Come to an AmSpa Medical Spa & Aesthetic Boot Camp for more business and legal insights and best-practices.
Let’s take a look at the Top 5 Most Popular Medical Spa Treatments:
1. Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a technique used to improve the appearance of the skin on the face,
neck or hands. A chemical solution is applied to the skin that causes it to exfoliate and
eventually peel off. The new, regenerated skin is usually smoother and less wrinkled
than the old skin.
2. Aesthetician Services
Aesthetician services involve skin care and beauty treatments such as facials, makeup
applications, and hair removal through electrolysis, waxing or other techniques.
3. Botox and Filler Injections
The injection of botulinum toxin–commonly known as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin–
has become very popular for reducing wrinkles and rejuvenating the aging face. First
granted U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to treat frown lines in 2002,
Botox remains one of the most popular cosmetic procedures on the market, and its
popularity continues to rise.
4. Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion skin rejuvenation is used as a method of exfoliation, as well as to
treat light scarring, discoloration and sun damage, and stretch marks. Treatments include
using a minimally abrasive instrument to gently sand your skin, removing the thicker,
uneven outer layer.
5. Photo-facial pulsed light (IPL)
Intense-pulsed light (IPL) is a technology used in various skin treatments, including hair
removal and photofacials. A handheld flashgun is passed across the skin, delivering a
spectral range of light that targets the hair or skin issue. These types of treatments may
also be called laser skin rejuvenation, photorejuvenation, or laser resurfacing.
