I am a Registered Nurse and Licensed Aesthetician.
I started my nursing career in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). I left the hospital in 2019 and found an amazing job working as a Case Manager for an infusion pharmacy. I loved the job but missed patient interaction.
In January 2021 I started learning Neuromodulators/Filler and love it. I have set up a studio and am currently accepting new patients. I love helping people feel beautiful and confident!
When I’m not working, I spend my time with my two Boxers, Benjamin and Birdie. I love home decor, travel, and spending time with friends and family.

The number of units required will vary from person to person and is dependent on the area being treated, your lifestyle, and your natural metabolism.
When does it start to work & how long does it last?
Typically, Botox starts to work within 2-4 days and will peak on day 14. Treatments will typically last 3 months.
How often can I have neuromodulator injections?
You can dose up to every 90 days.
Which neuromodulator is right for me?
This will be discussed during your consultation. Botox choice varies from person to person. Furthermore, it is encouraged to switch brands occasionally to avoid Botox tolerance.
How does it work?
Tox works by gently blocking communication between the nerve and muscle in the treated area. This relaxation allows the overlying skin to smooth, giving a more youthful, lifted appearance while maintaining natural expression.
FILLERS
How long does it last?
On average, fillers last 9-18 months and depends on the specific product used, the amount and the patient’s history and lifestyle.
What are the side effects?
Common side effects are bruising, swelling, redness, mild pain and tenderness. Avoid ibuprofen and alcohol at least 72 hours prior to procedure to avoid additional bruising.
How does it work?
Dermal fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid (HA) — a naturally occurring substance in your skin that binds water and adds structure. When strategically placed beneath the surface, filler restores youthful volume, supports collagen, and enhances definition instantly.
Why do we love it at RESTORE
Our approach is art-meets-anatomy. Every treatment is customized to your unique facial structure and aesthetic goals — whether that’s a hydrated “lip refresh,” a subtle contour lift, or full facial balancing. The goal: You, but more confident.
ACNE AND SCAR TREATMENTS
Is this for active acne or scars?
We treat both. Your consultation will determine whether immediate acne control, scar remodeling, or a combination is the best approach.
How many sessions will I need?
Active acne often improves within weeks with medical therapy; scar treatments typically require a series of 3–6 procedures spaced 4–8 weeks apart.
Is there downtime?
Downtime depends on the chosen treatment. Many options have minimal downtime (ADVATx, superficial peels), while deeper peels or microneedling may cause redness and peeling for several days.
Can treatments cause initial worsening?
Some therapies can cause temporary purging or redness as the skin renews; this is usually short-lived and managed with your provider's guidance.
