is Microneedling. Nurse Jen does an exceptional job treating my temperamental Asian skin. Microneedling with SkinPen® effectively treats scaring, skin tone, texture, hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles and decreases pore size in as little as 3 treatments. It creates thousands of microchannels that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process, while minimizing cellular damage. I add PRP (platelet rich plasma) to my microneedling treatments and I suggest every one do the same.
Jennifer Corona “Jen” has been an RN over 25 years. She went to nursing school in Illinois and started her career caring for patients in the hospital. After moving to Texas and working in the cardiac unit she met her soulmate who was also an RN. She has continued working as an RN over the years in the hospital, home health, or clinics. She has been an Army wife for the last 18 years and her spouse is an Anesthesia provider in the Army.
Jen has always been obsessed with everything SKIN/FACE! Just ask her 3 younger sisters! She started assisting and shadowing with medical aesthetics 5 years ago at a med spa in University Place, WA. She knew right away she had to get trained and certified to offer injectables. Jen is certified through NLI (Scottsdale, AZ) and has trained for advanced injectables under Sonya Elllis in Dallas, TX. As with any medical specialty, she is constantly studying and learning to ensure she offers the most natural and beneficial results to her clients.
Jen has always believed each client is unique and takes the WHOLE face into consideration with each appointment. She is very detail oriented and likes to understand what each client’s goal is, as well as give her professional opinion on what she thinks would be the best approach. She understands everyone has a budget and aims to suggest the best approach to obtaining the client’s desired results.
In her free time she loves to spend time with her dogs, 2 grown children and her husband, Will.

jaw filler and PCDC with Nurse Jen. I’m looking forward to trying these together because my main concern with my face is a double chin and a weak chin line. The PCDC will dissolve the fat under my chin and the jaw filler will give me more definition. I can’t wait!
