Courtney DeKlotz, NP

Injection Specialist

Ask Courtney about her work and she’ll tell you, “I love everything about this field: the science, the anatomy, and making people feel good about themselves!” Courtney started as a client at Georgous Aesthetic Bar. She recognized how different it was from other med spas or clinics. The expert team took extra time during a thorough consultation to learn more about her. Courtney was fascinated to discover the science behind the treatments recommended to her and had never experienced such an in-depth look at skincare.

As Courtney continued to ask questions, Georgia took the opportunity to mentor and teach. Courtney became Georgous Aesthetic Bar’s first intern, working under Georgia to learn procedures, products, and most importantly, anatomy and skill.
