Med Spa Cosmetic Procedures Growing in Popularity: ASPS Report

Cosmetic Procedures | Medical Spa | Med Spa | Rancho Mirage CAAdvancements in technology have made minimally invasive med spa cosmetic procedures safer, more effective and more predictable over the years. Working people and busy mothers typically prefer non-surgical procedures because of the minimal downtime involved and the lower risk of complications. Results with these procedures are often more subtle and natural looking, which is a requirement of many patients.

A recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) discusses the growth in the total number of cosmetic minimally invasive and non-invasive procedures from 2000 to 2014. Dr. Suzanne Quardt (Dr. Q) is an eminent aesthetic surgeon providing such procedures through her state of the art facility called Dr. Q Medical Spa. The facility receives patients from Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and surrounding areas.

Medical Spa | Med Spa | Botox | Non Surgical | Palm Desert | La QuintaBotox is probably the most popular among all non-invasive procedures designed to reduce the facial signs of aging. This FDA approved treatment involves injected the targeted areas of the face with botulinum toxin to achieve almost instant results in terms of fading away of wrinkles and lines. Botox non-surgical treatment should be received only from a recognized and well-established medical spa that is fully equipped and certified to provide such procedures.

Botulinum toxin is one of the most powerful biological agents, and it must be administered only by an experienced Botox provider. Dr. Suzanne Quardt’s med spa is among the most professional places to receive Botox treatment. The facility is led by Dr. Q, who is a well-known plastic surgeon as well as a known expert for various outstanding, clean, and awesome non-invasive procedures. Dr. Q’s med spa receives patients from Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and nearby locations.

Botox Treatment from Dr. Q

Dr. Q’s medical spa provides Botox treatment for suitable patients who are keen to reduce wrinkles on the face, but do not wish to undergo an invasive facelift surgery. The non-surgical procedure is designed to smooth out frown lines as well as reduce the appearance of crow’s feet around the eyes. Dr. Q’s med spa provides Botox treatment also to reduce furrows along the forehead and skin bands on the neck. The goal is to help the patient gain a rejuvenated facial appearance and minimize the tired or angry look occurring due to facial lines.

Botox treatment at Dr. Q’s med spa is performed in a simple and efficient manner as an in-office procedure. Botox injections block the nerve signals that cause the facial muscles to contract. As a result, the muscle goes into a temporary relaxation mode, leading to an instant reduction in the conspicuous appearance of the facial wrinkle. Dr. Q provides Botox and other treatments to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and surrounding communities.

Fine Candidates

Dr. Q recommends that individuals in the age group of 18 and 65 can receive Botox treatment, if they are bothered by the appearance of facial signs of aging. People who have an allergy to botulinum toxin or other ingredients of Botox, suffer from an infection around the planned treatment site, have a disease related to muscles or nerves, have been through facial surgery or plan to have one, or pregnant or breastfeeding mothers should avoid Botox treatment.
