About Glow Aesthetics Med Spa

What is Glow Aesthetics Med Spa?

Glow Aesthetics Med Spa is a medical spa with four offices in Yankton, Mitchell, Corsica and Hartford, South Dakota. Most of its menu is aesthetic: toxin treatments, dermal filler, microneedling, chemical peels, PRF, hair restoration and medical grade skincare. It also runs a medicated weight loss program, offers BioTE hormone replacement and peptides, and provides IV therapy and lab services. Semaglutide is the one medication it names.

Nicole Young, RN, Ashley Wright, NP-BC and Alexis Semmler, NP-C are the prescribers. The team describes a combined nursing experience of over 20 years. Its Google rating is 5 from 8 reviews.

The weight loss program starts with a free virtual consultation, which can be booked online. The first in-office visit is where the injectable medication starts, and check-ins follow every four weeks. In its own words: "During the virtual consultation, our medical director will conduct a thorough review of your medical history."

What does it cost?

It does not publish prices. It does not publish medication costs, and it does not say whether medication is included in any price. The first step, the virtual consultation, is free. It has advertised a microneedling special of $25 off a single treatment or $100 off a package of three, so ask whether that still runs. It links to Cherry Financing. It does not say whether it accepts insurance, and it does not publish membership or maintenance program terms.

What should you ask before you book?

Ask whether the monthly program fee includes the medication, and what the medication costs on its own. Ask whether the medication is brand-name or compounded. Ask what the check-in visits and lab work cost, and what the maintenance program costs once you reach your goal weight. Ask how you cancel or pause the program. Ask whether it bills insurance or takes cash only, and which office and prescriber will oversee your care. Since no hours are listed, ask what the hours are at the office nearest you.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you live near one of the four towns, want a medicated weight loss program with monthly check-ins, and are ready to pay out of pocket once you have the full price in writing. It also suits anyone who wants aesthetic treatments and hormone or peptide care under one roof.
