Dawn Hanson, RN, BSN

CEO, Manager, Aesthetic Nurse
With over two decades of experience in the nursing field, Dawn has always been drawn towards the aesthetic aspect of healthcare. She appreciates the unique blend of art, science, and precision that aesthetic medicine demands. Her journey in aesthetics began a few years ago at a renowned plastic surgery center in Austin, Texas.

Her foundational training in dermal fillers and neurotoxin started with the esteemed Injection U and Skin by Lovely in Portland, OR.
Dawn’s approach to aesthetics is deeply rooted in her belief in enhancing natural beauty. She excels in creating personalized treatment plans for her patients, understanding that each individual’s aesthetic journey is unique and evolves over time. Dawn’s dedication to her patients extends beyond treatments; she invests time in building genuine, trusting relationships, ensuring that each person feels valued and understood under her care.
