What Is a Medspa?
A medical spa, often called a medspa or med spa, combines the relaxing environment of a traditional day spa with aesthetic treatments performed under medical oversight. While day spas typically focus on services such as facials, massages and general skincare, medspas offer treatments that use medical-grade technology, injectable products and specialized techniques to address cosmetic concerns.
At Willis Cosmetic Surgery, our approach combines personalized attention with treatments selected according to each patient's skin condition, medical history and desired results.
Physician-Led Care at Our Medspa in St. Louis
Medical oversight is an important part of aesthetic treatment planning. At Willis Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Zachary Willis, our onsite medical director, provides physician oversight to support appropriate treatment selection, patient safety and individualized care.
Because aesthetic treatments vary in their techniques, effects and potential risks, a thoughtful evaluation helps determine which options may be appropriate for each patient. Our team considers your concerns, health history and treatment goals before recommending a plan.
Having an onsite medical director also supports a coordinated approach to care, particularly for patients considering multiple treatments or exploring whether a nonsurgical or surgical procedure may better address their concerns.

What to Expect During Your Medspa Visit
At Willis Cosmetic Surgery, our comprehensive consultations go beyond discussing individual treatments to consider your overall wellness, aesthetic goals, lifestyle and long-term expectations.
Book a Consultation
Your visit to our Ellisville office begins with an in-depth consultation designed to understand your concerns from the inside out. Our providers conduct a thorough assessment, review your medical history and discuss your goals to identify the treatments best suited to your needs.
Receive a Personalized Assessment
One of the key parts of our consultation process is personalized calendar planning. Have an event you're planning for? Your customized plan includes treatment recommendations, timing considerations and cost discussions so you can make informed, intentional decisions about your investment.
Develop a Custom Treatment Plan
Based on your assessment, we recommend treatments that fit your concerns and goals. Your plan may involve a single procedure or a combination of services performed over time. We also explain what each treatment involves, potential side effects and realistic expectations.
Attend Your Treatment Appointment
On treatment day, your provider reviews the procedure and prepares the treatment area as needed. The length of your appointment and the steps involved depend on the service selected. Some procedures are relatively brief, while others require additional preparation or treatment time.
Follow Aftercare Instructions and Plan Your Next Steps
After your treatment, you'll receive instructions specific to the procedure performed. Some services involve little interruption to daily activities, while others require a longer recovery period or temporary skincare adjustments. Follow-up appointments may be recommended to assess your response, monitor progress or plan future treatments.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Medspa Treatments?
Medspa services may be appropriate for adults who want to address cosmetic concerns without undergoing surgery. Depending on the treatment, candidates may be interested in softening facial lines, improving skin tone, restoring lost volume, reducing unwanted hair or addressing specific body concerns.
Good candidates generally have realistic expectations, understand the benefits and limitations of their chosen procedure and are willing to follow recommended preparation and aftercare instructions.
Eligibility also depends on factors such as medical history, medications, skin condition and treatment goals. Certain procedures may not be appropriate during pregnancy, with specific medical conditions or when active skin concerns are present.
It's also important to recognize that nonsurgical treatments have limitations. For patients with more significant skin laxity or excess tissue, surgical options may offer a more appropriate approach than medspa procedures alone. Our team can help you explore whether skin tightening or another treatment approach better matches your goals.
Why Patients Choose Willis Cosmetic Surgery
Choosing a med spa in St. Louis involves more than selecting a particular treatment. It also means finding a team that takes time to understand your concerns, explain your options and develop an appropriate care plan.
