5 Factors to Consider When Choosing a Med Spa
A recent survey showed that 80% of adults under the age of 36 believe they “could be healthier.” One of the increasingly popular options for health and beauty services is medical spas. A full med spa can offer a wide variety of services that help you look and feel your best. But how do you choose the right med spa for your need? Let’s explore a few factors you should consider when comparing med spas.
Experience of staff: First and foremost, you need to ensure that you’re receiving med spa services from experienced professionals. Technicians at the med spa should undergo proper training and have plenty of experience under their belts. When you go for a consultation, you should ask the technician about their credentials, training, and experience. Cosmetic procedures like PRP hair treatment or microneedling/microchanneling can go wrong very quickly if not done right. When you decide on a med spa, you should be confident that you’ll be receiving your treatments from someone with the right knowledge and experience.
Level of comfort: You should never be talked into any procedure that you’re not comfortable with or knowledgeable of. Since comfort and safety should be your main priorities, make sure you choose a med spa that you feel comfortable with. Ask any questions you have as directly as possible so you can fully understand the treatments planned for your visit. If at any point you have a question or concern that isn’t addressed after asking for information several times, that’s a sign you should walk away. A select few med spa treatments can be significant and should not be taken lightly. Make sure you feel completely educated on the services you’re receiving, the technician who will be doing the services, and the med spa as a whole.
Convenience: Another factor to consider when choosing a med spa is convenience. Both the location of the spa and the services offered should be convenient for you. If you’re going to undergo more than one treatment, ask if you’ll have to make several appointments, or if the med spa can accommodate multiple treatments in one visit. Some services (like a dermaplane treatment and custom facial) may be combined. For example, you’ll likely be able to have PRP hair treatment and undergo IV therapy during the same appointment. Overall, make sure you’re getting the best services and then look for convenience so you don’t get carried away by stress.
Services offered: When choosing your med spa, it’s important to ensure the services you’re interested in, as well as personalized services, are offered. If you’re interested in something like an aquagold facial or Hydrafacial, it’s important to remember that not all skin types are the same and the technician should help you confirm that the service is right for your skin. If you’re interested in visiting an IV bar, make sure they offer the type of IV therapy that would be best for your lifestyle and needs. Whatever service you end up deciding on, make sure that it’s right for your body and your needs.
Price range: While price should not be the only deciding factor, for most people, a high price can be difficult to justify. Like most things in life, you get what you pay for. So, while it’s important to not spend an arm and a leg on your treatments, you don’t want to go somewhere too cheap, either. Paying a fair price will ensure you’re not only getting your money’s worth but that you’re also getting high-quality services. Prices that are too good to be true are often a bad sign. Some places may offer cheap prices but may not be using FDA-approved treatments! Do your research and make sure you go somewhere that is reputable. Your body is worth it.
Going to a med spa can be great for both your body and mind. There are tons of services including facials, hair treatments, and IV therapy that do wonders for how you look and feel.
