Amanda Luna , RN
Aesthetic Injector
Amanda Luna is a Registered Nurse and aesthetic injector with a background in healthcare dating back to 2019. After discovering her passion for aesthetics, she transitioned into medical aesthetics in 2021, where she found the perfect balance between clinical knowledge, artistry, and helping patients feel confident in their own skin.
​
Amanda’s approach is rooted in natural-looking, balanced results. She believes aesthetic treatments should enhance your features and not change who you are. With a thoughtful eye, a gentle presence, and a strong understanding of facial harmony, Amanda takes the time to truly listen to each patient’s goals and create treatment plans that feel personalized, intentional, and never overdone.

Her goal is for every patient to leave feeling refreshed, confident, and still completely like themselves—just a little more elevated.
