The PrettyCity Skin Saver Survey

PrettyCity surveyed 5,500 women between the ages of 18 and 45 about their skin care habits and concerns. Not surprisingly, 61% of women reported that the biggest obstacle in their quest for advanced aesthetic treatments, from photofacials to injectables, was cost. The women surveyed also reported that their second largest concern was "finding a trusted medical professional" in a sea of Medical Spas, dermatologists, plastic surgeons and medical spa chains.

According to the survey, the Top 5 Medical Spa services women are most interested in, by order of popularity are: Botox®, Laser Hair Removal, Lip Plumpers such as Restylane® and Hylaform, Microdermabrasion and Chemical Peels. All of the Medical Spas participating in MedSpa Month must qualify as a proper Medical Spa according to the International Medical Spa Association (IMSA).
