What to Look for When Choosing a Med Spa

Med spas rapidly appeared over the last decade, and treatments like Botox, filler, and lasers are everywhere. But not all med spas are the same.<br /><br />Baltimore plastic surgeon Dr. Carrie Houssock and NP Lindsey share how the industry has changed, and why who’s training and supervising the injector matters just as much as what’s being injected.<br /><br />They explain what “medical director” really means, how state laws vary, and why having a physician on site changes everything when problems come up. Learn what makes physician-led care different from a med spa that just checks the legal boxes.<br /><br />They walk through how training differs across plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and other medical providers—from years of formal education to quick certification courses—and why that difference impacts safety and results.<br /><br />Find out how to spot a high-quality med spa, which credentials matter, and which treatments carry higher risk.<br /><br />Learn more about <a href="https://www.jevplasticsurgery.com/skin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">non-surgical cosmetic treatments</a> at JEV Plastic Surgery.<br /><br />Read more about <a href="https://www.jevplasticsurgery.com/about/plastic-surgeon-baltimore/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Baltimore plastic surgeon</a> Dr. Carrie Houssock.<br /><br />Hosted by Baltimore plastic surgeon Carrie A.

Motiva Breast Implants: Which Is Right for You?

Motiva breast implants aren’t new to the world, but they are new to the U.S., and the first implant to be FDA-approved in 13 years. We’re excited to now offer them in our practice.<br /><br />Dr. Houssock and Danielle break down what makes Motiva different from the Natrelle implants we’ve always used and address your biggest questions about safety.<br /><br />Motiva implants come in two styles: Round, which maintains a full, perky look at the top, and Ergonomix, which moves with your body for a softer, teardrop shape. <br /><br />From their lower risk of capsular contracture to their ability to hold their shape beautifully, hear all the reasons we decided to bring them to our patients.<br /><br />Natrelle or Motiva? We love both. The right choice depends on your anatomy, preferences, and goals. During your consultation, we’ll walk you through the differences and help you decide what feels best. Picking your perfect implant is a true team effort.<br /><br />Learn more about <a href="https://www.jevplasticsurgery.com/procedures/breast/augmentation/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">breast augmentation</a><br /><br />Hosted by Baltimore plastic surgeon Carrie A.
