New Website Features Med Spa Treatments & Hair Removal in Los Angeles

Marina Del Rey, CA (PRWEB) November 11, 2011

Dr. Grant Stevens, a renowned board-certified plastic surgeon at Marina Plastic Surgery Associates, has launched a new website for The Stevens Institute(http://www.thestevensinstitute.com/), a full-service medical day spa at Marina Plastic Surgery offering non-surgical services including injectables, skin care, and hair removal for Los Angeles women and men.

The new site provides detailed information about the extensive menu of options for "no downtime" facial rejuvenation treatments available at the institute, which Dr. Grant Stevens created to complement his growing plastic surgery practice.

"The new website reflects the extensive array of skin care technology and treatments that we offer," Dr. Grant Stevens says. "The site focuses on the most common skin care concerns that our patients experience, such as sagging skin, spider veins, and cellulite. We've organized those concerns in a personal treatment plan section that allows patients to locate the issues they want to correct and then build an online plan to discuss with us." Dr. Grant Stevens' partner, Dr. Michelle Spring, adds, "It empowers patients to recognize that their aesthetic goals are achievable when the institute staff and they work together as a team."

For example, if a patient chooses "wrinkles " as an area of concern, then the website scrolls down to reveal non-surgical alternatives to a facelift in Los Angeles, such as injectable fillers, chemical peels, and laser skin rejuvenation. Other popular services include skin health, such as GentleWaves?, and body contouring, such as SmoothShapes?.

"Current and prospective patients can also go directly to our menu of treatment options," notes Dr. Michelle Spring. "For example, one of the most frequently requested services in Los Angeles is BOTOX? injections. Many women and men come to the site knowing they want to find out more about this popular treatment."

Another extremely popular treatment is laser hair removal. "We offer two options for achieving smooth, hair-free skin on the body and face: laser hair removal and waxing. And that variety of choices is true in every category. I take pride in the fact that we provide a complete menu of 'no downtime' rejuvenation solutions for every cosmetic goal, skin type, and age," states Dr. Spring. She continues, "Also, CoolSculpting? by ZELTIQ?, which is a non-invasive alternative to liposuction treatments, has become increasingly popular among our patients."

While on the site, visitors can sign up for the medical spa's newsletter, which includes the latest news on facial rejuvenation and other treatments.

"We also frequently offer specials in our newsletter," says Dr. Grant Stevens. "The newsletter serves as an adjunct to our new site, helping current and prospective patients stay up to date on our newest services to enhance their appearance. The wonderful feedback that my staff and I have received on our new site shows that we are accomplishing our mission: to provide patients with an online resource that captures the essence of who we are, what we offer, and how they can easily and effectively achieve their aesthetic goals for a lifetime of beauty."

Dr. Grant Stevens is the medical director of Marina Plastic Surgery Associates (http://www.marinaplasticsurgery.com) in Marina del Rey, CA. He is a board-certified diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons and the International College of Surgeons. Dr. Stevens is the director of the USC Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship and Aesthetic Surgery Division, on the editorial board of Aesthetic Surgery Journal and on the board of directors of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.
