“I saw Kristina for masseter Botox and lip filler. She was training with NP Stephanie (who was also wonderful). Kristina did absolutely amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and the results are amazing. She talked me through the entire procedure and continued to check if I was comfortable. I couldn’t be happier. I couldn’t recommend more.”
