What's your opinion?
Personally, I'm against injectibles, which seem to be the most popular "surgical" option at medical spas, but am for traditional cosmetic surgery procedures which can only be performed under the care of a plastic surgeon. I also believe that you pay for what you get, and if I were to elect a procedure, I certainly wouldn't want to shortchange myself only to wind up with dismal results.

I'm OK with injectables being performed at a Medispa, but only by of a board certified plastic surgeon. Too many cosmetic procedures these days are not, including dentists administering Botox. What's worse is that nursing "assistants" are giving injections--people that don't even have a medical license! I realize it's quite common these days and you could save a few hundred dollars going this route, but the risk is far too great. I often wonder about the skill level of laser aestheticians as well. An inexperienced laser tech could wreak havoc on your skin. I've heard lots of horror stories..

I know what my own opinion of this is for what I would and wouldn't do at a medispa, but I guess I have a greater question about if it trivializes the seriousness of the procedure overall?
