Meet The Team

Dana Nelson, RN

Aesthetic Nurse Injector

With more than 23 years of nursing experience, Dana Nelson, RN, brings a deep clinical foundation and a genuine love of caring for people to Graceful Medical Aesthetics. After years in high-acuity nursing and cosmetic surgery, she found her passion in aesthetic medicine—where science, artistry, and meaningful patient relationships come together.

Dana’s approach to aesthetics is personal, thoughtful, and intentionally conservative. She believes the best results don’t change the way you look—they simply help you feel refreshed, confident, and like the best version of yourself. She takes time to listen, educate, and create individualized treatment plans with safety and natural results always at the forefront.

Continued education is an important part of Dana’s practice, and she regularly pursues advanced training in facial anatomy, injectables, aesthetic techniques, and evidence-based care.

Graceful Medical Aesthetics was created from Dana’s desire to offer something more personal: a welcoming space where patients feel comfortable, cared for, and never pressured. Her hope is to build lasting relationships with her patients and help them age beautifully—with confidence, intention, and grace.

Treatments

Injectables

Neurotoxin

(Dysport and Daxxify):

Squinting, frowning, or raising your brows over the years can etch lines into your face that stick around even at rest — leaving you looking more tired, stressed, or serious than you actually feel. Wrinkle relaxers (also called neuromodulators) are non-surgical injectables that soften these expression lines, smoothing what's already there and helping prevent new lines from setting in, all while preserving natural movement and expression. While most people think of neuromodulators as an upper-face treatment, we have a special interest and advanced skill in full-face treatment — including lower-face and neck techniques like jaw slimming and the Nefertiti Lift — an often-overlooked area that can make a significant difference in overall facial balance and aging prevention. All of the neuromodulators we offer are FDA-approved for cosmetic use.

Commonly treated areas:

Forehead lines
Frown lines ("11s" between the brows)
Crow's feet
Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
Chin dimpling
Lip flip
Jaw slimming (masseter)
Neck bands and the Nefertiti Lift — for treating and preventing lower face and neck aging
Dermal Fillers
Volume loss, deepening folds, and hollowed features can leave you looking tired, older, or simply not like yourself — even when you feel like the same person inside. Dermal fillers, most often made with hyaluronic acid (a substance naturally found in the skin), restore that lost volume, soften static wrinkles, and refine facial contours with immediate, natural-looking results — helping you look as vibrant and rested as you feel. Unlike wrinkle relaxers, which work by softening muscle movement, fillers add structure and fullness, making them ideal for the lips, cheeks, temples, jawline, chin, and under-eyes. As with our approach to neuromodulators, we bring a full-face perspective to filler as well; many patients focus only on lips or cheeks without realizing that jawline, temple, and chin volume all play a role in graceful, balanced aging. Every treatment plan is customized to your unique anatomy and goals, with a conservative philosophy that keeps you looking like yourself — refreshed, not "done." All of the fillers we offer are FDA-approved for cosmetic use.
Bio-stimulators
One of the most frustrating parts of aging is noticing changes in your skin that skincare alone can’t seem to fix. As we age, our natural collagen production declines, contributing to thinner skin, decreased firmness, and an overall loss of youthful structure.
Sculptra is different from traditional filler. Rather than simply adding volume, it works with your body to stimulate new collagen production, gradually improving the skin’s firmness, quality, and support from within. Results appear subtly over time and can last for years—making Sculptra a beautiful option for patients who want to invest in how they age, not change how they look.

Microneedling

We proudly carry Colorescience, a clinically tested, physician-preferred skincare line known for its mineral-based sunscreens and skin-perfecting formulas. From daily SPF protection to correctors that target discoloration, redness, and post-treatment recovery, Colorescience products are formulated to support and extend the results of your in-office treatments.

Medical Grade Skincare

Microneedling uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering your body's natural collagen and elastin production. It's an effective treatment for improving skin texture, reducing the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and enlarged pores, and giving skin an overall more even, refreshed tone.

What to expect: Minimal downtime, typically 24-48 hours of redness similar to a mild sunburn. Most people see initial improvement within a week, with continued collagen-building benefits over the following 4-6 weeks. A series of 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.
