Nikky
Co-Owner / Aesthetician

I have always been obsessed with the beauty industry and everything about it. At a very young age my mom taught me how to take care of my skin, she always told my sister and me how important it is to wash your face and she always bought us the best products. It just stuck with me I guess. When I was finally of age to work, I always had a job in the beauty industry working at cosmetic counters. As much as l loved makeup, it was the skincare products that excited me more. I decided to go to esthetics school in 2000. It's been such an inspiring journey since. I’ve met so many great and knowledgeable humans along the way in this industry. I met Sean, who is not only my business partner but my bestie. And most importantly, I get to help people feel great about themselves.</p>
<p>I love how this industry is forever growing. I enjoy learning about new treatments, technology, and products that I can use in my treatment room to deliver the best results to my patients. When you love what you do it’s not work and I absolutely LOVE my “job”!

Sean

Co-Owner / Nurse Practitioner / Nurse Injector
I’ve always wanted to get into Medical Aesthetics ever since I can remember, but it’s a tough industry to get into. After practicing Primary Care for the under/uninsured in the Kansas City Metro area for a couple years as a nurse practitioner, I was able to breakthrough. In 2015, I joined a surgical organization where I was the lead nurse practitioner for the facial plastic surgery division. Working there provided me the foundation to my injection career. In 2017, I left this surgical organization and started working in a medical spa where I soon became the Lead Injector. It was at this medical spa that I met Nikky. After working together for a year we decided to open up Face KC Medical Spa in February of 2019. I am now a Master Injector who focuses primarily on injectables and I wouldn’t change a thing!
<p>It’s a wonderful feeling to be a business owner, but an even better feeling because I’m doing what I’ve always wanted to do-Medical Aesthetics.

What are HA fillers, exactly?

Juvederm is a hyaluronic-acid filler suspended in a gel. Restylane is also known as Restylane. This gel keeps the hyaluronic ag in place. The hyaluronic a immediately works by drawing in water. This increases the volume. This is great for deep wrinkles and folds on the face, as well as areas that require more volume like the cheeks or lips. These fillers are dissolved naturally with most lasting up to a year and some even longer.

There are various HA Fillers on the market. For subtle to dramatic enhancements, we've used both Restylane HA Fillers and Juvederm. You have more options and can get customized results.

What are Neurotoxins?

Botox and Dysport, injectable neurotoxins, can temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Repetitive muscle contractions can cause wrinkles and facial lines to develop and become deeper over time. Botox, Dysport and Dysport temporarily relax these muscle contractions. The skin will appear smoother.

Common treatment areas are the forehead, frown lines and Crows feet. While results may be visible within a few days of treatment, the process will take two weeks to complete. When dosed appropriately results may last up to four months.

What is Sculptra?

Sculptra, a biostimulatory injectable made of poly-L–lactic acid, helps gradually restore facial volume. It is injected into the skin to stimulate your natural ability to create collagen over time. Over several months, the poly-L-lactic acid is biodegraded and replaced with a meshwork of new collagen. Treatment areas may include, temples, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and jawline. The majority of patients will need three treatments in the first few months, followed by one annual treatment. Results can last more than two years!

What is Kybella anyway?

Kybella, an injectable treatment approved for permanently eliminating fat cells, is available. Depending upon the amount of fat present, up to five vials (or more) of Kybella might be required during one treatment session. Sometimes multiple sessions are necessary. The most common area to be treated is the submental, also known by the 'double-chin'. Once the desired aesthetic goal has been achieved, treatment can be stopped.

What is Vitamin B-12 Shot?

Vitamin B-12 can be considered an essential vitamin. This injection may improve energy levels, fatigue reduction, speed up metabolism and improve sleep patterns. It can also increase concentration, mood improvement, immune system boosting, and other benefits.

What is a HydraFacial?

HydraFacial is a revolutionary treatment that addresses all your skincare needs.

HydraFacial Super Serums are made with nourishing substances that provide instant glow.

The first step involves gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and reveal new layers. Next, a light chemical peel will be applied to smoothen the skin and prepare it in order for painless extractions. Next, debris is extracted from the pores with painless suction. Finally, the skin is moisturized. To enhance the skin's glow, antioxidants as well as peptides are instilled. It is quick and easy!

What is Dermaplane, exactly?

Dermaplaning uses a surgical-grade blade that is medical-grade to remove the skin's surface layer of dead cells, debris, and hair. A single dermaplaning session is able to remove around 2-3 weeks of built-up dead skin cells and debris from your skin. Dermplane is completely pain-free and non-invasive. While it looks similar to shaving, Dermplane is far more effective as the blade is able to reach the top of the skin. You don't have to worry about your hair getting darker. Dermaplaning targets the peach fuzz (vellus hair) which grows back in the same size and color. It doesn't give the illusion that the hair is thicker because of the way it is cut. This treatment does not require downtime.

What is a Chemical Peel?

Chemical peels are treatments that use a chemical solution to treat the skin's top layers. Chemical peels will help to improve the skin's texture and radiance, even out the skin tone, diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, help acne-prone skin, and decongest pores. Chemical peels come in superficial, medium, and deep strengths. The results of a chemical peel will vary depending on the concerns you have and what type of treatment you choose. Multiple treatments are recommended for best results.

What is Clear + Brilliant Laser and how do you define it?

Clear + Brilliant Laser is based on advanced technology, but getting Clear + Brilliant treatments is simple. Clear + Brilliant treatments start with a consultation with your skin care practitioner. This is to determine if Clear + Brilliant is the right treatment for you and to identify any potential problems. The practitioner will recommend a Clear + brilliant Laser treatment program. There are two handpieces that can be used to address skin texture issues.

What is an Insta-Glo Facial and how do you use it?

Insta-Glo Facials will make your skin glow for days! It is a combination of a customized ampoule and a customized HydroJelly masque that are suitable to address your skin concerns and needs.

First, clean and exfoliate your skin. The ampoule then gets applied to the skin. The HydroJelly masque can then be applied. The HydroJelly mask is then applied to your face. The treatment is quick and requires little to no downtime.

What is Microneedling and how can it help you?

Microneedling is a technique that causes micro-injuries to the skin. It stimulates the body’s natural wound healing process, while minimising cellular damage.

Depending on your results a series of 3 to 6 treatments may be recommended. This procedure is very quick and requires little downtime.

Lashes & Brows

Our brows and lashes are important! We all know that lashes are important in our overall aesthetics. Just as we color our hair, why not our eyebrows and lashes? By coloring the hair from the base to the tip, a lash tint or brow tint can give the illusion that they are fuller and more long.

Take it up a notch with a lash lift. Semi-permanent curls can be added to your lashes for up to six weeks. It's time to put down the mascara and curler and get ready for a lash/brow lift and/or tint.

Do you have a busy schedule and don't want to spend time on lash tints or extensions? Latisse is an alternative. You can get your lashes darker and thicker in as little 8 weeks with this at-home treatment.

What is Medical Grade?

What is medical grade skincare you might ask? To begin, these skincare products usually have higher active ingredients concentrations than the ones you might buy over-the counter. That means quicker results in less time. Additionally, medical-grade skincare products can penetrate your skin at a deeper layer than those that are less effective. Although some products might be more expensive than those you can buy over-the-counter, you will know that you are getting top-quality products with clinically proven results.

It sounds great, right? We think so too. So you will find our favorites products from three different medical-grade skin care brands: SkinCeuticals & SkinMedica.
