Bloom Medical Aesthetics, a med spa, recently relocated from its Main Avenue location to 113 1st Street NW in Magee. And owner Molly Mayhugh, NP, could not be more pleased with her new store front.
Mayhugh admits the med spa is a brand new environment to her. “I haven’t been in this world for a very long time. I don’t wear a lot of makeup. I washed my face with Dove Soap until about three years ago. I was green, I guess you could call it.”
Mayhugh believed Magee would be an ideal location for a med spa long before she ever thought about going into the business for herself.
Before opening in the fall of 2024, Mayhugh worked as a nurse practitioner with a pediatric primary care office in Monticello, her hometown. She loved it. However, a friend suggested she consider attending training for certification in medical injections. “I went and loved it, but I’m not going to do anything I feel like I’m not going to be good at it or proficient.”
Bloom med spa offers a variety of skin care including neurotoxin and filler injections, micro-needling, facials, massages, red light therapy, hair restoration and skin care products. Mayhugh employs Hollie Riley as esthetician and Haley Stafford, licensed massage Therapist. Abby Watson, RN, is spa manager.
Mayhugh prefers using the Daxxify primarily but now offers Botox at this new location. These help with facial fine lines and wrinkles, enabling muscles to move, she said.
She also explained that Bloom now offers bio-stimulators that are relatively new and fall under the category of skin rejuvenation. Some are injections and some are topical. Mayhugh said, “These stimulate the body to make new tissue, collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid, to repair volume loss, and to help with skin laxity, texture, wrinkles, all of that.”
In addition Bloom provides PRP platelet-rich plasma using the client’s drawn blood. The good stuff, as Mayhugh says, is drawn and injected or micro-needled.
“PDGF is like the newest thing on the market and we actually have it here: platelet derived growth factor.”
In the first nine months of operation Bloom brought in 253 clients. Most business plan projections hope for 150 in a year. “My goal is to have new clients every week. If I don’t, there is no growth. I have at least one new client every week since I’ve started,” Mayhugh explained. That continues at the new storefront as well.
“I thank God; that’s the only real reason I can figure out that all of this has worked out.”
