Our Naples Medical Spa Blog

Our advancing years inevitably take a toll on our skin with sagging and related facial concerns such as wrinkles, fine lines, folding, hollowing, and other age-related facial skin concerns. The medical and beauty industries have risen to this challenge with treatments and products designed to address these age-induced signs of decline. However, many people hesitate to try them due to concerns about invasiveness, effectiveness, downtime, duration, and other potential limitations. Skin type, age, and condition also play critical roles in the efficacy of these facial skin treatments, which means that what works for one person may not work as effectively for another.

Most people know that medical spas offer their clients a vast array of treatments designed to enhance beauty. They reduce visible signs of aging but may not be familiar with how the different procedures work. The names of some treatments can sound intimidating due to the medical-based devices and formulations they use. Terms such as “laser sculpting,” “microneedling,” “plasma pen,” “dermaplaning,” and “chemical peels” may invoke images of one’s skin getting assaulted by lasers, needles, plasma, scalpels, chemicals, or perhaps other tools that might be used by a mad scientist rather than a medical professional.
