Alyssa serves as a very dynamic member of our team- practicing as a Licensed Esthetician while serving a Cosmetic Tattoo Artist- doing both lip blushing and microblading treatments.

Alyssa keeps her skin bright by using Skinmedica® Lumivive System and Instant Bright. Monthly, she has a Dermaplane along with a Hydrafacial treatment. This keeps her skin exfoliated, glowing, and hydrated at all times.
