Whether you want to erase forehead wrinkles or reduce brown spots on your skin, you’re likely considering a medical spa treatment to achieve your goals. Fortunately, several popular med spa treatments can effectively improve your aesthetic concerns with little downtime or fuss—all without surgery.
As you’re researching your treatment options, you’ll want to consider your skin type, skin concerns, preferred downtime, and longevity of results. We’re here to help guide you, of course, but here’s what you should know about some of today’s top treatments.
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
Signs of aging around your eyes and forehead show up as facial lines, thanks to aging and natural facial muscle movement. BOTOX is a popular way to improve expression lines, also called dynamic wrinkles.
Why You Should Try BOTOX
There are many reasons BOTOX is considered an effective and versatile wrinkle-relaxing treatment:
- Improves facial lines on a short-term basis and prevents new lines from forming.
- Requires minimal downtime, recovery, and side effects compared to surgical procedures.
- Provides long-lasting results with regular maintenance treatments.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances that can be injected into your face and body to improve wrinkles and folds and add definition to facial features. Some popular dermal fillers, such as JUVÉDERM®, are formulated with synthetic hyaluronic acid (HA) that draws more moisture into the skin to create natural-looking volume.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are a go-to for individuals who want a fast and straightforward treatment to look more youthful and refreshed.
- Creates natural-looking volume in your lips, cheeks, chin, and other areas.
- Easily combines with BOTOX to address age-related facial lines and volume loss.
- Treat medical concerns such as migraines and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
- Requires minimal recovery and downtime.
Laser and Light-Based Skin Treatments
If you are hesitant to try laser skin treatments because they might irritate your skin, you should know that the technology has come a long way in recent years. Your laser technician can customize the intensity of most ablative and non-ablative lasers based on your skin concerns.
If you prefer a gentler energy treatment, you can try LimeLight (IPL), which uses various wavelengths of light to improve concerns such as freckles, sun spots, rosacea, and discoloration.
Are Laser Facial Treatments Safe?
Laser treatments are safe if performed by an experienced laser technician. Your provider will assess your skin type and concerns to recommend a laser treatment for optimal results. Downtime for a laser treatment depends on its intensity; we offer several options that require little to no recovery time.
What Is Body Sculpting?
Body sculpting treatments use a heat source to reduce fat cells in different areas of your body. truSculpt iD is a popular body sculpting treatment that safely removes fat cells without impacting surrounding tissue. The radiofrequency energy used in truSculpt iD also tightens and firms your surface skin.
A benefit of truSculpt iD is that minimal to zero downtime is needed after the treatment. Body sculpting treatments can effectively address stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise.
