Due to its innovative treatments and luxurious atmosphere, Clinique La Prairie was named the Most Progressive Spa by Condé Nast in 2018 and has won awards from Spafinder, Haute Grandeur, and the World Spa and Wellness Awards. Past guests at the spa have included the Pope, Charlie Chaplin, and many others.
In 2020, Clinique La Prairie introduced its first facility outside of Europe, located on the 15th floor of the five-star St. Regis Hotel in Bangkok. As Bangkok is considered to be the emerging wellness capital of Asia in addition to a world-renowned hospitality destination, a Clinique La Prairie location in the Thai capital embodies world-class luxury and health with a local flair.
This year, medical services have been added alongside its menu of spa treatments, which are predominantly focused on the wellness pillar. The medical treatments are conducted by a team of trained therapists and medical nurses led by Dr. Athip Nilkaeo, who is an internationally trained skilled aesthetic physician with experience in pharmaceutical, hospital, and academic settings.
“The treatments at Clinique La Prairie Bangkok are designed to help guests maintain a happier, healthier, and longer life,” says Jannissa Siriwises, Director of Spa & Wellness at Clinique La Prairie Bangkok. “This ranges from OligoScan health diagnostics and tailor-made therapies, in addition to innovative treatments and complete wellness solutions, not just aesthetic solutions.”
The introduction to the medical services at Clinique La Prairie Bangkok comes at a time when medical spa markets are growing, especially in Asia. A report from Business Wire cites that the global medical spa market size was valued at $13.82 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow to $47.14 billion by 2030 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) at 11.8% from 2020 to 2030.
The report notes that the Asia Pacific region is expected to have the highest CAGR during this period. Factors that increase CAGR are higher inclination to a healthier lifestyle, growth of demand for cosmetic and beauty enhancement procedures, growing fitness trends, and medical tourism in the region.
Clinique La Prairie Bangkok offers a variety of medical treatments including intravenous therapy with signature fusions, Botox, laser treatments, injectables, fat reduction and muscle toning procedures, as well as a diagnostic process through the Oligoscan. Being diagnosed through the Oligoscan is an instant and pain-free analysis of the body. It quickly determines measurements of the body’s minerals and recognizes deficiencies and excesses, traces oxidative stress, and determines aging and health concerns, and finds surplus metals that can lead to poisoning.
With this diagnostic, the therapists at Clinique La Prairie Bangkok provide a comprehensive customized health assessment aimed toward giving the client the best lifestyle. This is done through a holistic approach to health care, as well as lab tests for nutritional needs and physical activity monitoring.
However, there are plenty of other options for services aside from the Oligoscan. All other treatments and services carry forward Clinique La Prairie’s mission of longevity by boosting the immune system and anti-aging. Through its offering of Intravenous Therapy, Clinique La Prairie Bangkok allows customers to select four kinds of drips being: energy, immunity, detox, and longevity. Each of the drips brings improved health to the body and prevents inflammation, which is the cause of aging and disease.
Results from the medical services at Clinique La Prairie Bangkok come rapidly and last for a long time. With top machines like Thermage and Exilis Ultra 360 to sculpt and lift the face and body, clients can enjoy treatments that will be both medically and aesthetically beneficial. They can also enjoy toning and fat loss solutions with EMSculpt and fat freezing cryolipolysis from CoolTech. The Femme 360 treatment also offers rejuvenation which rebuilds collagen and elasticity.
These services and more make Clinique La Prairie Bangkok a world-class medical spa where customers can relax in the middle of hectic city life. Combining Swiss and Thai cultures in treatments, many won’t have to seek treatment as far away as Europe if Bangkok is closer to home.
“Bangkok is the logical choice for a guest seeking to combine excellent food, culture, and a restorative location for their treatments,” says Siriwises.
