Have you ever contemplated a cosmetic procedure? In the privacy of your own mind perhaps you mulled over the possibilities. There is no denying it now; from the survey we conducted among My Scoop readers, we found out that 88.6% of you might or would definitely consider plastic surgery in the future. In fact, 15.1% of readers have already had a procedure done while another 4.3% are looking into it now. But while many of us know the dangers involved in these risky surgeries, 55.7% of you know little to nothing about this sister treatment- Medi-spa services.
These non-invasive, little downtime options ensure that you get the results you are looking for without the threat of side effects and without the costs of surgery. I interviewed ten sources in the medi-spa industry to get the basics on the procedures offered. So the 94.3% of you who would choose a medi-spa procedure over a surgical procedure…read on!
Before you rush off to your local medi-spa, there are some consideration to make. Mona Spa, with location in Memphis, and Germantown Tennessee notes, “New is very scary. There are physicians who want to be the trend while they are disillusioned with insurance reimbursement medicine and do not have the skill or interest in providing a SPA service. High quality medi-spas have skilled and experienced staff of service providers specializing in laser, injections, and true SPA luxury services. These companies provide continuous staff education, maintain the laser performance, and continually market consumer information for safe treatments…we do, and have for almost 30 years.”
And Melisse at SpaFinder.com equated it best, “Med-Spa services are worth paying for an expert. It is your face, not a pair of shoes, so don’t buy it on sale. Consider it more like a contractor for your house; you want the job done right the first time.”
