Alright so that headline, might be a bold claim at the moment, but RX Super Spa is a medical spa situated in Port Moody, BC just outside the main city of Vancouver. Our primary services are laser hair removal, laser skin rejuvenation, botox & filler and Bodysculpting for weight loss & cellulite treatment. RX Super Spa was opened in February 2020 just prior to the grand events that were to happen. Somehow we managed to come out thriving! We are now one of Port Moody’s favorite medical spa (or medspa /medispa for short) with hundreds of happy & satisfied customers.

In this article we are going to explore with you the different medispa services that are available and the machines we use to get you absolutely super results!

What Is IPL+?

IPL+ is a brand of IPL laser machines that are imported from France. The manufacturer, Eurofeedback has been in business since 1984 and holds 18 global patents on pulsed light technologies. For those of you that don’t know, IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light and is a safer form of laser than diode or CO2. With our IPL+ unit we are able to complete hair removal treatments in as little as 6 sessions vs. most platforms requiring 12-14 long & painful sessions (and that’s a plus!). You can learn more about IPL+ here.

What is StarBody Bodysculpting?

StarBody Bodysculpting is another unit from France that our Founder, Taylor Opheim, discovered through his network of manufacturers & suppliers that he’s built over the 10+ years he’s been in the industry. StarBody is really one of the most amazing & best body contouring treatment you can do for yourself. It is a holistic form of treatment that supercharges your body’s metabolism to help you burn fat faster, detoxify your system, and rejuvenate loose or sagging skin. What’s also really cool is that StarBody can also be used to temporarily relieve symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis. In addition, compared other forms of body contouring, like Coolsculpting, StarBody actually comes with many health benefits and no unsightly side-effects. You can learn more about StarBody here.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is one of our favorite methods of treating the skin and helping it look and feel it’s absolute best. As a minorly invasive treatment there are some aftercare protocols that must be taken seriously for the 24hrs immediately following the treatment. On the otherhand though, the benefits of Microneedling are many, from acne scar treatment to anti-aging to C-section scar removal, there are many things we can do with a Microneedling service.

What is France Laure Skin Care?

France Laure Cosmetics is RX Super Spa’s brand of choice for skin care. The number one reason for this is because of the fact that it is extremely gentle with the skin, only helping the skin what is should naturally be doing. Too many other brands, like Dr. ZO, are often too aggressive for most people’s skin and frankly a little too expensive in our opinion. Since 1970, France Laure is manufactured here in Canada and is a cruelty free, paraben and free of unnatural fragrances.

What is Botox?

Botox is the short form name given to the compound Botulinum Toxin. In its injectable form, Botox is completely safe to have injected. These days the old side-effects of Botox, such as droopy eyes or a completely expressionless face, are no longer frequent thanks to new techniques that have been developed to optimise the injection of Botox. What most people don’t know about Botox is that it is more of preventative treatment rather than an outright reversal treatment. For an immediate change to the face, make sure to keep reading! Check out our botox and filler services here.

What are Filler Injections?

Filler is an injection of Hyaluronic Acid gel that very literally “fills” in the different areas of the face where it is injected. This is great for removing any deep lines in the face that can make us look much older than we are, altering certain features of the face (such as lips, nose, jaw & cheeks), or removing dark circles from under our eyes. Hyaluronic acid is a completely natural compound found in the body that normally serves as the body’s main source of lubrication for the muscles and joints.
