Both would be performed by an aesthetician. I would like to do a fractional CO2 laser for acne scars. I received a quote from a plastic surgeon's office for $950. I have also found a highly rated Medspa for the promo price of $165. I would think the Plastic Surgeon's office would be better, but it would be done by an aesthetician anyway and not the Doctor. The Medspa procedure would be done by the owner who has over 15+ years of experience. Also, how important is it to take antibiotics following this procedure?
