Top Med SPA Treatments That Are Worth Your Money In 2020

Non-surgical procedures have garnered massive popularity in the past few years as more people turn to relatively affordable medical solutions with low downtime. Besides, millennials are now looking for minimally-invasive anti-aging solutions to maintain young skin rather than waiting to address aging issues in their later years. Medical spa treatments are just the right tools to meet the demands of the millennials.

A medical spa can be said to be a hybrid of a medical clinic and a typical spa. You will find them offering services found in a doctor’s office while giving a spa-like experience. The medical spa industry is expected to grow by a massive scale in the coming years as more people get to know about them.

Here’s a list of Med SPA treatments to watch out for in 2020.

• Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal incorporates the use of laser devices to concentrate high-energy light to the hair follicle cells. The energy damages the cells and thereby hampers hair growth.

The therapy is precise, fast, and requires few sessions to keep hair growth at bay. Expect the target hair to be trimmed to a few millimeters above the skin before the procedure. The thickness, color, and location of the target hair as well as your skin color, determine the laser equipment settings.

• Laser Spider Vein Removal

Spider veins are those web-like veins that appear on the legs, feet, and face and are attributed to hormonal changes, injury, aging, and pregnancy, among other factors. Damaged one-way valves in veins result, causing the accumulation of blood in veins, weakening of vessel walls, and the resultant bulging manifested by spider veins.

If you are concerned with the appearance of spider veins, specialists at a medical spa can help fade them using laser technology. The professional directs highly-concentrated light to the blood vessels to make the veins disappear or fade gradually. The laser energy destroys the veins without damaging the skin. You don’t have to worry about incisions, downtime, and general anesthesia.

• BBL Photofacial 

Medical spas are now offering Broadband Light (BBL) photofacial, a therapy geared towards improving facial color, reversing sun damage, and improving the skin texture and tone along the process. When compared to intense pulse light (or IPL), BBL is a more accurate and safer method of skin treatment.

Any part of your body can be treated with BBL photofacial, with the usual suspects being the parts most vulnerable to sunlight damage. A BBL device generates energy that gradually heats the upper layers of your skin. The absorbed energy triggers your skin to regenerate new collagen. This way, BBL helps to restore the natural look of your skin while making it younger, more vibrant, and smoother.

BBL photofacial is non-invasive, safe and typically doesn’t require anesthesia, except for areas that your medical spa specialist may deem more sensitive.

• Stem-Cell Therapy

Stem therapy has gained massive popularity over the past few years, with more patients looking to reap its benefits. A stem cell is the body’s toolkit for repair. These cells rush to an injured part of the body to initiate the healing process. Nevertheless, a severely damaged area could prevent the entry of stem cells, and this hampers the healing process. This is where stem cell therapy comes into play. There are several types of stem cells, including embryonic and adult stem cells that can be manipulated to regenerate damaged tissue.

Stem cell implants have been effective in replacing cells damaged by diseases or cancer treatment procedures such as chemotherapy. Visit a medical spa for stem cell injections to equip your body with self-healing tools necessary for injury recovery, awakened hair growth, and disease management.

• Skin Tightening

As you age, the rate of elastin and collagen protein production in your body reduces. The proteins help to maintain firmer skin, and their deficiency may lead to skin laxity. Nevertheless, you don’t have to spend your fortune on creams and surgeries to have your skin tightened. Medical spas can help tighten and tone your skin with non-invasive laser technology. The heat generated by laser device stimulates collagen regeneration, making your skin smoother and younger. The therapy has less discomfort and zero downtime.

Conclusion

Medical spas offer a wide range of services that can help restore the natural beauty and youthful look and could be the best go-to facilities for millennials looking to live their lives fully. As you make new resolutions for the year 2020, be sure to try out one of the above medical spa treatments for a rejuvenated look and renewed confidence in the coming year.
