Medical Spa Growth Industry
Day
spas, which are the fastest-growing segment of
the spa industry, are incorporating medical services at
a fast and furious pace. Some day spas offer minor surgical
procedures, like mole removal or laser hair removal. Others
offer treatments designed to help clients prepare for, and
recover from, cosmetic surgery.
Over the past decade, a number of plastic
surgeons and dermatologists have incorporated skin care
into their practices by hiring estheticians to provide
a range of pre- and post-operative spa services as well
as beautifying and "medical-grade" anti-aging treatments
- so-called because they can only be administered by or
under the supervision of a physician.
More recently, these physicians have
gone a step further by adding spa services to their medical
practices or by creating separate, stand-alone day spas
that also give clients access to many of the services
available in their medical practices

For
as low as $189/Month, you
can offer medical-grade microdermabrasion treatments in
your practice.
Microdermabrasion is the use of an extremely
fine mist spray of crystals used to remove the outermost
layer of skin to reveal younger, firmer skin under
damaged skin. Microdermabrasion is an effectively
painless substitute to abrasive chemical and laser
treatments. This procedure does not require anesthesia,
recuperation time is relatively painless, involves
nominal risk and is effective for most skin types.
