Day Spa or Medical Spa?

Apr 14, 2022 | Blog, Skin Care, Uncategorized

What is the difference between a spa and a medical spa? Firstly, a medical spa provides more invasive treatments and services for a variety of skin conditions, like fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun damage, and acne.  Day spas typically provide less invasive cosmetic services like massages, pedicures, manicures, facials, and mud baths. The biggest differences between a traditional day spa and a medical spa are the types of procedures that are offered.
Secondly, minimally invasive procedures that can’t be done at the average day spa can be performed at the medical spa under the supervision of a licensed medical professional.  Med spas are affiliated with, overseen, or run by a medical doctor in the state of Florida. While not every procedure is done by a doctor, they are performed under the supervision of the doctor.
Medical spas themselves vary widely, depending on where you go are decidedly more clinical. While day spas focus on relaxation, most medical spas are driven by results.
