Practice outgrows Maryville location

Sometimes your lifes path takes you in an unexpected direction.

Such is the case for Dr. Kristen Jacobs, owner of Ooh La La Spa, Anti-Aging and Wellness.

Jacobs completed her residency at Southern Illinois University-Springfield and had been serving the Mount Vernon community as a family practice physician when she decided she wanted to try Botox.

She became educated in administering it and soon she was offering several other anti-aging procedures.

Fascinated with aesthetic medicine, Jacobs opened Ooh La La Spa, Anti-Aging and Wellness, a practice dedicated to patient health and cosmetic medicine, in Maryville.

Within four years her business had outgrown its Maryville location and Jacobs found a new home for Ooh La La at 110 Cottonwood Road in Glen Carbon.

Jacobs explained that the business just snowballed."

It started with Botox and then we did fillers and laser. Then we added chemical peels and facials, and its kind of grown from there which is awesome, she said.

All that growth prompted the recent move to Glen Carbon. Thankfully our business is building like crazy and we just needed the space, Jacobs said. Plus I live in Glen Carbon so I wanted to support the Glen Carbon community.
