Google Maps listings we classify as med spas, so they include dermatology and plastic surgery practices that offer med spa treatments and exclude spas without a Google listing.","A treatment counts when the spa's Google listing or website names it, so a spa with an outdated menu can be over- or under-counted.","Prices are published prices on med spa websites: we keep each spa's lowest posted price, which often is an introductory or member price, so the typical bill is higher.","Per-capita rates use Census Bureau Vintage 2024 population estimates (July 1, 2024)."]}
