Nua Medical Spa brings an Irish connection and Charlottesville design to Pantops
Local architecture firm FORMWORK designed the Pantops space that houses this division of Charlottesville Dermatology.
Natural light and a view of the trees help define the lobby at Nua Medical Spa. The Charlottesville practice's reception area is part of a space designed by local architecture firm FORMWORK, placing a carefully considered setting around its cosmetic dermatology services in Pantops.
Nua is a division of Charlottesville Dermatology, with the medical spa located down the hall from the general dermatology practice. Its founder, Dr. Anna Magee, established her private practice in Charlottesville in 1994 after completing dermatology residency training in Dallas.
Magee's connection to patient care reaches further back. Raised in County Wicklow, Ireland, she helped in her family's pharmacy before pursuing medicine. Nua's name carries a link to that background: the practice explains that it draws on the Irish word for new or fresh, honoring her heritage while reflecting the spa's focus on renewal.
Private consultations are central to the way Nua introduces its services. A patient meets individually with a provider to discuss concerns, goals and possible options. The conversation creates space for questions about the services before a treatment decision is made.
The building's interior supports that emphasis on individual appointments. FORMWORK's design includes diffused lighting, a custom product counter and examination rooms arranged for the services provided within them. Separate space is available for patients preparing for or recuperating from procedures. Before-and-after photography and examination-room monitors allow images to be reviewed privately.
The practice also offers its own skincare line and product consultations, extending the conversation beyond an office visit. Staff can discuss the available products with patients at the spa, while an online shop provides another way to browse the range.
Together, the relationship with Charlottesville Dermatology, the consultation process and the locally designed space give Nua a distinct identity within the city's medical-spa offerings. The setting is near Interstate 64 and Route 250, with parking at its Pantops medical campus.
Nua Medical Spa is at 600 Peter Jefferson Parkway, Suite 270. Its posted hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Consultation inquiries can be directed to 434-956-4835 or info@nuamedspa.com.
