About Aesthetic Medicine MD

What is Aesthetic Medicine MD?

Aesthetic Medicine MD is a physician-led cosmetic practice at 2702 1/2 N Proctor St A, Tacoma, WA 98407. Most of its work is aesthetic. It offers injectables with Botox, Daxxify, RHA and Restylane fillers, collagen biostimulation including Sculptra, hair restoration with PRP, scar treatment, filler correction, and Upneeq, an eye drop it describes as a non-surgical eyelid lift. It also offers hormone replacement therapy, which its pages describe this way: "Women in Tacoma and surrounding areas seeking hormone replacement therapy receive individualized evaluation and treatment from a physician experienced in women's hormonal health."

Lupe Cueva, MD is the one person listed as prescriber. Her pages describe her as a board certified physician and a University of Washington School of Medicine graduate with over 15 years of medical experience. The practice states: "all treatments are performed by a medical doctor." The office is open Tuesday through Friday, 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM, with limited Saturday availability each month. You can book by calling 253-256-2665. Google reviewers give the practice 4.9 from 129 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for its treatments or its hormone therapy, and it does not publish a consultation fee. Hormone therapy consultations are cash pay only, with payment due at the time of the visit. A payment plans page is listed, but it gives no amounts or terms. Skin and hair consultations run one hour, and no fee is attached to them. Nothing published says whether a quoted price includes the medication, so ask for the full figure before you book.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask who signs the hormone prescription, and whether Dr. Cueva handles your follow-up visits. Ask whether the hormone medications are brand-name or compounded. Ask whether the cash fee covers lab work and any follow-up labs, since the practice does not say. Ask whether any part of hormone care can be done by telehealth, which is not addressed. For injectables, Sculptra and PDO threads, ask whether the price is per syringe, per area or per visit, and whether it includes the product. Finally, ask what a payment plan costs and how cancellation works, because neither is stated.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live in or near Tacoma, want aesthetic treatment or a hormone replacement visit, and can pay cash at the visit without a published price in hand. It is not a match if you need weight loss, peptide or longevity care, since none of those services appear on its pages.
