How to Choose the Right Med Spa: 7 Questions to Ask Before You Book
Your Guide from Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio of San Antonio
Let’s be honest with ourselves here, there are many med spas to choose from out there, but what makes a med spa the right med spa? We know choosing the right med spa can feel overwhelming, so in this post, we’ll be going over what questions you should ask to ensure you’re choosing the right med spa.
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio of San Antonio, we know how important it is to be able to trust the professionals who are touching your skin and helping you look your best. Not all med spas are created equal. Asking the right questions can help you avoid poor service, wasted money, or worse: bad results.
Here are 7 of the questions you must ask when vetting med spas in your area to help you look and feel your absolute best!
1. Are the Providers Licensed & Experienced?
This is a non-negotiable aspect of any good med spa. Medical aesthetics work should always be performed by licensed, experienced professionals. This is especially true when it comes to advanced treatments such as injections, lasers, or other skincare treatments requiring true expertise.
Ask:
Who performs the treatments here?
What are their credentials?
How many years of experience do they have with this service?
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio of San Antonio, all of our services are provided by licensed estheticians with extensive, advanced training in both skincare and safety.
2. Do They Offer a Personalized Consultation First?
If a med spa attempts to push a treatment on you without assessing your skin first and foremost and hearing your skincare goals, that’s a red flag. Everyone deserves personalized care, not a standard solution, especially when it comes to skincare.
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio, each and every new client starts with a detailed, thorough consultation. We truly assess your skin, listen to your skincare goals, and make thoughtful, professional recommendations tailored specifically to you.
3. Is the Space Clean, Comfortable, & Professional?
A clean, calming environment will say a lot about how serious the med spa takes your overall safety and comfort into consideration. Sterilized tools, professional feeling and looking treatment rooms, and a warm, welcoming staff should be the baseline, not a bonus feature.
When you first walk into Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio of San Antonio, you’ll notice our med spa space is very much designed with you in mind. Our space is peaceful, spotless, and serene, because you should always have the best experience, and your results should mirror this same experience with our med spa.
4. What Products & Technology Does the Med Spa Use?
The overall quality of a med spa’s equipment and products actually matters a lot. Is the med spa using name-brand products and devices? Do they stock top-of-the-line, recognizable brands or simple, cheap knockoffs?
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio, we only use the most trusted, high-quality equipment and product lines. All of our products are hand-selected, professional-grade skincare we use ourselves.
5. Do They Have Real Reviews & Before/After Photos?
Any reputable med spa should be very proud to show off client results and testimonials.
Look for:
Google reviews
Before-and-after photos
Client testimonials on their website or Instagram
We’re always happy to share our glowing feedback from our amazing clients throughout the greater San Antonio area, and the results really do speak for themselves.
6. Are Their Prices Transparent?
Look out for any vague pricing or unanticipated upsells. Any trustworthy med spa will always be upfront about what’s included in the pricing, what to expect, and whether or not a treatment is actually necessary.
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio of San Antonio, we believe in always providing honest pricing with none of the pressure. If we don’t think you need something, we’ll always tell you. And if we do happen to recommend a service, we’ll thoroughly explain why, without any of the extra fluff.
7. Do You Feel Comfortable & Cared For?
This question is all about gut instinct. Did the staff at the med spa actually listen to your needs and goals? Were you rushed, or were you respected? Do you feel like a number, or do you feel like the staff actually enjoyed interacting with you?
At Splendid Skincare + Brow Studio, you’re never just another appointment on our calendar. We focus on building real relationships with each and every one of our clients. We provide the style of care that makes you feel supported, seen, and beautiful; both inside and out.
Bonus Tip: Don’t Be Afraid to Ask Questions!
The best med spas will always want you to be informed. If an esthetician seems frustrated or annoyed with any of your questions, or chooses to avoid answering your questions, then that’s not the right med spa for you.
We’re here to help through education, empowerment, and guidance every step of the way!
