Reduces Wrinkles
Most people would agree that they feel a lot better after leaving the spa than they did before getting there. This feeling is a result of the treatment procedures that have left the skin looking and feeling healthier, smoother, and younger-looking. For example, facial rejuvenation treatments like dermal fillers and laser hair removal can reduce fine lines and wrinkles. They can also tighten the skin and eliminate sagging, which gives the face a tired appearance. A med spa can also offer other non-invasive procedures to improve the skin’s health and texture, including dermaplaning and a HydraFacial, which both exfoliate and remove fine hair and dead cells from the skin, leaving it looking refreshed.
Medical Spa Facials Tailored to Your Specific Skin Conditions
While regular spa facials can leave your skin looking and feeling good, they do not treat the deeper layers of the skin where most of the problems lie. A med spa, on the other hand, offers a wide variety of medically-based facials that use ingredients and treatments that can target your skin’s specific issues and provide long lasting results.
Some of these include microneedling, which can stimulate the production of collagen, lighten pigmentation, reduce red marks and scars, clear acne, and hydrate your skin. Other types of facials include chemical peels, which can exfoliate and smooth the skin, reducing rough patches. And some facials use intense-pulsed light (IPL), which works to remove unwanted hair and reduce dark spots, freckles, and other discolorations.
Because med spas are non-invasive, they do not require the downtime and risk of surgery to deliver these results. This means that they can performed during a lunch break, which is something many people find appealing. They also offer shorter recovery times and less discomfort than surgical options.
A good med spa will have an experienced and knowledgeable staff and a trained aesthetician who can perform a facial that is unique to your skin needs. They will also have high-quality products and skincare lines that have rigorously tested for quality and effectiveness. A great way to gauge a med spa’s reputation is to ask who chooses the products they carry and how they choose.
Reduces Blemishes
While a traditional spa facial may cleanse and purify your skin, it isn’t likely to make an impact beyond the surface of your skin. A medical spa facial, however, designed to address your specific skincare needs, whether that’s reversing scarring or discoloration, improving acne, tightening your skin or visibly reducing signs of aging.
A physician or a licensed aesthetician administers the facial and uses stronger concentrations of skincare products. They can also offer more powerful treatments like lasers, microneedling and cosmetic injections to enhance the effectiveness of your facial. Medical spas also have access to cutting-edge technologies that many traditional spas can’t provide, including Laser Genesis (a new type of laser hair removal), laser skin rejuvenation, or intense pulsed light (IPL), which reduces redness and sun damage by triggering collagen production in the deeper layers of your skin.
Choosing the right med spa
Choosing the right med spa to meet your skincare goals can be tricky. A reputable med spa should have a board-certified dermatologist on staff, and the therapists should certify in advanced skin care techniques. They should be able to create a custom facial treatment plan to address your specific concerns and goals by looking at the condition of your skin and how it responds to different treatments.
The best way to tell if you’re working with a quality med spa is to ask about the products they use. A quality med spa will only carry skincare products that have proven to work, and their aestheticians should be able to explain why they chose the products that they do.
While traditional spa facials can feel great and give you glowing, refreshed skin immediately afterward, their effects tend to fade quickly. Medical facials can deliver more dramatic and longer-lasting results because they penetrate the skin deeper than a simple face mask. They can stimulate collagen growth, treat sun damage and scarring, erase fine lines, lighten pigmentation and clarify the skin, and help you maintain youthful, healthy-looking skin for life. To maintain your facial’s long-term results, it’s important to keep up with regular appointments. Luckily, many medical spas have a variety of options for recurring facial services, loyalty programs and subscription services that allow you to pay a monthly fee for an ongoing, affordable treatment regimen that works with your budget.
Reduces Dark Spots
The Cambridge English Dictionary defines “rejuvenate” as “making one look or feel younger and healthier.” There are plenty of skincare products and treatments that can help you achieve healthy, youthful skin, but a facial massage can take your regimen to the next level. These rejuvenating facials stimulate circulation and drain toxins, helping your skin to appear more energized and glowing. They also reduce fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen stimulation, and they help to reduce dark spots by lightening the pigmentation.
Medical spas are a great place to have a facial that will provide both relaxation and results. Unlike a day spa, which usually offers facials that are the same for everyone regardless of their skin issues, med spas have aestheticians who understand the complexities of the skin and will design a treatment that is specifically suited to your needs.
For instance, if you have both acne and sun damage, the aesthetician may recommend a treatment that will include a chemical peel, which is a quick procedure that removes the top layer of dead skin cells, revealing smoother, fresher-looking skin. Alternatively, the aesthetician may recommend a microdermabrasion treatment, which is similar to a traditional facial but targets deeper wrinkles and uneven pigmentation, as well as tightening the skin.
A combination of ingredients
A facial can also benefit from the use of high-quality medical-grade skincare products, which are often stronger and more effective than the products found in retail stores. Using a combination of ingredients like hydrating hyaluronic acid and antioxidant-rich vitamin C, these serums help to brighten the appearance of the skin, even out the tone and texture, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Depending on the specific concerns, a med spa can offer a variety of other treatments that address skincare issues, including laser hair removal, fat reduction and non-invasive body sculpting. However, it’s important to check the credentials of a med spa and its aestheticians before deciding on what treatment is best for you.
Whether you want to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, treat acne scarring, reduce blemishes or address sun damage, there is no substitute for a facial from a licensed, medical aesthetician. By combining the luxury of a relaxing facial with the powerful results of medical-grade skincare products, med spa facials are the ultimate way to improve the appearance of your skin and rejuvenate it for life.
Reduces Acne
Medical spa facials are much more effective than traditional spa facials because they use stronger concentrations of ingredients such as retinol or glycolic acid. These higher levels of strength make these types of facials more effective because they penetrate deeper into the skin where aging and other problems occur.
Many different types of medical facials are available at med spas, including anti-aging treatments such as Botox injections, dermal fillers that reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and ThermiTight which tightens loose neck skin. These cosmetic procedures can help to improve your self-image and boost confidence in how you look.
If you are interested in trying a medical spa facial, be sure to find a reputable facility with experienced providers. Ask a few questions about the background and qualifications of the people who run the spa and read reviews online to get an idea of what other patients have experienced. Also, find out who selects the products and product lines the med spa uses and why. This can give you a good indication of whether or not the product line is of quality.
Numbing cream
Another important factor to consider is whether or not a med spa offers numbing cream for medical facials. At Voyage Med Spa, we offer topical numbing cream and laughing gas (Pronox) for our clients to ensure they are comfortable and completely pain-free during their facial treatment.
Unlike a regular spa facial, a medical facial performed by a certified dermatologist or a medical aesthetician under the supervision of the doctor. These professionals are well-versed in the anatomy of the skin and can provide more effective treatments for a variety of skin issues than a spa facial can. The doctor will examine your skin and discuss all possible options for achieving your desired results. For example, a doctor can suggest a medical grade facial that uses ingredients such as retinol, glycolic acid, and Vitamin C for effective exfoliation that will improve the tone, texture, and color of your skin, or IPL for sun damage reduction or hair removal, or FORMA for skin tightening.
