What is a
Medical Spa?
In general, a medical spa is a blend between a medical clinic and a day spa, a facility that operates under the supervision of a medical doctor. Medical spas can treat facial and skin conditions like acne and acne scars, sun damage, brown spots and redness. Treatments can vary between spas, but you can usually get laser treatments, micro-dermabrasion, chemical peels and injections to reduce wrinkles. With a professional staff of registered nurses and laser medical estheticians, CreekSide Spa Skin & Laser Center is tightly integrated into Dr. Stevens’ aesthetic surgery practice, and combines pampering spa services with medical-grade skincare and laser treatments. CreekSide also provides all the services you might expect from a destination spa including facials, signature massage, nail care, semi-permanent cosmetics, and a variety of packages perfect for yourself, or that someone special.
