Catherine Elizabeth Curtin, MSN, BSN, FNP-C, RN-BC
With over 18 years in aesthetic medicine, Catherine Curtin is a nationally recognized and sought-after aesthetic Nurse Practitioner specializing in complete facial rejuvenation and harmonization. In addition to running her private practice with offices in Bronxville and Bridgehampton, Catherine has the distinction reserved for only a select group of top-tier aesthetic professionals: She is a national trainer and speaker for the Allergan Medical Institute (AMI) This prestigious appointment speaks volumes—not only about Catherine’s deep expertise in facial anatomy and advanced injection techniques, but also her commitment to elevating the standards of care across the industry. Allergan, the global leader behind trusted names like Botox® and Juvéderm®, chooses only the most respected and skilled practitioners to educate other medical professionals.
As part of this role, Catherine travels throughout the country to provide in-depth, hands-on training to physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, dentists, and registered nurses—ensuring they deliver safe, natural-looking, and high-quality results for their own patients. When she’s not treating her own clientele at Beauty & Fly, she’s shaping the future of aesthetic medicine one injector at a time.
She’s 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.
Education and Training
Popular demand for her services comes from more than experience and knowledge. Her extraordinary eye takes Catherine to another level: she is an artist with an aesthetic that is essential to clients. She studies each client’s bone structure and is able to enhance the natural beauty of each person. Client after client raves over the confidence they feel after working with Catherine as she highlights their best selves.
The net result of Catherine’s skills and vision is trust. She builds a trusting provider-patient relationship thereby empowering her patients with the knowledge necessary to make healthy decisions about their aesthetic wellness.
“I have come to realize the impact that something as seemingly superficial as a reduction in facial wrinkles can have on a person. It is profoundly moving when a patient tells me that they feel so much better because they look better. When they hug me at their follow-up and tell me how refreshed and confident they feel, it’s extremely fulfilling and what makes my work so rewarding.”
Before founding Beauty & Fly in 2020, Catherine was the well-known face and premier aesthetic injector at Greenwich Medical Spa, an ever-expanding medical spa in the Tri-State area, where she played an integral part in their growth and expansion from 2007 to 2020.
Always on the cutting edge of the Aesthetic Industry, Catherine continues to expand her knowledge by attending innovative seminars and training with some of the most renowned Aesthetic Practitioners in the world. As an Allergan Trainer, Catherine is fortunate to be in proximity to world-class injectors, always learning new pearls and evolving to provide the most natural and safest treatments.
