Richmond Plastic Surgeon Offers In-House Med Spa Treatments

RICHMOND, VA--(Marketwire - Mar 6, 2013) - Dr. Neil Zemmel offers a variety of surgical and nonsurgical facial procedures at his Richmond plastic surgery practice. His goal is to provide each patient with safe, effective procedures that yield natural-looking results and boost self-confidence. Richmond Aesthetic Surgery's Med Spa offers patients nonsurgical cosmetic treatments to replenish skin, reduce signs of aging, and improve common skin conditions to maintain a youthful, vibrant appearance.

Richmond Aesthetic Surgery's Med Spa offers a wide variety of nonsurgical treatment options including:

• BOTOX® Cosmetic
• JUVEDERM®
• Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing
• Chemical peels
• Medical grade facials
• Laser hair removal

Dr. Zemmel says surgical facial procedures are more invasive treatments that require incisions, anesthesia, and are performed in the hospital with an anesthesiologist. While surgical procedures provide a more dramatic change in appearance, some patients opt for less invasive, subtler approaches to facial rejuvenation. Dr. Zemmel notes that these nonsurgical treatments do not involve incisions or long recovery times, and serve as alternatives for patients who may not need invasive treatment to achieve their desired results.

Nonsurgical facial procedures provide benefits such as:

• Reduction of minor wrinkles
• Reduction of sun damage and age spots
• Reduction of minor scarring
• Soft tissue augmentation of the face
• Lip augmentation
• Treatment of thickened labionasal folds
• Tightening of skin
• Smoothing out discoloration or hyperpigmentation

Dr. Zemmel, a Richmond plastic surgeon, says that during their initial consultation at Richmond Aesthetic Surgery's Med Spa, patients will be given an overview of their options and a customized treatment plan to achieve their individual needs. The Med Spa also offers packages that include a series of treatments to help patients attain healthier-looking skin with a smoother, more youthful sheen.
