Brooke Blanchard, RN, BSN

Injection Specialist 

Location: Petoskey Being an Injection Specialist combines my love of science and art while fueling a passion to empower others to find their inner confidence. There is nothing better than to see patients experience a “glow up” where they just radiate from within! "I believe that your vibe attracts your tribe, and I feel so grateful to work with such a wonderful professional team that also prioritizes natural-looking results and encourages self-love. The energy here just feels good from the moment you walk through our door. Aesthetics can be overwhelming especially if you are a new patient and do not know where to start. As your guide to Aesthetics, you can count on me for transparency, thorough education, and safe aesthetic practices as well as warmth, enthusiasm, and a personally tailored treatment plan every time."
