Med Spa Services
Most med spas treat the surface. We start with your labs. Hair loss, acne, and skin aging all have internal drivers: hormones, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, gut health. We fix the root cause and treat the surface. That's why our results last.
Why Med Spa Results Don't Last
You've tried the facials. The peels. The topical creams. Maybe even Botox or microneedling. And it worked for a while. Then the acne came back. The hair kept thinning. The fine lines deepened again. The results faded because no one addressed what was causing the problem in the first place.
Most med spas work from the outside in. They treat what they can see. That makes sense on the surface, but skin, hair, and aging don't happen in isolation. They're driven by what's going on inside your body.
Hair loss is often a sign of low thyroid function, iron deficiency, or hormonal shifts. Acne that won't clear usually points to insulin resistance, gut dysfunction, or androgen imbalances. Premature skin aging tracks closely with declining hormones, chronic inflammation, and oxidative stress. These aren't cosmetic problems. They're medical ones showing up on your skin.
When you treat only the surface, you get temporary fixes. The underlying drivers keep running in the background. That's why results don't hold. That's why you keep going back for the same treatments. And that's why many people eventually give up on med spa care entirely, thinking it doesn't work. It can work. But not if you skip the biology.
“They keep saying everything comes back normal but I don't feel normal.”

The Med Matrix Approach: Lab-Driven Aesthetics
We don't guess. We test.
Every med spa patient at Med Matrix starts with the same foundation as our functional medicine patients: a 100-biomarker blood panel and an InBody 770 body composition scan. We look at the internal drivers behind your aesthetic concerns before recommending any treatment.
What we test and why it matters for your skin and hair:
- Full thyroid panel (TSH, free T3, free T4, reverse T3, antibodies): thyroid dysfunction is one of the most common causes of hair loss and dry, aging skin
- Sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA): hormonal imbalances drive acne, hair thinning, collagen loss, and accelerated aging
- Iron, ferritin, B12, vitamin D, zinc: nutrient deficiencies directly affect hair growth, skin repair, and wound healing
- Fasting insulin and glucose: insulin resistance fuels inflammation and is a major driver of hormonal acne
- Inflammatory markers (CRP, ESR): chronic low-grade inflammation accelerates every visible sign of aging
- Cortisol: chronic stress breaks down collagen, triggers acne flares, and contributes to hair shedding
Once we have your labs, one of our 7 providers reviews everything alongside your health history, lifestyle, and goals. Then you sit down for a one-hour visit where you go through every result together and build a plan that addresses both the internal cause and the external symptom.
That's what separates us from every other med spa in Maine. We don't start with a product or procedure. We start with your biology. The treatments work better and the results last longer because we're fixing what's actually wrong, not covering it up.
Our Med Spa Services
We offer targeted treatments for the three most common aesthetic concerns our patients bring in. Each one is backed by lab testing and built into a protocol designed for your specific body.
Hair Restoration
Hair loss in men and women is rarely just genetic. Low thyroid, low ferritin, hormone imbalances, chronic stress, and autoimmune conditions all contribute. We identify your specific drivers through testing, then build a restoration protocol that may include hormone optimization, targeted nutrients, PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy, and peptide therapy. When you fix what's causing the loss, regrowth becomes possible.
Acne Treatment
Persistent acne in adults almost always has an internal trigger. Hormonal imbalances (especially elevated androgens), insulin resistance, gut dysfunction, and chronic inflammation are the most common culprits. We test for all of them. Your treatment plan targets the root drivers while also addressing the skin directly. No more cycling through antibiotics and topicals that stop working after a few months.
Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Skin aging accelerates when hormones decline, inflammation rises, and your body stops producing collagen efficiently. Botox and fillers treat the visible result. We treat the biology behind it. Hormone optimization, peptide therapy, targeted antioxidants, and addressing chronic inflammation can slow and partially reverse skin aging from the inside out. When the internal environment improves, external treatments work better too.

FAQ
Med Spa Services FAQ
We offer hair restoration, acne treatment, and fine lines and wrinkles treatment. All three are backed by functional medicine lab testing. We identify the internal drivers behind your aesthetic concerns (hormones, thyroid, nutrients, inflammation, gut health) and build a protocol that treats both the cause and the symptom. That's why our results hold up over time.
Initial onboarding runs about $1,200 to $1,500 all-in. That covers your 100-biomarker blood panel, InBody 770 body composition scan, provider prep time, and your full one-hour provider visit. Follow-up visits are $275. Additional treatments like PRP or peptide therapy are priced separately based on your protocol. We accept HSA, FSA, CareCredit, and all major cards. New patients get a $100 voucher toward their first visit.
We operate outside the insurance model. Insurance-based care limits testing and treatment options, which is exactly why most conventional approaches to hair loss, acne, and skin aging fall short. By working outside insurance, we can run the full testing your skin and hair actually need and build a truly personalized protocol. We accept HSA and FSA accounts, CareCredit financing, and all major cards.
It depends on the condition. Acne patients often notice improvement within four to eight weeks as hormonal and gut interventions take effect. Hair restoration patients typically see early changes within two to three months, with more visible regrowth at four to six months. Skin aging protocols produce gradual improvements over three to six months. We recheck labs at 10 weeks and adjust your protocol at 12 weeks to make sure you're on track.
Anyone dealing with persistent hair loss, acne that won't clear, or premature skin aging. You don't need a referral. Most of our med spa patients have already tried conventional treatments (dermatologists, topical products, standard med spa procedures) without lasting results. If that's your story, there's a good chance something internal is driving the problem and testing will reveal it.
A regular med spa treats the surface. We treat the surface and the cause. Before any aesthetic treatment, we run 100 biomarkers of blood work and a body composition scan to identify what's driving your concern from the inside. Hormones, thyroid, nutrients, gut health, inflammation. Then we build a plan that fixes the internal problem while also treating the external symptom. That's why our results last where other treatments didn't.
