Our esteemed Master Esthetician boasts over 15 years of invaluable experience in the medical esthetics field. Her impressive background includes serving as a clinical laser trainer, where she had the honor of educating her peers in the industry about the intricacies of lasers and other cutting-edge devices. Courtney's passion lies in laser treatments, where she finds immense joy in enlightening her patients about the latest advancements in aesthetic treatments and skincare, enabling them to attain a natural and radiant "filter" of their own.
Jessica has been working in the aesthetic field since 2005. She was the “odd one” in her nursing class who went to school for nursing because she wanted to do lasers and injectable treatments. During her nursing career, she has also worked in cardiac nursing, trauma ICU, and all things periop (preop, interop, and post-op). She first trained with a renowned dermatologist in Beverly Hills before moving up to Washinghton state. Jessica loves helping people feel better about the skin they are in by fine-tuning problem areas or helping with positive aging through preventative skincare treatments. Jessica trains other providers through independent contracting and is a former Allergan trainer that currently trains independently on wrinkle relaxers and fillers.
Jessica trains for Allergan (the makers of Botox/Juvederm) and also trains independently on basic and advanced injection techniques. Jessica loves her career and loves helping people feel better about the skin they are in. She believes in a less-is-more approach for soft, natural results that brighten, refresh, and slow down the skin’s aging process. When she is not working, her favorite thing to do is be at home with her children and husband. She loves hiking, kayaking, and just being outdoors. She is a California girl born and raised and loves beaches, sun, and good Mexican food!
