FNP-BC is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner. A master's-level clinician who assesses, diagnoses and treats independently. APNP is the Wisconsin designation for an Advanced Practice Nurse Prescriber, which is the authority to prescribe. Together they mean the person injecting you is a licensed medical provider, not an aesthetician who took a weekend course.

She founded Illumatox in 2022 and works full time in aesthetic medicine now, with fifteen years of healthcare behind that: ten as a pediatric registered nurse and five as a nurse practitioner in primary and urgent care. The clinical background matters more than it sounds: recognising when something is not a cosmetic problem is a skill you learn in urgent care, not in an injectables course.

Yes: request her when you book. She is the named provider on most pages of this site, and she is the busiest of the three, so her diary fills further ahead than the others. If the timing matters more than the person, Kayla is also a board-certified nurse practitioner.

Lip filler, wrinkle relaxers and Aerolase are the three she does most and enjoys most. She is also the person to see for a correction (a result from elsewhere that needs assessing or dissolving) which is a slower, more diagnostic appointment than a routine treatment.

Regularly, and it is the thing she is most consistent about. The house position is that a result you are unhappy with costs more than a booking we turned down, and every clinical page here says where the treatment stops working. Expect to be talked out of at least one thing you arrived asking for.

Yes, and booking the wrong one is the usual scheduling mistake. A consultation is an assessment with time to plan and, for skin, an Alma IQ scan. A treatment appointment assumes the decision is made. If you are not sure what you want yet, book the consultation. It is credited back against whatever you go on to have.
