Meet the Founder
Catherine has seen trends come and go, technologies evolve, and products rise in popularity, but one thing remains constant: her commitment to safe, natural-looking results that honor each patient’s individuality. Experience doesn’t just mean she knows how to use the tools, it means she knows when, where, and why to use them. It’s the difference between doing a treatment and delivering a transformation.

Philosophy
Catherine moved from acute care to aesthetic medicine at 39, and she has had the treatments she offers on her own skin. Four principles guide how she plans each face: a natural result, trust, a precise eye and skills kept current.
Beauty is individual, and everyone possesses beauty. I help each Patient realize and maintain their best, most natural, and confident self. Realizing your natural beauty and achieving your aesthetic goal is my main objective, and I employ all the tools and resources available to help you get there. Maintaining your best self well into your yonder years is absolutely real! I have built my career helping people just like you accomplish just that…natural and beautiful results!
My work is founded entirely on trust. You trust me with your face, and I commit to honoring that trust. By keeping pace with the rapidly changing world of aesthetics, I can weed through the overwhelming options by identifying the best resources on the market and extracting the best products and solutions specifically catered to you. If I feel you may need treatments that I cannot provide, whether surgical or a device that I do not offer, I will direct you properly and help you weigh your options.
My work spotlights your face, and your face communicates so much… Aesthetic treatments are a wonderful tool for maintaining and enhancing just that. When implemented precisely, injectables can accentuate your best features and improve your least favorite, enhancing your natural beauty and leaving you with the best version of yourself… radiating confidence!
My work is centered on cutting edge skills and a well-honed eye, both of which are critical when using injectables. I maintain my skills, study faces, and hold myself to the highest standard so that when you trust me with your face, I can pledge to honor that trust with expertise.
Catherine's Go-To
Most plans combine treatments: a peel with microneedling, NOUVAderm with Vivace, a neuromodulator before filler. Results build across visits, so no single appointment has to do too much.
Botox, Dysport and Daxxify each work a little differently on cosmetic lines. Catherine chooses based on how your muscles move, so lines soften and your expression stays.
Restylane and the RHA family are the fillers used most here. Catherine places small amounts where volume has been lost and checks the result before adding more.
Microneedling with regenerative serums and topicals, plus Vivace RF and Agnes RF precision microneedling. Radiofrequency tightens skin and refines texture and pores, over a course of visits.
NOUVAderm resurfaces sun damage, texture and pigment, with a defined recovery period. Catherine combines it with Vivace in the same plan when skin needs both resurfacing and tightening.
Sculptra builds collagen over several months. Catherine uses it when the whole face has lost volume and support.
A stamped microchannel facial that delivers neuromodulator, hyaluronic acid and vitamins just under the skin surface. No downtime, and the glow lasts for weeks.

FAQ
A nurse practitioner holds a master's degree and is licensed to diagnose, prescribe and treat. In aesthetics that means finding the cause of a change in the skin before choosing a treatment for it.
Some concerns need a surgeon, and Catherine refers to oculoplastic and facial plastic surgeons for those. Thin under-eye skin often needs skin treatment before volume, and in that case the plan starts with skincare and resurfacing.
Pace University, MSN in 1998, after six years of hospital nursing that began at NYU Medical Center. That is why Catherine takes a full medical history. Injectables became her full-time work in 2007.

How much to place at a first appointment. Early on, Catherine corrected fully in one sitting. Now she treats conservatively and adds more at a return visit if the healed result needs it.
When nobody can point to it. People say you look well and cannot say why. Over-filling is harder to undo, so Catherine adds more at a follow-up.
