RN
Kristina Simanis, RN, is an aesthetic nurse injector at Express Med Spa in Shorewood. She began clinical practice in 2020, lists women’s health as her clinical specialty, and has practiced aesthetics and injectables since 2024.
Kristina knew Express Med Spa as a patient first. She came to the clinic for filler long before she worked here, and when an externship opportunity opened, her passion for women’s health and for all things beauty made it an easy leap. After months of training with Stefanie Drozd, MSN-APRN, the founder and lead nurse practitioner, she joined the Express Med Spa team and has been happily working here since.
Microneedling and facials are her favorite treatments, because she sees skincare as the foundation for great results. She also loves facial balancing, which she describes as an art, and the best part for her is seeing a patient’s happy reaction afterward.
Her approach starts from a simple belief: aging is not a disease. Kristina cares for the whole person: mind, body and soul. She supports and uplifts her patients and sets real, honest expectations, even when the honest answer is no. Patient safety is her number one priority, along with making sure every patient feels comfortable, cared for and welcomed just as they are, with no judgment.
At the Shorewood clinic her work centers on neurotoxin and dermal filler injections, microneedling, facials, medical weight loss, and skincare counseling. Injectable treatments at Express Med Spa are performed under the medical supervision of founder and lead nurse practitioner Stefanie Drozd, MSN-APRN.

Specialties
Treatments Performed by Kristina
Aqua Facial
A medical-grade resurfacing treatment that combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and hydration in a single 45–60 minute session. No downtime. Visible results the same day.
Lip Flip
A small neurotoxin treatment that gently rolls your upper lip outward, creating a fuller-looking pout without adding any filler. It takes about 10–15 minutes, there's no downtime, and the results are natural - not overdone. If you've ever wanted a little more lip without going the filler route, this may be exactly what you're looking for.
Microneedling Face
Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments we offer for improving skin texture, reducing acne scars, and rebuilding collagen in the face. Using a medical-grade device, our nurse practitioners create controlled micro-channels in the skin that trigger your body's natural healing response. The result over time is smoother, firmer, more even-toned skin. No lasers. No chemicals. Just your own skin doing what it does best, with a little encouragement.Nasolabial Fold Filler
Those lines that run from the sides of your nose down to the corners of your mouth are called nasolabial folds, or smile lines. They deepen over time as the face loses volume and the skin loses collagen. If yours are making you look more tired or older than you feel, a hyaluronic acid filler can soften them noticeably in a single visit. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners use a precision-placed filler to restore volume where it has been lost, leaving you with a smoother, more rested result that still looks and moves like you.Marionette Line Filler
Marionette lines are the creases that form at the corners of the mouth and run downward toward the chin. They tend to make the face look sad or stern even when you are relaxed, which is one of the more frustrating things about them. Volume loss in the lower face deepens these lines over time, and no amount of skincare will fill them back in. A well-placed hyaluronic acid filler can soften the shadow they create and lift the corners of the mouth for a more rested, neutral expression. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners use Revanesse Versa+ to treat this area with precision, keeping your results natural and proportional to the rest of your face.Cheek Filler and Midface Volumizing
The cheeks and midface are the structural center of the face. When volume in this area decreases with age, the effects show up everywhere: flatter cheeks, deeper nasolabial folds, a heavier appearance along the jawline, and a face that looks more drawn and tired than it once did. Restoring that volume with a precisely placed hyaluronic acid filler can lift and re-balance the face in a way that looks completely natural. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners approach cheek and midface filler with an emphasis on proportion and subtlety. The goal is not to change your face but to give it back the structure it has gradually lost.
GLP-1 Medical Weight Loss Program
Losing weight is not just about willpower. Hormonal changes, metabolism shifts, and years of dieting can make traditional methods feel impossible. Our GLP-1 Medical Weight Loss Program is a nurse practitioner-led, medically supervised program that works with your body's own hunger and satiety signals to help you lose weight in a way that is safe, structured, and sustainable. Every patient starts with a health assessment and lab work, and you will have ongoing clinical support throughout your journey.Perioral Line Filler
Perioral lines are the small vertical lines that form above and below the lips, and the creases that develop at the corners of the mouth. They are sometimes called smoker's lines or lipstick lines, though you do not have to smoke to develop them. They form as the skin around the mouth loses collagen and the underlying support structure thins with age, and they tend to make lipstick feather and the mouth area look older than the rest of the face. A small amount of precisely placed hyaluronic acid filler can smooth these lines and restore definition to the lip border without overfilling or distorting the natural shape of the mouth. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners treat this area with a conservative, detail-oriented approach because the zone around the lips has very little margin for error and a lot of impact on the overall result.
Pre-Jowl and Chin Filler
The lower face and jawline are often where aging becomes most visible and least expected. The pre-jowl sulcus is the hollow that forms just in front of the jowl area, creating a notch along the jawline that interrupts what used to be a smooth, continuous line from chin to ear. The mental crease is the horizontal line or dimpling that forms between the lower lip and the chin as the chin loses volume and the overlying muscle becomes more prominent. Both concerns develop gradually, and both can be meaningfully improved with a small amount of precisely placed hyaluronic acid filler. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners treat the lower face as a connected zone, assessing the pre-jowl area, the chin, and the jawline together to achieve a result that looks balanced and natural from every angle.Mini Lip Filler
Not everyone wants a dramatic change. Some patients want their lips to look a little fuller, a little more defined, or simply more like they used to before volume quietly faded with age. A mini lip filler appointment uses half a syringe of hyaluronic acid lip filler to add soft, natural-looking volume without the more noticeable result a full syringe can produce. It is the right starting point for first-time patients who want to try lip filler without committing to a bigger change, for patients who have naturally fuller lips and want only the subtlest refinement, and for maintenance patients who are topping up between full syringe appointments. At Express Med Spa, every lip filler appointment, mini or full, is performed by a licensed nurse practitioner or registered nurse injector and tailored to your specific lip shape and goals.Lip Filler Augmentation
Fuller, more defined lips are one of the most requested treatments we do, and for good reason. A well-placed lip filler can add volume, restore the definition that fades with age, improve symmetry, and give the lips a shape that photographs naturally and looks proportional to your face. At Express Med Spa, we use Revanesse Lips+, a hyaluronic acid filler specifically designed for lip augmentation. Every appointment is performed by a licensed nurse practitioner or registered nurse injector, and every result is planned around your specific lip anatomy and what you actually want, not a generic look. Whether you are completely new to lip filler or you have had it before and want a provider who takes it seriously, we want your result to look like a better version of your lips, not someone else's.Revanesse Dermal Filler
Revanesse is the hyaluronic acid filler line used across all four Express Med Spa locations for facial volume restoration, wrinkle correction, and lip augmentation. It is one of the fastest-growing dermal filler brands in the United States, with over 8.2 million syringes used in more than 80 countries worldwide. The line includes two products: Revanesse Versa+, used for facial lines, folds, and volume, and Revanesse Lips+, used specifically for lip augmentation. Both are hyaluronic acid injectables, both contain a built-in anesthetic for patient comfort, and both are reversible. At Express Med Spa, all Revanesse treatments are administered by licensed nurse practitioners and registered nurse injectors under the medical supervision of our founder, Stefanie Drozd, MSN-APRN. If you are trying to understand which Revanesse treatment is right for you, this page is the place to start.
Microneedling
Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, prompting your body to rebuild collagen and elastin. It is one of the most versatile ways to soften acne scars, smooth uneven texture, refine enlarged pores, and ease fine lines and wrinkles for natural-looking skin rejuvenation. At Express Med Spa, microneedling is performed by licensed medical providers across our Chicagoland locations using the professional CytoPen® device, with options to match your goals: standard microneedling for the face, neck, and body, Sublative radiofrequency microneedling for deeper remodeling and skin tightening, and enhancement add-ons like PRP and stem cell growth factor. Below you will find how each option works, what it treats, what it costs, and where to book microneedling near you.NAD+ Injections
NAD+ injections replenish cellular energy. Each shot delivers nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) directly into the body to support mental clarity, metabolism, and healthy aging at the cellular level. At Express Med Spa, NAD+ injections are administered by licensed nurse practitioners across our Chicagoland locations as a quick, in-office alternative to a longer NAD+ IV drip. Here you will find how NAD+ injections work, what they cost, and where to book near you.B12 Injections
B12 injections boost energy and metabolism. Each B12 shot delivers a concentrated dose of vitamin B12 to help your body convert food into energy, support red blood cell production, and ease fatigue. At Express Med Spa, B12 injections are administered by licensed nurse practitioners across our Chicagoland locations in a quick, in-office visit. Here you will find how B12 shots work, what they cost, and where to book near you.
Lipotropic Injections
Lipotropic injections accelerate fat metabolism. Each skinny shot combines fat-metabolizing amino acids, methionine, inositol, and choline, with B vitamins to help your body break down fat, support liver function, and sustain energy during weight loss. At Express Med Spa, lipotropic injections are administered by licensed nurse practitioners across our Chicagoland locations, often alongside a medical weight-loss plan. Here you will find how the skinny shot works, what it costs, and where to book near you.
PRP Hair Restoration
If your hair is thinning and over-the-counter products are not helping, PRP may be worth a closer look. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners offer PRP and PRF hair restoration - in-office injections that use your own blood platelets to stimulate thinning hair - for both men and women. PRP works best for early-to-moderate pattern hair loss while the follicles are still active, and we will be honest with you: it is not a hair transplant, it is not a permanent cure, and results build gradually over a series of sessions. Every plan starts with a free consultation, led by Stefanie Drozd, MSN, APRN.
Face Laser Hair Removal
If you are tired of waxing, threading, or tweezing unwanted hair on your upper lip, chin, or cheeks, laser hair removal on the face offers a longer lasting option. At Express Med Spa, facial laser hair removal is performed by our nurse practitioners using medical-grade laser technology to gently reduce unwanted facial hair over a series of sessions. It is a safe, effective choice for many skin tones, and every plan begins with a consultation so we can match the treatment to your skin and hair.Acne Scar Treatment
If past breakouts have left scars, professional treatment can make a real, lasting difference in how your skin looks and feels. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners treat acne scars with microneedling, sublative radiofrequency microneedling, and chemical peels, matched to your scar type. We will be honest with you about results: the right plan can significantly improve acne scars over a series of treatments, but no treatment erases them completely, and some deep scars are better served by a dermatologist. Every plan begins with a free consultation with Stefanie Drozd, MSN, APRN.
Acne Treatment
If acne is not responding to drugstore products, professional in-office treatment can help. At Express Med Spa, our nurse practitioners treat acne with a combination of medical-grade chemical peels, professional extractions, cortisone injections for painful cysts, and customized acne facials, matched to your skin and the type of acne you have. Every plan starts with a free consultation, and for moderate, severe, or cystic acne we will be honest with you about when a dermatologist should be part of your care. Treatment is led by Stefanie Drozd, MSN, APRN.Masseter Botox
Masseter Botox is one treatment with two very different payoffs. By relaxing the masseter, the large muscle at the angle of your jaw, a few precise injections can soften a wide, square jawline into a smoother contour, and they can ease the tension, soreness, and teeth grinding that come with an overworked jaw. At Express Med Spa we treat the masseter with Botox or Xeomin, matched to your goals, and we will be honest about what to expect: results are temporary, the slimming effect builds over a few weeks, and dosing is individualized. Every plan starts with a free consultation with Stefanie Drozd, MSN, APRN.
Chemical Peel
A chemical peel is a medical-grade resurfacing treatment that lifts away dull, damaged surface skin to reveal a brighter, smoother, more even complexion underneath. At Express Med Spa, our nurse-administered VI Peel and Glow Peel treatments are tailored to your skin and your goals, whether that is fading sun and age spots, calming acne, softening fine lines, or simply restoring a healthy glow. Care is available at all four of our Chicagoland locations: La Grange, Frankfort, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood.Botox Injections
Botox Cosmetic is the most requested injectable service at Express Med Spa. Our licensed nurse practitioners smooth forehead lines, crow's feet, and glabellar creases with a 15-minute appointment and no required downtime.
Xeomin Injections in Chicagoland
Xeomin is a purified botulinum toxin type A - the same wrinkle-relaxing family as Botox, with the accessory proteins removed. Our licensed nurse practitioners smooth frown lines, forehead creases, and crow's feet in a 15-minute appointment with no required downtime.
Underarm Botox for Excessive Sweating (Axillary Hyperhidrosis)
Excessive underarm sweating, known medically as axillary hyperhidrosis, can soak through shirts no matter how much antiperspirant you use. At Express Med Spa, our licensed nurse practitioners treat it with Botox, the neurotoxin FDA-approved to calm overactive underarm sweat glands, in a quick in-office visit with no required downtime. Most patients enjoy dramatically drier underarms for four to six months per treatment.Filler Dissolving in Chicagoland
Not happy with your filler? Our licensed nurse injectors use hyaluronidase to safely dissolve overfilled, lumpy, or migrated hyaluronic acid filler and reset your look. Whether you want to soften one area or start over completely, filler dissolving is a quick in-office visit, starting at $299.IPL Photofacial
IPL photofacial is one of the most requested skin rejuvenation treatments at Express Med Spa. Our nurse practitioner-led team uses the FDA-cleared Candela elos system to fade sun spots, calm redness, and even out skin tone, with little to no downtime.
Radiesse Filler
Radiesse is the collagen stimulating dermal filler our nurse practitioner led team uses to restore facial volume, smooth deep folds, and support the jowl and jawline. Facial treatments are $699 per syringe, with a $379 Mini Radiesse half syringe option, at all four Chicagoland locations.
Neck and Decollete Rejuvenation
Crepey skin, horizontal neck lines, and chest wrinkles are a collagen problem, not a volume problem. Our nurse practitioner led injectors use hyperdilute Radiesse to stimulate collagen across the neck and decollete, starting from $699, at all four Chicagoland locations.Dermaplaning Facial in Chicagoland
A dermaplaning facial at Express Med Spa uses a sterile surgical blade to lift away dead surface skin and peach fuzz in a single visit, leaving skin instantly smoother and makeup sitting flatter. Our licensed esthetician performs every treatment at all four Chicagoland locations, with no required downtime.Hand Rejuvenation
Hands give away age faster than the face because the soft tissue cushion between the skin and the tendons thins over the years. Our nurse practitioner led injectors use Radiesse to restore that volume on the backs of the hands and to stimulate your own collagen, at all four Chicagoland locations.Non-Surgical Butt Lift and Cellulite Treatment
Cellulite dimpling and a flatter buttock curve are largely a collagen and skin quality question, not only a volume one. Our nurse practitioner led injectors use Radiesse to stimulate collagen and support contour across the buttocks, hips, and thighs at all four Chicagoland locations, with pricing set at your consultation.VI Peel in Chicagoland
The VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that resurfaces the top layers of skin to improve the appearance of sun and age spots, uneven tone, acne-prone skin, and early fine lines. It is formulated to work comfortably across a wide range of skin tones, with a predictable peeling cycle that runs about a week. Our nurse-practitioner-led team offers the VI Peel at all four Chicagoland locations: La Grange, Frankfort, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood.IV Therapy in Chicagoland
IV therapy delivers balanced fluids with vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into a vein, so they reach your circulation without passing through the digestive tract. We offer re-hydration drips in two sizes, four blended drips, a Myers' Cocktail add-on, and individual boosts. Every IV begins with an on-site health assessment by our nurse practitioner led team, at all four Chicagoland locations: La Grange, Frankfort, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood.RF Skin Tightening in Chicagoland
RF skin tightening heats the deeper layer of the skin to contract existing collagen and prompt your body to build more, firming the jawline, neck, and body without surgery. Our nurse-practitioner-led team performs it with the Sublime applicator on the Candela elos Plus at all four Chicagoland locations.Skin Tag and Mole Removal in Chicagoland
Skin tags, raised cosmetic moles, and milia removed with the Dion plasma pen, with no scalpel and no stitches. Treatment starts at $95, and pricing is banded by how many spots are treated in one visit. Available at all four Express Med Spa locations across Chicagoland.Stem Cell Facial (STEMfacial)
The Stem Cell Facial pairs CytoPen microneedling with a proprietary STEMfacial growth factor matrix, offered at all four nurse-practitioner-led Express Med Spa clinics across Chicagoland.
Microdermabrasion Facial (Nano Tip)
A microdermabrasion facial polishes away the dull, dead cell layer sitting on the surface of your skin, so what shows through is smoother, brighter, and readier for your skincare. Express Med Spa performs it with a needle-free, crystal-free Nano Tip cartridge on the CytoPen S2, at all four Chicagoland clinics.Under Eye Filler (Tear Trough) in Chicagoland
Under eye filler replaces the volume that has been lost at the lid to cheek junction, so the hollow fills in and the shadow it casts lifts. It is a 30 minute appointment, $599 per syringe, performed by licensed nurse injectors at all four Express Med Spa clinics.
Microneedling with PRP in Chicagoland
Microneedling with PRP pairs collagen induction therapy with platelet-rich plasma drawn from your own blood. A small sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, and that plasma is then used as the glide on your skin while the CytoPen creates thousands of controlled micro-channels. Because the channels are open as the plasma passes over them, your own platelet growth factors reach the layer of skin where collagen is rebuilt instead of sitting on the surface. It is the enhancement most often chosen for atrophic acne scars, uneven texture and early crepiness, and it is the treatment most people mean when they search for a vampire facial. At Express Med Spa it is a $195 add-on to any microneedling service, performed by licensed medical providers at all four Chicagoland clinics.Sublative RF Microneedling in Chicagoland
Sublative RF microneedling resurfaces skin with fractional radiofrequency energy. The Sublative applicator on our Candela elos Plus platform presses a grid of tiny electrode points against the skin and fires bipolar RF energy between them, creating controlled micro-injuries that reach the upper dermis while leaving most of the surface intact to speed healing. Because radiofrequency does not target pigment, it can be used across a wide range of skin tones. It is the resurfacing option our nurse-practitioner-led team most often recommends for acne scarring, rough or uneven texture, enlarged-looking pores and fine lines. Sessions are $495 for the face or one body area, performed by licensed medical providers at all four Chicagoland clinics.
Preventative Botox (Baby Botox) in Chicagoland
Preventative Botox, often called baby Botox, uses a lighter dose of neurotoxin to soften expression lines while they are still faint. Our nurse practitioner led team maps your forehead, frown lines, and crow's feet, then places a set 30 unit session for $329 in a quick 15 to 30 minute visit with minimal downtime. Results vary from person to person.
Laser Tattoo Removal
Fade or remove unwanted ink with FDA-cleared Q-switched Nd:YAG laser tattoo removal at Express Med Spa in Frankfort, IL, with pricing that starts from $75 per session based on your tattoo's size.
Letybo Injections in Chicagoland
Letybo is an FDA approved botulinum toxin type A injection for the frown lines between the brows. Our nurse-practitioner-led team offers Letybo alongside Botox Cosmetic and Xeomin at all four Chicagoland locations, so your injector can match the product to how your muscles actually move. Treatment takes about 15 minutes with minimal downtime.PRP Injections
PRP injections use platelet-rich plasma concentrated from your own blood to support tissue repair where it is placed. Express Med Spa offers injected PRP for full-face rejuvenation, as an alternative to hyaluronic acid filler, and for the lashes, body and joints, from $395* to $975* depending on the area. Every draw, spin and injection is performed by a licensed medical provider at our four Chicagoland clinics. Injected PRP is a separate service from the topical PRP added to microneedling, with its own consent, pricing and appointment length.Belotero Dermal Filler
Belotero is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler built to sit smoothly in thin, mobile skin, which makes it the product our injectors reach for on fine lines and delicate areas rather than on heavy structural volume. Express Med Spa carries it at all four Chicagoland clinics at $599 per syringe, or $349 for a half syringe. Every injection is placed by a licensed medical provider.Laser Hair Removal in Chicagoland
Shaving every other day, rebooking a wax every few weeks, and fighting ingrown hairs adds up over a year. At Express Med Spa, our nurse-practitioner-led team treats the face and body on a medical-grade Candela elos Plus laser, delivering permanent hair reduction over a short series of sessions at four Chicagoland clinics.Menopause and Perimenopause Hormone Therapy in Chicagoland
Menopause and perimenopause hormone therapy at Express Med Spa is nurse-practitioner-led. Your first visit is a consultation with a physical exam and a hormone panel, and your prescription recommendations follow once results are back, with in-office estradiol injections available to established patients at all four Chicagoland clinics.Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) in Chicagoland
Lab-guided testosterone replacement therapy from the nurse-practitioner-led team at Express Med Spa, available as weekly injections or as pellets placed every 4 to 6 months. Treatment begins only after bloodwork confirms a testosterone deficiency, and your dose is adjusted from follow-up labs rather than from how you feel alone.DaVinci Teeth Whitening in Chicagoland
A cosmetic whitening session built around the DaVinci system, a mineral based whitening gel and blue light equipment that the manufacturer markets as bleach free. About 60 minutes, $175, at all four Express Med Spa clinics. Most clients lighten three to five shades, though individual results vary.Glutathione Injections in Chicagoland
Glutathione is an antioxidant compound your body already makes and uses inside nearly every cell. An intramuscular glutathione injection delivers a measured dose in a short in-office visit, with no IV line and without relying on digestive absorption. Our nurse practitioners review your health history and your goals first. Glutathione injections start at $55 at all four Chicagoland clinics.Hormone Replacement Therapy in Chicagoland
Lab guided hormone replacement therapy for women and men, prescribed and monitored by our nurse practitioners at all four Express Med Spa clinics. Every plan starts with an office visit, a physical exam and a full hormone panel, so your dose is set by your own numbers rather than by a questionnaire.
