  • Founder/Nurse Practitioner

    Sara is a multi-state, dual-board certified nurse practitioner with formal, hands-on training in basic and advanced toxin and dermal filler procedures, skin care and laser therapy. She received a bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Southern Miss, Bachelor’s in Nursing from Mississippi University for Women, and her doctorate in nursing practice (DNP) from Samford University in Birmingham, AL. Her medical background is diverse, including plastic surgery, emergency medicine, critical care and urgent care. Sara serves in the Air National Guard as a flight nurse, enhancing her assessment skills and problem-solving in difficult situations. In her spare time, she enjoys traveling and spending time with her family.

  • Sara’s personal favorites are Botox and Morpheus8, and here's why:

    Botox is a game-changer for smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines, providing a refreshed and youthful look that our clients absolutely love.

    Morpheus8, on the other hand, is remarkable for its skin rejuvenation capabilities, combining microneedling with radiofrequency to tighten and revitalize the skin.

    These treatments are at the heart of what we do because they deliver fantastic results and boost our clients' confidence immensely.

  • Esthetician

    Emilia Calderon is a MS state board certified aesthetician. She graduated from the Mississippi Institute of Aesthetics, Nails, and Cosmetology in 2019. Emilia specializes in a broad array of facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasions, waxing, and full body treatments. She has in-depth knowledge of various skin types and ethnicities. Emilia is fluent in Spanish. During her free time, she loves to spend time with her friends and family, especially with her baby boy.

  • Emilia is especially fond of the best dermaplane in Flowood and chemical peels.

    Dermaplaning is a gentle yet effective way to exfoliate the skin, removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz for an instantly smoother, brighter complexion. It's a client favorite for its immediate glow and the way it enhances the effectiveness of skincare products.

    Chemical peels, on the other hand, are amazing for their ability to deeply renew and rejuvenate the skin. They tackle a range of skin concerns, from fine lines to acne scars, revealing healthier, more youthful skin.

    Both of these treatments are beloved for their transformative results and are key to achieving that radiant, flawless look our clients adore.

  • Owner/Nurse Practitioner

    Itzel Barroso is a multi-state board-certified nurse practitioner. She is well trained in dermatology and skin care, as well as basic toxin and dermal filler procedures. She has many years of diverse nursing experience in emergency medicine, dermatology and aesthetics. Her in-depth knowledge of skin care makes her a valuable asset to Highland Medical Aesthetics. When Itzel isn’t in the clinic, she can be found trying new restaurants and traveling.

  • Itzel’s go-to procedures are laser hair removal and lip fillers.

    Laser hair removal is a fantastic solution for long-term hair reduction, offering our clients a convenient and effective way to achieve smooth, hair-free skin without the hassle of constant shaving or waxing.

    As for lip fillers, they're an absolute favorite because they provide instant, beautiful results in enhancing the natural shape and volume of the lips, giving our clients that perfect pout they desire.

    These treatments are staples at our clinic because they consistently deliver satisfaction and joy to our clients.
