I’m an Aesthetic Nurse Injector in Bucks County & Philadelphia, PA. I began my career in Aesthetics in 2005. For me, this marks almost a decade as a Registered Nurse Injector and 18 years as a Licensed Aesthetician. I have performed countless hours of training under world- renowned physicians, assessing individual facial anatomy for almost two decades, mastering safety protocol, and completing ten of thousands of hours of hands on injecting.
I’ve worked in diverse settings as an Aesthetic Nurse Injector, including high end salons and day spas, medical spas and boutique private practices with concierge services.
I started my career path early on in my twenties pursuing Aesthetics, taking a risk to leave college for some time to obtain my license as an Aesthetician—I couldn’t wait to dive head first into knowing all things skincare, performing countless facials, laser therapies, and working in freelance makeup artistry for some time where I very quickly realized that facial anatomy is my passion! I obtained my Bachelors of Science Degree from the prestigious Drexel University in Philadelphia & the rest is history ...
I love the creativity and artistic aspects of injecting. I strive for the upmost natural looking results to enhance and restore youthfulness, so that you feel your best and maintain looking like yourself. Consistently working in an effort to never cross the line of treating someone to the point of overcorrection. Many of my existing patients would agree that I am not afraid to say no. My goal is to soften what bothers you & enhance your best features. Full facial assessment is my strong suit & absolute favorite part of my job. I love to meet a new face and see what I can do to get you feeling like your best self again!
I get to meet incredible people from all over the BucksMontCo & Philadelphia areas! Creating full face injectable balancing plans, appropriate & adequate skin care regimens and plans for utilizing all the amazing technology non-surgical aesthetics has to offer us!
I am an eternal student, challenging myself at the latest techniques & always keeping up to date in the evolving world of medical aesthetics.
To all of my long time existing patients, thank for the unwavering, continued support (especially over the last year) I couldn’t have done it without you! And if we haven’t met yet, I look forward to saving your face!
