The medical spa’s state-of-the-art technology coupled with expert care allows the medical team to provide personalized solutions to enhance each patient’s natural beauty and wellbeing.
The local medspa provides a wide range of minimally invasive medical treatments tailored to patient’s unique needs. Some of the services at the medspa include:
– Injectables — such as Botox, Jeveau, and dermal fillers for lips.
– Facial Balancing — cosmetic enhancements using injectables that create symmetry and more balanced facial proportions.
– Non-surgical Rhinoplasty — a nonsurgical procedure that uses dermal fillers to correct irregularities, and lift + reshape the nose, reducing downtime and risk for patients.
– Skin + Hair Rejuvenation — treatments that reverse hair loss and treat skin issues such as wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and more using RF Microneedling Cool Peel CO2 laser resurfacing, Hydraglow, and others.

– Weightloss Solutions – lose weight through semaglutide and tirzepatide injections.
Casey from The Montclair Girl team recently stopped by the Verona medspa and tried the Tetra CoolPool CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment with Dr. Rios. The treatment works by targeting the superficial layer of skin tissue, stimulating collagen production + treating fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage — revealing younger and healthier-looking skin. The treatment is extremely popular at the medspa and is minimally invasive with little downtime, perfect for those looking for a little summer refresh.
Casey emphasized that Dr. Rios and his staff made her feel so comfortable, and explained everything about the treatment in detail from start to finish. A numbing treatment was applied before using the laser, making the 20-minute process completely painless. She also mentioned that she has really sensitive skin, and was worried about redness, but but Dr. Rios answered all of her questions about aftercare, and even followed up with her the next day to see how she was feeling.

The True Bliss Team
The Northern New Jersey medspa was started by Dr. Alexander Rios, who serves as the medspa’s medical director and physician. His background in emergency medicine and experience in treating a wide range of trauma-related facial procedures led Dr. Rios to start True Bliss Medical. His expertise in dermal filler, facial balancing, and non-surgical rhinoplasty has drawn attention from patients all over the tri-state area.
