Med Spa Westridge
If you have been considering aesthetic treatments, whether for aging skin, acne scars, hair loss, or unwanted tattoos, the quality of the cosmetic plan depends on who’s evaluating your skin.
Invasive services at our Westridge, CA med spa are performed by a physician. Daphne Horowitz, MD has advanced training in energy-based aesthetic treatments and takes time during each visit to understand how your skin is responding and what should come next. Every plan looks different because every patient brings a different history, skin type, and goal set. That stays true whether you’re starting with one concern or mapping out a longer-term approach across several months. Schedule a consultation to discuss how our services can help.

Physicians Who Bring Medicine Into Aesthetics
The difference starts with who performs the treatment. Daphne Horowitz, MD came to aesthetic medicine after decades of clinical practice and brings that same whole-person approach to every cosmetic plan. She performs IPL, RF microneedling, fractional laser, and most other energy-device services in the practice. Paul Horowitz, MD is her partner at the practice and has focused on laser tattoo removal for 15+ years, leading our ZAP That TATT program. He also performs masseter Botox® injections for patients addressing jaw tension or face-shape concerns.
A Clinical Approach, Personalized at Every Visit
Each consultation at our med spa in Westbridge, CA starts with a full skin evaluation and covers your history, current skincare routine, and the results you’re hoping to see. From there, Daphne Horowitz, MD builds a plan based on what your skin actually responds to rather than a packaged protocol. Individualized care shapes our practice.
Services Backed by Clinical Evidence
Every service on our menu has clinical data behind it, and new technologies go through careful evaluation before being added. Before/after photos across IPL, RF microneedling, laser tattoo removal, and hair restoration are posted in our skin treatment results, grouped by service so you can see how different treatments develop across a session series. Many patients start with one concern and return over the following months to address others, because the care coordinates across visits rather than running each treatment in isolation.

Types of Med Spa Services We Offer in Westridge
Our service menu addresses the most common concerns patients bring in, from aging skin to acne scars, hair loss, and unwanted tattoos. Treatment plans typically combine multiple services over time based on what your skin needs and how it responds. A consultation narrows the options to what actually belongs in your plan.
- Acne and Acne Scar Treatment. For both active breakouts and the scars they leave, our targeted treatment options combine IPL, RF microneedling, fractional laser, and medical facials. Plans are customized based on skin type, scar pattern, and history, and typically involve a series of sessions across several months.
- Hair Loss Treatment. Thinning, shedding, or early hair loss often responds to non-surgical hair treatment that pairs fractional laser with KeraFactorMD® serum. No pills, no daily medication, no invasive procedures. A structured home care program supports results between in-office visits.
- Injectables (Botox® and Jeuveau). Neurotoxin treatments soften existing wrinkles and help prevent new ones from forming. We use a pricing methodology that matches medication quantity to each patient’s specific needs, so you only get what your treatment actually requires. Paul Horowitz, MD also performs masseter Botox® for patients addressing jaw tension, bruxism, or face-shape goals.
- IPL Photofacial. Intense Pulsed Light addresses sun damage, age spots, rosacea, and broken capillaries in a single non-laser treatment. Most plans run three to five sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.
- RF Microneedling with Potenza. Ultra-fine needles paired with radiofrequency energy stimulate collagen production for scar revision, textural improvement, and skin tightening with minimal downtime.
- Laser Tattoo Removal (ZAP That TATT). Paul Horowitz, MD performs Q-Switched Nd:YAG and Ruby laser tattoo removal across a range of ink colors and skin types, with protocols adjusted for tattoo age, location, and pigment density.
- Medical Facials and Chemical Peels. Our Esthetician performs dermaplaning, chemical peels, and acne facials to complement physician treatments and support results between visits.
Important Aspects of Westridge Med Spa
A visit to a med spa isn’t like a one-off cosmetic service. Most concerns require a series of treatments, and results build gradually as your skin responds and adapts. That’s why planning matters more than any individual session.
The consultation sets the direction. During your first visit, Daphne Horowitz, MD examines your skin, reviews your history, and asks about current skincare, recent sun exposure, and what you’ve tried in the past. All of that shapes which treatments are safe and which ones are likely to produce meaningful change. It’s not unusual to leave a consultation with a plan that looks different from what you came in expecting.
Medical history shapes eligibility. Pregnancy rules out most aesthetic treatments. Isotretinoin (Accutane) use within the past six to twelve months rules out aggressive energy work. Certain autoimmune conditions and medications affect healing and pigmentation risk, so screening happens before any energy-device treatment is scheduled.
Sun protection is part of almost every treatment plan. UV exposure affects outcomes between sessions, which is why daily SPF is built into every plan, and NCI research ties cumulative exposure to both photoaging and elevated skin cancer risk.
Treatment timelines vary across services. RF microneedling for scar texture typically runs three to five sessions. IPL for sun damage often takes two to four. Injectables show visible change within a week but need maintenance every few months. Your plan accounts for all of that, including how the different services space out and support each other over time.
Home care extends results. Medical-grade skincare between sessions matters for most plans, because treatments work best alongside consistent daily routines. Skin aging is a cumulative process, and daily maintenance affects how quickly results fade between visits.
How Can a Med Spa in Westridge, CA Help Me?
A med spa offers coordinated aesthetic care rather than isolated treatments. That’s what changes outcomes, especially for patients dealing with multiple skin conditions or long-term maintenance goals.
- Physician evaluation on every invasive treatment. Clinical judgment shapes decisions from the initial consultation through the last follow-up, because the same doctor who evaluates your skin is the one calibrating each session.
- Holistic skin assessment. A coordinated plan looks at your skin as a whole rather than concern by concern. IPL for pigmentation might pair with RF microneedling for texture and medical facials for maintenance, rather than each running separately. That coordination turns individual treatments into sustained results.
- Non-surgical aging support. Non-invasive treatment options can address fine lines, textural changes, and pigmentation without procedure-level downtime or recovery windows.
- Early detection of concerns you haven’t noticed yet. A physician evaluation can pick up subtle sun damage, pigmentation patterns, or textural changes that respond more easily when caught early.
- Coordination with your broader skin care. Rosacea, eczema, sensitivity, or other dermatologic concerns factor into every treatment decision, not as an afterthought.
- Customized pricing. Every plan is built around your specific services and session count. You receive a clear cost breakdown after your consultation based on what your plan actually includes.
- A relationship that develops across visits. Treatment plans often span months, and the med spa model means you check in, ask questions, and adjust along the way. What looked like the right plan in January may shift by June based on how your skin is responding, and the coordinated relationship makes those adjustments natural rather than disruptive.
