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”!

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?

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 acid works immediately by pulling in water, therefore, increasing the volume where injected. 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 dissolve easily and last for up to a year.

There are many options for HA Fillers. To deliver dramatic enhancements, we use Restylane as well as Juvederm. You have more options and can get customized results.

What are Neurotoxins?

Botox or Dysport can temporarily improve the appearance wrinkles and fine lines with injectable neurotoxins. Repetitive muscle contractions can cause facial lines and wrinkles to form and get deeper over time. Botox or Dysport temporarily weakens these muscle contractions, making the skin appear smoother.

Common treatment areas include the forehead, frown lines, and crows feet. You can see results in as little as two days. However, they will gradually improve over two weeks. Results can last up four months if taken as directed.

What is sculpture?

Sculptra uses poly-L lactic acids to slowly restore facial volume. When injected it stimulates your own skin's natural ability to produce collagen slowly over time. The poly-L-lactic acids is gradually biodegraded over several months and replaced by a network of new collagen. The areas that may be treated include the temples, cheeks or nasolabialfolds as well as the jawline. Most people will need three treatments within a few months. After that, they only need one treatment each year. Your results may last for more than two years.

What is Kybella, exactly?

Kybella can be used to permanently remove fat cells. One to five Kybella vials may be required depending on the amount of fat. Multiple sessions may be required. 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 is an essential vitamin that our body requires in order to function properly. This injection may help with increasing energy levels, improving fatigue, speeding up metabolism, improving sleep patterns, increasing concentration, improving mood, and boosting the immune system to name a few.

What is a HydraFacial?

HydraFacial addresses all skin care needs with patented technology that cleans, extracts, and hydrates the skin.

HydraFacial super serums are made with nourishing ingredients that create an instant glow in just a few steps.

The first step involves gently exfoliating the skin and cleansing it. Then a light chemical peel is applied to help resurface the skin and prepare it for painless extractions. Next, the pores are cleaned out using painless suction and the skin is nourished. Last, antioxidants and peptides are infused into the skin to maximize the skin's glow. There is absolutely no downtime.

What is Dermaplane and how does it work?

Dermaplaning uses a medical-grade surgical blade to remove the surface layer of dead skin, 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. The technique may look similar to shaving, but it is much more effective because the blade being used is able to get right against the top layer of skin. There is no need to worry about the hair growing back darker- dermaplaning targets the vellus hair (peach fuzz) that grows back the same size and color. It does not appear thicker due to the way that the blade is used. This procedure is painless and requires no downtime.

What is Chemical Peel?

A chemical peel refers to a treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate the top layers of skin. Chemical peels are a great way to improve the skin's texture, radiance, reduce wrinkles, decongest pores, treat acne-prone skin and help with fine lines. Chemical peels can be performed in three strengths: deep, medium, or superficial. Improvement in the skin varies depending on your concerns and which peel is selected to address your needs. Multiple treatments are recommended for most people to get the best results.

What is Clear + Brilliant Laser exactly?

Clear + Brilliant laser is based upon advanced technology. Clear + Brilliant treatment is easy. Clear + Brilliant starts with a consultation. This allows you to discuss your concerns and determine whether Clear + Brilliant is right to treat them. From there, your practitioner can recommend a Clear + Brilliant Laser treatment regimen.

What is Microneedling, exactly?

Microneedling causes microscopic skin injuries and stimulates the body’s natural wound healing process. It also minimizes 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

We can't forget our brows and lashes! We all know that lashes are important in our overall aesthetics. We color the hair on our head so why not our lashes and brows? 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.

You can make it even more dramatic with a lashlift. Semi permanent curls can be achieved with this procedure that can last for up to six weeks. This will save you time, and allow you to get ready with a lash/brow color and/or lashlift.

Are you short on time? 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?

These products typically have higher active ingredient concentrations that anything you can 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 certain products may be more costly than the over-the-counter options, you can rest assured that you're getting high quality products that have been clinically validated to deliver optimal results.

This sounds fantastic, right?! We believe so. You'll see that we have our top picks from three medical-grade skincare brands: SkinCeuticals and SkinMedica.
