The Medical Spa Concept
 Over
the last ten or fifteen years, aesthetic medical technology
has grown at an explosive rate. A scientific approach
to skin care that includes prevention and maintenance,
in addition to treatment of the damaging effects of
sun exposure, now allows us to achieve results that
were not previously possible. We can now also provide
pre- and post-operative treatments which speed recovery
and improve surgical results.
For any given aesthetic concern, there
are both medical and surgical enhancements which are
possible. Additionally, skin care treatment options are also available
which are less invasive than surgery, but more invasive
than typical medical spa treatments: BOTOX ®
injection for facial wrinkles and lines, collagen injection for lip enhancement and softening of deep facial folds
and creases, laser treatment of facial veins and rosacea,
and non-invasive laser collagen remodeling for permanent
improvement of fine wrinkles and increasing skin tone.
This explosion in medical aesthetic
technology has resulted in a market that is literally
flooded with new products, devices and procedures all
claiming to be the ‘latest and greatest’ or
the ‘next big thing’. A great deal of dedication
(and caution!) is required to sort through all of the
new (and often not-so-new) technology which is marketed
simultaneously to aesthetic professionals and
to the public. We take great pride in carefully investigating
new technologies, and in offering only those skin care treatments
which we feel are safe, reproducible, and not associated
with prolonged ‘downtime’.
Blue Water Spa
A true medical spa thus combines
pampering spa treatments with medical-grade skin care
treatments and products that provide visible results.
As a plastic surgeon, I believe wholeheartedly in the
importance of a professional, scientifically-based skin
care regimen. In my California practice, I frequently
referred surgical patients to local medical aestheticians
in order to prepare their skin for surgery, and to maintain
the health and vitality of the skin following surgery,
facial resurfacing or other procedures.
In my new practice we have fully integrated
the aesthetic surgery office and medical spa. The
advantage of this approach is that all of an individual’s
aesthetic needs can be met in one location, where the
combined expertise of the surgeon, nursing staff and
medical aestheticians is used to determine the most
appropriate treatment plan for each skin care client.
