What is Shine Medical Spa?
Shine Medical Spa is a medical spa at 701 E Bay St, Suite 102B, Charleston, SC 29403, inside the Cigar Factory building downtown. It opened in 2022 as a sister location to Plastic Surgery of the Carolinas. Its main work is non-surgical aesthetic care: injectables and fillers, laser and light treatments, skin rejuvenation, facials and peels, dermaplaning, PRP, exosome therapy, sclerotherapy, and skincare products. The Weight Loss Program is one of its services, offered alongside those.
Craig Rowin, MD, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon, owns the spa and is its medical director. The prescribers listed are Craig Rowin, MD, Katie B. DeLapp, APRN, and Liz Vandyke Freer, PA-C. Katie B. DeLapp and Liz Vandyke Freer administer the weight loss program, and Dr. Rowin oversees it. The program includes metabolic and weight loss evaluations, regular check-ups, monthly vitamin packs, and weight loss medications for patients who are found to be candidates. It names tirzepatide, a GLP-1 injectable, as one medication it can give. Hours are Monday through Thursday, 8:00am to 4:00pm. Google lists it as a medical spa with a 4.9 rating from 147 reviews.
What does it cost?
It does not publish prices for treatments or for the weight loss program. What it does state is a couple of offers. New patients get 15% off their first non-surgical treatment. Patients who refer friends receive three $50 gift cards to share, and earn a $75 credit for each friend who completes a first treatment, up to $225. Whether the monthly program fee includes medication, and whether there is a consultation fee, is not stated. Insurance acceptance, HSA or financing options, and membership terms are not stated either.
What should you ask before you book?
Ask whether the monthly weight loss fee includes the medication or whether medication is billed on top of it. Ask which prescriber would write your prescription and how candidacy is decided. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded, and what it costs each month. Ask what the evaluations, check-ups, and monthly vitamin packs cost, and whether lab work is included. Ask whether there is a consultation fee, whether insurance is accepted, and whether HSA or financing is available. Ask whether the program can be handled by telehealth, since the clinic does not say, and how a monthly plan is cancelled. You can call 843.793.8799 to put these questions to the office.
Who is it a good fit for?
This is a good fit if you want skin or aesthetic treatments and a physician-supervised weight loss program from the same Charleston office, and you are comfortable getting a quote before you commit. It may not suit you if you need a published price to plan a budget around, since none is listed.
