For the past 5 years I have depended on Nicole to look my best and always 100% pleased with results- she is simply the finest in my 20 years of using facial injectables! Nicole's extensive knowledge and skill as a medical professional, her passion for excellence with injectables and most sincere concern for beautiful outcomes for her clients are such a winning combo. Nicole clearly explains every procedure and her suggestions are always exactly what is necessary without over-doing anything. I also love that she keeps detailed records of all my procedures. Whether it is your first time or 20th year like me, Nicole is your best choice to look your finest!

I can’t recommend Nicole enough! I’ve been seeing her for neurotoxin and lip injections, and every single experience has been amazing. She is so knowledgeable and truly takes the time to listen to exactly what you want. My results are always natural and never overdone. I always leave feeling confident and refreshed!

I’ve been coming to Nicole for a little while now and can’t say enough nice things about her! I had injections at the dermatologist before finding her and honestly she is a better experience hands down. Recently I visited her and she has a new gadget called Hellovein that maps your veins that you can’t see with the naked eye. This is a GAME CHANGER! I used to always bruise in at least one place, but this time was absolute perfection. (See picture of her demonstration on my arm) Nicole goes above and beyond to ensure your comfort and satisfaction every time. 100% recommend!

I had my first experience with Nicole for tox and fillers. I was truly impressed by her skills with facial anatomy and injecting. Her professionalism and true love for what she does is next level. She took 10 years off my face and made me feel comfortable the entire experience.

Nicole is so sweet and always talks you through everything she’s doing. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and truly great at her craft. The results are amazing, and I’ll never go to anybody else!

Common questions

Will I look “done”?

The goal is to look rested and like yourself. We start conservatively and add more at a follow-up if you want it.

Does it hurt?

Most people feel brief pinching. Topical numbing is available, and many fillers contain a numbing agent.

How long do results last?

Neuromodulators typically last 3 to 4 months. Fillers vary by product and area, from several months to over a year.

Who isn’t a candidate?

Treatment may not be suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have certain medical conditions. We review this at your consultation.
