The spa business is booming as modern Americans see the need to care of themselves and look as good as they can at every age. Competition for available jobs and promotions even motivates males to join in the search of the fountain of youth. Lots of skincare options are advertised, ranging from creams, vitamin & herbal supplements, and facial gadgets. Some treatments work within limits for some types of skin improvement.
A lot of what you read or hear about skin improvement, weight loss, and cellulite reduction and fat reduction is hyped up claims. When a new skin cream or facial machine comes on the market the advertising makes over the top claims on the success of the treatment. The first guilty party for stretching the truth is the sales rep for the company selling the product. They make commission off the sales and do everything they can to convince the spa owner or physician that the product works wonders and that their business will make a small fortune if they buy this machine or sell this cream. They will have before and after pictures to convince the potential buyer to sign the purchase contract.
The business owner is excited to offer this wonderful service to clients, and even more excited to make that small fortune. Copies of before and after “proof” pictures and marketing material are passed along to the buyer. It takes a while for the buyer to realize the mistake and regret the sale, but then it is too late and they still have to pay for this machine or whatever the product is, so must continue to lie to clients that it works to make money to pay off the contract.
When new anti-aging treatments hit the market, the advertising claims raises a lot of false hope. It takes about two to three years for the public word of mouth to spread the truth about the disappointing results and waste of money. By then, a new gadget is out and it starts all over again. A reputable site to watch reviews on various products, treatments, and cosmetic procedures is www.realself.com. The site owner is not affiliated with any company and does not offer any of the services so you don’t have to be concerned that they are encouraging any services. What you do have to watch out for is false reviews out there written by sales reps and business owners who sell the service. Like I said before, it takes time for real people to get the truth out, and eventually they do. When a new treatment comes along, don’t let yourself get pulled in to false hope claims. Just sit back a while, wait and watch.
About Me

- I am a registered nurse running a medispa. It is a great option for nurses that wish to set their own hours. Nurses sometimes work in spas owned by physicians, but more run their own small facility giving personalized care to small groups of customers. The spa business is a wonderfully glamorous environment. The mainstays of spas are skincare, massage, hair removal, and manicures. Types of treatment and level of effectiveness differ between regular spas and medical spas. For those on a budget, many DIY options are available that are just as good or better. Let's explore what works, what is fluff, what is hyped, and what you can do at home.
