Most Underrated Treatments in Aesthetics

Welcome back to The Med Spa Method. I'm your host, Dr. Leslie Schweitzer, DNP, CRNA, APNP, owner of Lush Aesthetics & Wellness. Today, we're talking about four of the most underrated treatments in aesthetics. While everyone seems focused on Botox, filler, and the latest social media trend, some of the treatments that create the biggest impact on skin health and long-term results often get overlooked. We'll discuss why medical-grade skincare is the foundation of great skin, why chemical peels continue to deliver incredible results, why IPL is one of the best treatments for sun damage and discoloration, and why erbium laser resurfacing remains one of my favorite tools for skin rejuvenation.

SkinPen Microneedling

Welcome back to Med Spa Method — I’m Dr. Leslie Schweitzer, DNP, CRNA, APNP, owner of Lush Aesthetic & Wellness. Today we’re talking about one of my all-time favorite treatments: SkinPen microneedling. This treatment holds a special place in my heart because it was actually the very first device I ever brought into my practice — and years later, it’s still one of the treatments I personally love most. In this episode, we’re diving into what microneedling actually does, how it stimulates collagen production, and why it’s such a powerful treatment for acne scars, fine lines, texture, enlarged pores, and overall skin rejuvenation. I’ll also walk you through what to expect during treatment, post-care tips to help you heal beautifully, and how often you should be doing treatments to get the best results. If you’ve ever wondered whether microneedling is worth the hype — this episode is for you. Let’s get into it.

Girl Talk in the Med Spa

This week on Med Spa Method, Leslie and Gretta are catching up after Gretta’s vacation—sharing stories from an unforgettable Animal Kingdom catamaran boat trip, favorite travel moments, and a fun girls’ chat about the SPF products that made the cut (and the ones that didn’t). Real conversation, plenty of laughs, and a little skin wisdom along the way.

Radiesse: My desert island filler

This week on Med Spa Method, Dr. Leslie Schweitzer breaks down why Radiesse is one of her favorite injectable tools for creating natural structure, lift, and long-term collagen stimulation. From jawlines, chins, and pre-jowl correction to hyperdilute treatments for the neck, chest, and hands, she shares how she uses this versatile biostimulator in real practice. She also compares Radiesse to Sculptra, explores the science behind Type I and Type III collagen stimulation, and explains why some injectables do more than fill—they help rebuild. Because some fillers fill… some help rebuild.
