Thirteen local day spas have joined forces with Destinations Medical Spa (DMS), Southern California’s first and only doctor-managed mobile cosmetic care service that provides the latest in laser, Botox®, injectables and other spa treatments, to offer a la carte treatments to their clientele.
“From the traditional day spa client’s perspective, it gives them easy access to a host of cosmetic skin care treatments that are normally rendered in a doctor’s office,” explains Dr. Donna Richardson, DMS
rector. “For the day spa owner, it’s an easy, no-cost opportunity to add a profit center to their business since they know that many of their clients are going elsewhere to get these treatments.”
The 13 new day spa partners include:
• Aqua Bella Day Spa-Solana Beach
• Spa For One Sanctuary- Encinitas
• Laura Low Skin Care-Solana Beach
• Bellissima Day Spa-Escondido
• Oasis Day Spa-Escondido
• Sante Day Spa-Solana Beach
• Envisions Salon and Spa- Vista
• Spa ReNeau- Temecula
•Hutspa-Encinitas
• Oscar and Company-Alpine
• 20/20 Skin- Miramar/San Diego
• City Style Hair- Solana Beach
• 1 Day Away Spa- Rancho Penasquitos
Through DMS, the day spa partners now offer their clients a wider range of services including: • Laser Hair Removal • Laser Genesis: wrinkle reduction • Photo Genesis: Cutera IPL complexion blending • Titan: Skin Tightening • 3-D Skin Rejuvenation: the non-surgical facelift • Injectables: Botox, Restylane®, and CosmoDerm™ • Chemical Peels • Vibradermabrasion • Acne Therapy • Vein Therapy
“My clients are thrilled that they can now receive specialized cosmetic medical treatments at the same place they enjoy a massage and facial,” says Peggy Maynard, owner and esthetician at Spa For One Sanctuary. “It’s also a great way for me to grow my business.”
Destinations Medical Spa was founded in early 2007 by Richardson. Previously, Richardson served as a Southern California Kaiser Permanente physician for more than 30 years and is a Certified Associate of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery and a member of the Botox Cosmetic Physicians’ Network. DMS brings everything to the day spa: all medical devices and instruments, laser treatment equipment, medication, safety devices, medical personnel and applicable insurance coverage.
All procedures are competitively priced and each day spa partner receives a percentage of the service fees. There is no out-of-pocket cost for the partner day spa. “This is a win-win situation for the day spa client and owner alike,” says Richardson. All of DMS services are completely hygienic and delivered by a skilled and licensed medical staff.
The only cosmetic spa services DMS cannot offer are ablative procedures or treatments that require anesthesia.
