At Very Well KC, skincare isn’t just about surface glow — it’s about whole-body care that supports your skin and your nervous system. Our esthetician services blend therapeutic results with calming, integrative touch so you leave feeling radiant, grounded, and truly cared for.
Whether you’re navigating breakouts, texture concerns, signs of aging, or just craving a deeply relaxing experience, our licensed estheticians meet you where you are — with skill, warmth, and intention.
What Makes Our Esthetician Services Different
We don’t do cookie-cutter facials. We offer holistic, results-driven skin care that honors your body, your preferences, and your comfort:
Massage-based facials that calm, sculpt, and support lymphatic flow
Thoughtful, ingredient-conscious products with real results
Treatments tailored to your skin’s needs — not a checklist
Energy-aware touch and intuitive care that supports regulation
LGBTQIA+ affirming and inclusive of all ages, skin tones, and skin stories
Facial + Skincare Services
Here’s what we offer — all delivered with intention and a holistic lens:
Holistic Facial Rituals: Intuitive and sculpting facials combining lymphatic drainage, massage, and supportive ingredients for glowing skin and a calm nervous system.
Dermaplaning: Gentle exfoliation that removes dead skin and “peach fuzz,” smooths texture, and enhances product absorption and radiance.
Chemical Peels: Customized peels to address texture, pigmentation, acne, and signs of aging — always paired with soothing post-care to protect your skin’s barrier.
Gua Sha & Facial Cupping: Facial massage techniques that lift, de-puff, enhance circulation, and support energy flow for a refreshed, vibrant appearance.
Acne Support Treatments: Targeted care for inflamed, congested, or sensitive skin — including extractions, calming masks, and home-care guidance.
Pro-Aging Support: Facials designed to support firmness, hydration, and vitality using techniques like reflexology, microcurrent, and massage.
Makeup Application: Personalized makeup artistry — from soft, natural looks to bold, editorial styles — for special occasions or everyday confidence.
Lash Lift & Tint: Lift and darken your natural lashes for an effortless, wide-eyed look.
Brow Shaping: Custom shaping that honors your face’s structure — using wax, thread, or precise tweezing per your preference.
Brow Lamination + Tint: Smooth and shape unruly brows for a fuller, more defined look, with tinting for extra pop.

Holistic Esthetician
I’m a licensed esthetician focusing on my passion for skincare after years in the corporate world. During my time living on the West Coast, I was inspired by the natural beauty, wellness-focused lifestyle, and natural approach to self-care. With a deep-rooted interest in skin health and a results-driven mindset, I made the leap into esthetics to help others feel confident and empowered in their skin. My approach blends the professionalism and attention to detail with a genuine commitment to personalized skincare solutions. Whether you're looking to correct concerns or maintain a radiant glow, my goal is to deliver visible results through tailored treatments, education, and care. I believe in not just treating the skin, but transforming how you feel in it.

Before becoming an NP, I spent 9 years as a nurse—ICU, recovery, the floors, case management… you name it, I did it! But my own health struggles led me down a path of functional medicine, hormone health, and natural healing. Now, I help both men & women feel and look their best—from balancing hormones & gut health to natural aesthetic treatments that enhance confidence.
I don’t believe in quick fixes or trendy gimmicks—just real solutions that actually work. If you’re ready to invest in your health & confidence, I’d love to help!
