 | | Medical Spas Worth the Saved Money or Too Risky? | | by Jo Oliver, Sep 30, 2008 | | In 2007, there were 2000 medical spas in the United States. These hybrid spas are rapidly growing in number and popularity. Regular day spas have long offered an array of services that appeal to the one stop shopper. You can get a manicure, facial, massage, and wax all in the same trip. Medical spas operate under the same appealing premise. A patron can get medical peels, Botox & Restylane injections, laser surgery and pulse procedures, photo facials, microdermabrasions, plus all the other regular day spa beauty treatments. Another appeal is that the medical services offered at medical spas are often cheaper than visiting a plastic surgeon or dermatology office. Often it means the difference in hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars, per procedure. However, don’t jump up and down in glee just yet. | | Comments(3) Liked It: 8 |
