She has been practicing aesthetics since 2015 and, before entering the treatment room, built a successful career as a patient care coordinator in a cosmetic surgery practice. That unique experience gave her a deep understanding of both patient care and the aesthetic journey from consultation to results.

Kristan is committed to continuing education and staying at the forefront of the rapidly evolving aesthetics industry. She regularly attends advanced trainings, cadaver courses and educational conferences to ensure her patients receive the safest, most effective, and evidence-based treatments available. Her dedication to excellence recently earned her an invitation to speak at Aesthetic Next and an opportunity to further expand her education internationally.

 

Known for her warm personality, attention to detail, and genuine compassion, Kristan believes every patient deserves a customized approach. She takes the time to educate her patients, develop realistic treatment plans, and build long-term relationships focused on achieving healthy, beautiful skin.
