Put simply, a medical spa, otherwise known as a medi-spa or med spa, is part medical clinic and part day spa. Medical spas bring the relaxation of a day spa to the otherwise nerve-racking experience of going to the doctor’s. They have become more popular in recent years as more people are finding out it is better to knock off two tasks at the same location. If you are interested in experiencing the trend, then call us at the Harley Institute now to schedule an appointment for a consultation.
What a Medical Spa Offers
Medical spas, not surprisingly, specialize in cosmetic treatment. A medical spa combines the medically specialized knowledge and expertise of a supervising physician with the common offerings of a spa such as a massage, facial, and body treatments. It is important to remember that a medical spa has a supervising doctor as well as trained practitioners. In addition to the traditional services, a medical spa offers state of the art procedures otherwise found in doctors’ offices. Some of the services we provide at the Harley Institute:
- Skin Tightening: Harley Institute provides a variety of natural and non-invasive options for skin tightening. Laser Genesis, the office favorite, uses a heat-based laser to stimulate and assist the body’s natural healing processes in order to restore skin tone. Another option is the Titan Laser which uses infrared light to tighten skin by heating the collagen under the skin’s surface. Don’t forget to ask about Dr. Harley’s signature peel, a blend of exfoliants to improve the tone and clarity of your skin!
- Laser Hair Removal: There’s a lot more to experience in life. Stop spending your valuable time on shaving. Laser hair removal is safer and as painless as ever. At the Harley Institute, we carry the latest in hair removal: The Cutera Laser. Cutera Laser is the only one to treat darker skin without damaging the pigment. The refrigerated tip makes the laser hair removal process painless. Twelve treatments with the Cutera Laser is all that’s necessary to remove hair entirely and for good!
- Vein Therapy: Varicose veins and spider veins can be unpleasant and cause discomfort. These blue or purple veins are often misshaped and bulging. Typically formed on the legs, varicose veins are most often found on the back of the legs. Treatment methods include injection sclerotherapy as well as laser treatments.
