Description:

I am a board certified facial plastic surgeon with a passion for BEAUTY in all forms, inside & out. I love human faces & my dogs tail. I was born & raised in Mississippi, spent my entire childhood trying to get to New York or LA & most of my adult life wishing I was HOME. I have a passion for truth- beauty parlor- bathroom type truth. I think we are at our BEST inspiring and sharing with other women.I believe real beauty is being brave, bold & having the courage to follow your heart. I value honesty most of all & cherish the trust so many give to me. I see every detail on every face, the shadows & the light & this is my gift. I can operate, inject or laser to redirect shadows, remove extra skin, or smooth skin texture- but the real MAGIC is seeing the light of HAPPINESS shine from inside when someone looks like they did 5 or 10 years ago. This is the feeling I wake up FOR.

What to Look For in An Aesthetic Physician

10/15/2019
You have decided you want to do something about how you look- you look tired, sad - feel old... but who do you turn to & how do you decide who to see? The very last thing you want is a complication. When elective procedures aren't perfect- the remorse is real. The money spent often pales in comparison to the humiliation of an enlarged obvious version of something that you already found embarrassing. This podcast is a few things I would look for & why. Beauty is Art- and preserving &/or restoring it is my passion.

Connections Create CONFIDENCE.

10/2/2019
Beauty is creatively displayed in so many ways. The practice of Facial Plastic Surgery is an artistic form of self expression that makes me feel alive. When you LOVE what you do- you don't put it in a box. Separating "personal" from "business" is like going to a phone booth to make a call. It is over & I am glad it is. Show up & SAY who you are- what you believe in & where you find your greatest happiness. Connections only exist with honesty & openness.
