Medical spas offer cosmetic procedures



Some of the most popular services:
• Botox
• Laser hair removal
• Fillers (like Restylane)
• Microdermabrasion
• Chemical Peels

A few years ago, the 31-year-old New York interior designer discovered Juva MediSpa, one of the country's first facilities to offer medical procedures like laser hair removal and Botox as well as traditional spa services. Now she goes there almost exclusively. Founded in 1999 by dermatologist Dr. Bruce Katz, Juva now has a staff of 60 and annual revenue growth of 20 to 25 percent. "When I opened it, a lot of my colleagues thought it was a silly idea," says Katz. "Now everyone wants to do it."
There are more than 1,250 medical spas in the United States today—up 50 percent from just a year ago, according to SpaFinder, which tracks the industry. President Susie Ellis says it's the fastest-growing segment, accounting for about 10 percent of all spas. But as the number has risen, so have concerns about the risks to patients. While cosmetic treatments like chemical peels and laser resurfacing can have more-dramatic results than a traditional facial, they can also cause lasting damage if done incorrectly.
"Many people just think these treatments will help them look better. They don't realize these are potentially dangerous medical devices that can leave permanent scars," says Dr. Marta Van Beek, an assistant professor of dermatology at the University of Iowa, who helped write a 2003 state law placing limits on who can perform laser and other "tissue altering" procedures.
A handful of other states, like California and Florida, are starting to implement similar restrictions. But most have not, so consumers should be cautious.
Don't be fooled by fancy décor, says Van Beek. "You can't judge the quality of the providers by how nice-looking the spa is."
Make sure to check with the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been filed against the spa.
Before agreeing to any cosmetic procedure, consult with a physician or dermatologist to weigh the risks and benefits. Find out who will administer the treatment at the spa and how much training and experience he or she has had. Ask if a doctor will be present. (Some spas have one on call, but not on site.) Check the price, recovery time and possible side effects—and how many sessions you may need for your desired results. Make sure the staff knows your medical history and allergies. And if you're given medication, check on side effects, drug interactions and proper dosage.
Both the risks and the prices are higher for medical cosmetic treatments than for traditional spa services. But if they are done correctly, the results can be dramatic. Weiner says her sunspots disappeared after a few microdermabrasion sessions. "My skin looked noticeably better," she says. Of course, sunspots can return, so she still gets monthly maintenance sessions. Having her dermatologist oversee her treatments gives her peace of mind, she says. The only damage Weiner worries about now is to her wallet.

Doctor fish




Doctor fish is the name given to two species of fish: Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. Other nicknames include nibble fish, kangal fish, little dermatologists and doctorfishen; in non-medical contexts, Garra rufa is called the reddish log sucker. They live and breed in the outdoor pools of some Turkish spas, where they feed on the skin of patients with psoriasis. The fish are like combfishes in that they only consume the affected and dead areas of the skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow, with the outdoor location of the treatment bringing beneficial effects. The spas are not meant as a curative treatment option, only as a temporary alleviation of symptoms, and patients usually revisit the spas every few months. Some patients have experienced complete cure of psoriasis after repeated treatments, but due to the unpredictable nature of the disease, which is strongly influenced by endogenous factors, this may simply be regression towards the mean.
Garra rufa occurs in the river basins of the Northern and Central Middle East, mainly in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. It is legally protected from commercial exploitation in Turkey due to concerns of overharvesting for export. Garra rufa can be kept in an aquarium at home; while not strictly a "beginner's fish", it is quite hardy. For treatment of skin diseases, aquarium specimens are not well suited as the skin-feeding behavior fully manifests only under conditions where the food supply is somewhat scarce and unpredictable.
In 2006, doctor fish spa resorts opened in Hakone, Japan, and in Umag, Croatia, where the fish are used to clean the bathers at the spa. There are also spas in resorts in Hainan, China, as well as Belgium, The Netherlands,South Korea, Singapore, Slovakia, Surat(INDIA), Indonesia,Malaysia, and Hong Kong. In 2008, the first widely known doctor fish pedicure service was opened in the United States in Alexandria, Virginia and later in Woodbridge, Virginia. They are used to help treat patients suffering from various skin disorders, including psoriasis and eczema, since the fish will eat and remove any dead skin.
