What is it about Reverse Gravity that sets you apart from other aesthetic practices? We genuinely care about patients and their outcomes. I want my patients to feel the best about themselves. Sometimes, that even means saying “no.” And I will say “no.” I will always give my patients 100% of my time and attention and I will always be honest about what they need and don’t need. I truly want them to feel good about themselves when they leave my oce. Medical Aesthetics is a rapidly growing field, a lot of people may think about it as being part of the beauty industry, but it is still the practice of medicine. When looking for an aesthetic practice, ask questions about schooling, training, complications, etc. Patients should feel confident in their choice for their aesthetic practitioner. 2. What would you say the di erence is between a good and bad consultation? A good consultation should include a full-face assessment, which is part of our practice at Reverse Gravity. I will always listen to my patients and will make recommendations based upon their wants and concerns. Along with my assessment and physical exam, we will always discuss realistic expectations. Each treatment is personalized to the individualized patient. Aesthetics is not a one-size- fits-all business. 3. What would you say to a new patient who’s feeling overwhelmed and has no idea where to start the process? Don’t feel overwhelmed.

A little goes a long way with the right technique and placement. I pride myself on hiring capable, confident, highly trained injectors that are passionate about aesthetics. 4.
