Our body medspa procedures offer cutting-edge solutions for comprehensive skin and tissue care. All of these medical spa procedures are safe and designed for optimal results.
SLDs emit light at specific wavelengths, which can penetrate the skin and underlying tissues. This light energy is absorbed by the cells, promoting cellular repair and regeneration that can improve skin tone and texture.
LLLT devices emit light at specific wavelengths that penetrate the skin and reach deeper tissues. The light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria in the cells, boosting cellular energy production and promoting healing, and improving your skin's appearance.
Hivamat (which stands for High-Frequency Vibration Massage) is a therapeutic technique that creates mechanical vibrations in the tissue. This results in a deep oscillation effect, which penetrates the skin, connective tissue, muscles, blood vessels, and lymphatic system. Combining Hivamat Therapy with Lymphatic Massage can accelerate the healing process, reduce pain and swelling more efficiently, and improve overall tissue health.

Sometimes, a fresh, youthful-looking complexion is hidden only by a layer of dead, dry skin cells. Microdermabrasion is performed to exfoliate the outer layer of dead skin cells, revealing the healthy skin underneath. This facial treatment also stimulates the production of collagen so that new layers of skin can become even more beautiful and smooth. One of the most sought after procedures, microdermabrasion is relatively easy and typically painless, it can be compared to the sensation of a cat licking the face while others describe it as a refreshing tingling feeling. Treatments can be performed on all parts of your body including the face, neck, hands, and chest.*

RHA® is a dermal filler can restore volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

Our primary commitment to Pittsburgh Center patients is combining the latest quality aesthetic procedures with thorough postoperative management to achieve anticipated results. To optimize the experience and psychological gain, we have initiated a Mind and Spirit section which prepares our patients for surgery while promoting overall health and well-being. These programs include stress management and the hCG hormone with restrictive diet in preparation for body contouring surgery.
A complete evaluation of your nutritional, psychological, hormonal and cardiovascular status and reserve will be evaluated. A customized program of life style changes, diet and medications will be designed for your preparation for surgery. We strongly advocate this plan for those planning on Total Body Lift Surgery.
For patients interested in losing weight, the hCG plan combines a calorie-restricted diet with injected hCG treatments. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a protein released during pregnancy that helps control metabolism. The hCG treatments stimulate the body to burn calories from the deep layers of fat that are stored around the hips, thighs, abdomen, and upper arms. As a result, patients are often able to lose weight where they desire it the most while still burning enough calories to avoid feeling hungry. The plan has been used safely in Europe and Morocco for over 20 years and is now administered at the Pittsburgh Center for Rejuvenation to help patients lose weight before their body contouring procedure so that optimal results may be achieved. As the FDA has not approved this medication for weight loss, hCG is being administered off-label.*
