New Medical Spa Services Now Available

A Comprehensive Approach to Medical Spa Care

Medical spa treatments have evolved far beyond the basic facials and body wraps of a decade ago. Today, the most effective medical spas operate at the intersection of clinical medicine and aesthetic care — offering treatments that are backed by science, performed by trained professionals, and tailored to each patient's unique skin type, concerns, and goals.

At Allure MD in Newport Beach, the medical spa services are designed as an integrated extension of the surgical and dermatological practice led by Dr. James Rosing, a Stanford-trained, FACS-certified physician with over 14 years of experience. This means that every treatment — from a hydrafacial to a chemical peel to a laser session — is informed by the same level of medical expertise and individualized planning that guides surgical procedures. The result is a medical spa experience that delivers real, measurable results rather than temporary cosmetic fixes.

Advanced Facial Treatments

HydraFacial with Customized Boosters

The HydraFacial has become one of the most popular medical spa treatments for a reason: it works. The treatment uses a patented vortex technology to cleanse, extract, and hydrate the skin in a single session. But what sets a medical-grade HydraFacial apart from a basic spa facial is the ability to customize the treatment with targeted booster serums.

At Allure MD, each HydraFacial begins with a skin assessment to determine which boosters will be most beneficial. Options include:

• Brightening boosters containing vitamin C and alpha-arbutin for patients dealing with sun damage, dark spots, or dull complexion
• Anti-aging boosters with growth factors and peptides that stimulate collagen production and smooth fine lines
• Clarifying boosters with salicylic acid and extracts that target acne, congestion, and enlarged pores
• Hydrating boosters with hyaluronic acid for dehydrated or barrier-compromised skin

The treatment takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes, requires no downtime, and leaves the skin immediately brighter, smoother, and more hydrated. Many patients schedule monthly HydraFacials as the foundation of their ongoing skincare maintenance plan.

Medical-Grade Chemical Peels

Chemical peels use carefully formulated acid solutions to remove damaged outer layers of skin, revealing smoother, more even skin beneath. The key word is "medical-grade" — the peels available in a medical spa are significantly more potent and effective than anything you can find in a store or even most day spas.

Allure MD offers peels at multiple depths to match each patient's concerns and tolerance:

Superficial peels use mild acids like glycolic or lactic acid at controlled concentrations to brighten the complexion, improve texture, and enhance product penetration. These peels produce little to no visible peeling and require no downtime — making them ideal for regular maintenance or as a first step for patients new to chemical peels.

Medium-depth peels use stronger formulations — often trichloroacetic acid (TCA) at higher concentrations or combination acid protocols — to address more significant concerns like moderate sun damage, deeper pigmentation, fine lines, and acne scarring. These peels produce visible peeling over 3 to 7 days and deliver more dramatic improvement in skin quality.

Deep peels target severe sun damage, deep wrinkles, and significant textural concerns. These are performed less frequently and require a longer recovery period, but can produce transformative results in skin quality and appearance.

Your provider will recommend the appropriate peel type and strength based on your skin type, concerns, treatment history, and the amount of downtime you can accommodate.

Laser and Light-Based Treatments

Laser Hair Removal

Unwanted body and facial hair is one of the most common aesthetic concerns, and modern laser hair removal technology has made permanent hair reduction safe, effective, and accessible for virtually all skin types.

The latest laser systems at Allure MD use advanced wavelength technology combined with built-in cooling systems to deliver comfortable, effective treatments. Key features include:

• Multiple wavelengths that can be selected based on skin type and hair color, ensuring safe and effective treatment across a range of patient characteristics
• Integrated cooling that protects the skin surface during treatment, making the procedure more comfortable and reducing the risk of side effects
• Large spot sizes that allow for faster treatment of large areas like the legs, back, and chest
• Precision tips for detailed work on smaller areas like the upper lip, underarms, and bikini line

Most patients require 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart to achieve significant permanent hair reduction. The laser targets hair follicles in their active growth phase, and because not all follicles are active simultaneously, multiple sessions are needed to catch each follicle during its growth cycle.

IPL Photrejuvenation

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments use broad-spectrum light energy to target pigmentation, redness, and vascular concerns in the skin. IPL is particularly effective for:

• Sun spots and age spots — The light energy is absorbed by melanin in the pigmented areas, breaking it up so the body can naturally clear it
• Redness and rosacea — Vascular IPL settings target the hemoglobin in dilated blood vessels, reducing overall redness and visible capillaries
• Uneven skin tone — By addressing both pigmentation and vascular concerns, IPL produces a more uniform, clear complexion

Treatments take 20 to 30 minutes, and most patients experience mild redness for a few hours afterward. Pigmented spots typically darken temporarily before flaking off over the following week, revealing clearer skin beneath.

LED Light Therapy

LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular processes in the skin. Unlike lasers, LED therapy does not damage the skin surface — it works by delivering light energy that penetrates to different depths depending on the wavelength, triggering biological responses that promote healing, reduce inflammation, and stimulate collagen production.

• Red light (630-660nm) stimulates collagen production and promotes wound healing, making it excellent for anti-aging and post-procedure recovery
• Blue light (415-445nm) targets the bacteria responsible for acne breakouts, providing a drug-free approach to acne management
• Near-infrared light (810-850nm) penetrates deepest, reducing inflammation and promoting tissue repair at the cellular level

LED therapy is completely painless, requires no downtime, and can be used as a standalone treatment or as a complement to other procedures. Many patients include LED sessions as part of their post-treatment recovery protocol to accelerate healing after chemical peels, microneedling, or laser treatments.

Body Contouring and Skin Tightening

Non-Invasive Fat Reduction

For patients with localized fat deposits that resist diet and exercise, non-invasive body contouring treatments offer a non-surgical alternative. These technologies use various mechanisms — controlled cooling (cryolipolysis), radiofrequency energy, or focused ultrasound — to target and destroy fat cells without incisions or anesthesia.

Non-invasive fat reduction works best for patients who are at or near their ideal weight but have specific areas of concern — a stubborn belly pouch, love handles, or under-chin fullness. Results develop gradually over 2 to 3 months as the body naturally processes the destroyed fat cells. While these treatments cannot replicate the dramatic results of surgical liposuction, they provide meaningful improvement for appropriate candidates with minimal to no downtime.

Radiofrequency Skin Tightening

Radiofrequency-based skin tightening treatments deliver controlled heat to the dermis, stimulating collagen contraction and new collagen production. These treatments can improve mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, jawline, abdomen, and arms without surgery.

Results are both immediate (from collagen contraction) and progressive (from new collagen formation over 2 to 3 months). A series of treatments typically produces the best results, with maintenance sessions recommended to sustain improvement over time.

Building Your Treatment Plan

One of the most important aspects of effective medical spa care is having a coherent treatment plan rather than a collection of random treatments. At Allure MD, every patient begins with a comprehensive consultation that evaluates:

• Your current skin condition — Including skin type, existing damage, texture, tone, and any active concerns
• Your aesthetic goals — What you want to improve and how you want to look and feel
• Your lifestyle — How much downtime you can accommodate, your sun exposure habits, your skincare routine, and your budget
• Your treatment history — What you have tried before and how your skin responded

Based on this assessment, your provider develops a customized plan that may include a combination of treatments — each selected for a specific purpose and sequenced for optimal results. For example, a patient concerned about sun damage, texture, and early aging might receive a plan that includes:

1. A series of IPL treatments to address pigmentation and redness
2. RF microneedling to improve texture and stimulate collagen
3. A medical-grade skincare regimen with retinoids and antioxidants
4. Monthly HydraFacials for ongoing maintenance and skin health
5. Quarterly MicroTox treatments for pore refinement and skin quality

This integrated approach produces results that no single treatment could achieve alone — and every element of the plan serves a specific purpose in the overall strategy.

What Sets Allure MD Apart

The quality of medical spa results depends on three factors: the technology used, the skill of the providers, and the clinical oversight guiding treatment decisions.

At Allure MD, medical spa services operate under the direct supervision of Dr. Rosing, whose background in both plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine ensures that every treatment recommendation is informed by a comprehensive understanding of facial anatomy, skin biology, and the full spectrum of available options — both surgical and non-surgical.
