The provider
Dr. Nikia Burns
“I treat anatomy, not a menu. If a syringe is not the answer, I will tell you.”
Dr. Burns has eighteen years in clinical practice and has been injecting since 2017. Her training in dental medicine means she works from the underlying facial structure outward — bone, ligament, fat compartment, then skin — which is why plans here start with proportion and movement rather than a product list.
Every new patient begins with a thirty-minute consultation and leaves with a written plan, sequenced over months where that gives a better result. Nothing is treated the same day unless you want it to be.
“The goal is that no one can name what you had done.”

The team
Who you will see

Kelly Petersen
Registered nurse injector
Kelly works alongside Dr. Burns on injectable planning and treats across neurotoxin, filler and regenerative appointments. Patients consistently describe her consultations as unhurried and honest — she is as likely to talk you out of a treatment as into one.

Cierra
Licensed aesthetician
Cierra leads the skin side of the practice: peels, IPL, resurfacing and the home regimens that make in-office work hold. She builds treatment courses around what your skin can tolerate rather than what would be fastest.

Alexis
Patient coordinator
Alexis manages scheduling, intake and follow-up, and is usually the first voice you hear from the practice. She keeps treatment courses on their intervals so nothing drifts out of sequence.
