A fair price means little if the person doing the treatment is not qualified. This guide lists signs of a quality med spa that a Jacksonville Beach reader can check before asking for a quote.
Who runs the spa
ASPS says the gold standard is a med spa run by a physician with specialized training in the treatments offered, typically a board-certified plastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon or dermatologist.
For a longer list, see the ASPS blog on what to look for in a quality med spa.
Check the credentials
ASPS also says that before booking your appointment, you should take the time to verify the credentials of the medical director, supervising physician and any provider who may perform your treatment.
Ask for names, not job titles. If combining treatments in one visit is suggested, ASPS's article on which noninvasive procedures complement each other and which clash is worth reading first, since the quote will carry more than one line.
Signs that show up in the quote
A quote should name the provider, the treatment and what is included. If it leaves out the person who will do the work, ask why.
ASPS's article on how nonsurgical treatments can enhance natural beauty at any age is a good companion read for the goals conversation.
Who performs the treatment, in writing
A ballpark comes before anyone has checked what you need. A firm figure comes after, and it says who performs the treatment and what the price covers.
Get that figure in writing before you pay.
