After 15 years of working as a journalist, Dr. Melissa Gray realized she needed to make a change-a radical one. She returned to school, graduating in 2009 from the University of Alabama School of Medicine in Birmingham, AL. Dr. Gray completed her residency at Montgomery Family Medicine Residency Program to become board-certified in Family Medicine.
Since 2012, she has gone on to build an extensive patient base as a physician at Waddell Center Family Medicine in Athens. She also serves as Associate Director of Amedisys Hospice Care in Huntsville. For several years, she worked with clients in Madison, injecting fillers and Botox and prescribing weight loss medications.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a noninvasive laser facial that uses photorejuvenation to banish brown and red spots caused by hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne scars, broken capillaries, and rosacea by removing damaged cells at the deepest levels of your skin. Beautymarx, our med spa in Athens, uses the M22TM by Lumenis to deliver Optimal Pulse Technology (OPTTM) to treat these conditions more comfortably and more effectively.
Botox(R) and Xeomin are neurotoxins strategically injected into your face to relax the muscles and minimize the appearance of wrinkles. By reducing the muscle activity that causes wrinkles to form, they greatly improve the look of moderate to severe lines between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and around the eyes.
Microblading uses a semi-permanent pigment pressed into the eyebrow to mimic the growth of your existing brows to - creating a bolder, natural look. Schedule at Beautymarx med spa! Eyebrow shaping is grooming your eyebrows-typically by tweezing or waxing-to suit your facial features.
By following along the natural shape of your eyebrows and getting rid of all the unnecessary hairs, your new eyebrow shape will open up your face and flatter your eyes.Eyelash extensions are semi-permanent lashes hand-glued to the top of your natural lashes. With proper care, lash extensions can last for 6-8 weeks, or until they naturally fall out like your lashes do.

Dr. Grey's mission statement for her med-spa practice is as follows:
“I’m about supporting anyone who wants to make a change. If that’s by getting rid of a few pesky wrinkles or a double chin, then I’m excited. If I can help on a deeper level, like helping someone get rid of self-doubt or a negative self-image, then I’ve really done my job.”

For a few months, I had been researching LHR and, from my research, I felt that it was a process I needed to get started on but just didn't know where or how. Ironically, a staff member of Dr. Grey's came into my place of

I would recommend Dr. Gray and her staff to anyone seeking to enhance their natural beauty. They are kind, patient, and professional. It really is a one stop shop here in Athens for all things beauty- lips, face, brows, weight loss- they do it all with amazing results. No need to drive to Madison or Huntsville. Beauty Marx has all the top notch technology and beauty supplies. So lucky to have them here in Athens!!

I absolutely love Dr. Gray and her staff! They are so personable and professional. I have had micro needling with PRP and have really noticed a difference in how my face looks and feels. It feels tighter, looks smoother and younger; has more even skin tones and my pores are smaller. I used a face age app and it said I was 10 years younger than I am. Now that’s a win, WIN!
