Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness
Announces the Opening of Its "Doctor-on-Site"
Full Service Medical Spa
in West Bloomfield, Michigan

WEST BLOOMFIELD, MI, December 17, 2007 - Combining traditional day spa services with the most cutting edge medical aesthetic treatments, Blue Amber Medical Spa and Wellness has opened in West Bloomfield, Michigan. It is one of the only medical spas in the Detroit area that has a doctor on site full time - ensuring safety and comfort for every client.

Founded by John P. Sosa, M.D., a specialist in aesthetic medicine, Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness focuses on comprehensive, noninvasive treatments to renew and revitalize the skin. Services include specialty spa facials, chemical peels, laser rejuvenation procedures, injectable fillers, vein treatments and hair removal. The staff at Blue Amber works with each client to design a specialized treatment plan to fulfill their personal goals.

Unlike most other medical spas in the area, Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness requires injectable fillers, such as BotoxR, RestylaneR, JuvedermT and Juvederm Ultra PlusT to be administered by Dr. Sosa, a board certified medical doctor. Dr. Sosa will also be on-site to oversee his staff perform procedures such as intense pulse light therapy, microdermabrasion and facial peels and he will be the only one to do ActiveFXT treatments.

"I choose to be at the spa overseeing staff and performing certain procedures to ensure our clients' safety," says Dr. Sosa. "This is not required by law, but maintaining a high level of quality will set Blue Amber Medical Spa and Wellness apart from all the rest."

Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness is one of the very few local medical spas to offer the ActiveFXT laser skin resurfacing treatment. ActiveFXT is a revolutionary fractional laser procedure that helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring and uneven skin tone to restore skin texture and youthful appearance. It also stimulates the formation of collagen beneath the skin to plump it up and continue to provide improvement. This latest light resurfacing technique is performed in a single treatment that typically takes about a half hour. Since it is a fractional laser treatment only a portion of the skin is touched by the laser so healing time is reduced. A minimal post treatment downtime of about five days is typical and includes skin flaking and pinkness. Other procedures typically require weeks and sometimes months for recovery. The results of this "quick" procedure can last for years with proper measures.

Additionally, Blue Amber provides VisiaR complexion skin analysis which allows patients to view current damage of their skin through photo imaging. This ensures proper treatment recommendations and also allows patients to see how their skin responds to treatments from under the surface.

The new medical spa carries skin care product lines formulated and recommended for different skin types. It also has its own private-label product line, Blue Amber Cosmeceuticals which includes cleansers, creams, scrubs and serums. These are available for client purchase.

Blue Amber uses top-rated LumenisR equipment to produce the most effective results for all aesthetic treatments.

For individuals looking to give the gift of a spa day, Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness offers a variety of packages, individual treatments and products.

Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness is open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Tuesdays 10:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. and Saturdays by appointment. To schedule an appointment, call 248-538-9400. Blue Amber Medical Spa & Wellness is located at 5635 West Maple Road, in West Bloomfield, Michigan.
