Welcome to my site
About me
I am a native small town Maine girl that moved to the Biddeford + Saco area in 1995 and I have lived here ever since. I love this community, the culture & diversity, it's rich history, and have enjoyed watching it evolve over the years!
My own skincare journey, like many, began with acne in my younger years. I tried many skin care products/treatments over the years, I visited Dermatologists who prescribed multiple medications including topical and oral antibiotics and Accutane, all of which ultimately provided minimal results. Although I felt discouraged, rather than giving up, I sought to become informed, and later became a Registered Nurse. I have spent many years working as a Nurse and what I enjoy most is providing personalized care and attention to those I work with.
It wasn't until I had an "about face" in my nursing career that I decided to enroll in an Aesthetics program where I gained knowledge, technique, and skills to properly care for various skin types and conditions. I have advanced aesthetics training and have performed both invasive (injectables) and noninvasive cosmetic procedures and treatments. Ultimately, the foundation for the most optimum results for healthy skin are based on the notion that what you feed will flourish. Adopting a healthy lifestyle, prioritizing self care, and making a "skin-vestment" will help you put your best face forward! Whether you are looking for a relaxing facial, a glow and go event ready facial or HydroDermabrasion® treatment, or a professional skin consult with customized recommendations for clinically proven results, I look forward to working with you to achieve your skin goals!
