About Luma Aesthetics and Wellness

What is Luma Aesthetics and Wellness?

Luma Aesthetics and Wellness is a medical spa at 10150 Dorchester Road, Unit 229, Suite 15, Summerville, SC 29485. Most of its services are cosmetic: neurotoxins such as Botox, Dysport and Xeomin, dermal fillers, microneedling, PRP, chemical peels, skin care consultations and laser treatments. It also offers IV therapies and Weight Loss Therapy, which uses GLP-1 medication, so weight loss is one service among several.

Concierge Tox Parties bring neurotoxin treatments to a group of friends at a private event, and they carry a minimum guest requirement. Two people are named as prescribers. Cayce Tangeman, M.D. is a board-certified Family Physician and the medical director. Jessica Canaday, APRN, FNP-C is the owner and primary injector. Google lists the business as a weight loss service, with 5 stars from 36 reviews.

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices for weight loss or for any other service. It offers free consultations. Its stated payment option is a payment plan through Cherry Payment Plans, and it does not say whether it accepts insurance. No monthly price is given, so it does not say whether the medication is included in any price. Concierge Tox Parties mention group pricing, but you need to contact the clinic for a quote.

What should you ask before you book?

Start with the prescriber. Ask which of the two named prescribers signs the GLP-1 prescription, and how often you would need a visit to renew it. The clinic states: "A consultation with our licensed medical provider is required to determine eligibility and develop a customized treatment plan based on your individual needs and goals." Ask what follow-up visits and lab work cost, since ongoing monitoring is mentioned but no fees are given.

Ask which GLP-1 medication is used, since the clinic does not name it, and whether it is brand-name or compounded. Ask whether the medication is part of any monthly fee or billed separately. Ask whether telehealth is offered, because the clinic does not say. Ask how to cancel a program or a payment plan, and what Cherry charges on top of the price. Finally, confirm the Saturday hours by phone, since Saturday is by appointment only.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want cosmetic treatments and a weight loss program at one Summerville office, and you are willing to get the medication, the prescriber and the monthly cost in writing before you pay. If you need published prices or a named medication before you call, this clinic does not give those on its own, so call first.
