What is a Medi-Spa?

What is a Medi-Spa?There are many nonsurgical treatments for beauty, and spas and salons can offer high quality facials, massage, masks and wraps to help you look and feel better.  They are often beautiful spots which cater to customers.  Why should you go to a Medi-Spa?

A little over 10 years ago, doctors who do mainly cosmetic surgery, especially plastic surgeons, began thinking it would be a good idea to offer spa services to patients.  It was a nice compliment to surgery and laser treatments.  The results were mixed, depending on the doctor.

If a physician wants to make a little extra money doing peels, massage and facials, and has poorly trained staff handle patients in unoccupied rooms that do not offer a luxury experience, they often do poorly.

At the ySpa, the Medi-Spa of Yager Esthetics, we built specific suites for each spa treatment to maximize the  patient experience.  Only Registered Nurses and Licensed Estheticians provide treatments under the my supervision.  Each treatment is tested for effectiveness and safety before it is offered, because we will never invest in technology that we are not sure will be of benefit to our patients.

At ySpa, as in any good Medi-Spa, your advantage is that we can offer prescription strength products, peels, and treatments, as well as laser and IPL treatments which require a doctor’s supervision.  This means more effective options, and the chance to correct bigger cosmetic problems.

If you have a great facialist, or love your spa’s pampering and results, I encourage you to remain loyal.  If you are searching for a more effective treatment that your salon does not provide, visit us at ySpa, or whichever Medi-Spa you trust.
