body will naturally absorb the threads while stimulating collagen production for long-lasting benefits.
2. Chemical peels
Chemical peels are popular skin rejuvenation treatments that exfoliate the skin, reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and wrinkles, and improve the overall texture and complexion. The medical spa's practitioner will apply a chemical solution to the patient's skin, gently removing the outermost layer, formally known as the epidermis, dead skin cells, revealing a fresh complexion. The chemical peel's strength and depth will vary depending on the concern the patient needs to address.
3. Injectables
Injectable treatments, including Botox and dermal fillers, are highly effective for reducing visible creasing, restoring volume, and enhancing facial features. Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes muscles and prevents them from contracting, effectively reducing and preventing the more dynamic wrinkles, fine lines, and crow's feet. Alternatively, various dermal fillers aim to address volume loss or temporarily push the borders of a patient's jawline or lips. Regular maintenance sessions will be necessary for both injectables. Therefore, results can last three to six months, depending on patients' chosen injectables.
4. IPL therapy
Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, also known as photofacial therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes targeted light energy to address various skin concerns. This treatment is popular due to its effectiveness in reducing the appearance of sun damage, age spots, freckles, and broken vessels, restoring an even texture and appearance.
During the treatment, a handheld device will emit variants of intense light that penetrate the skin, targeting pigmented areas and blood vessels. The sensation is often described as a mild stinging or snapping sensation but is generally well-tolerated. Following the treatment, the skin may appear slightly discolored or swollen, but this usually subsides within a few hours or days.
5. Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is another non-invasive treatment that removes dead skin cells and improves skin texture, revealing a smoother, more youthful protection. The medical spa practitioner can perform this procedure on the neck, face, chest, and hands, making it easier for the visible portions of one's body to look the same. The procedure involves using a diamond or crystalized wand to gently abrade (rub) the skin's surface while vacuum suction collects the exfoliated skin cells.
