About Us: How We Ensure Quality and Safety
Wendy’s medical background, personal work ethic, and genuine concern for her patients form the basis for her absolute commitment to high standards for quality and safety. All procedures are performed in a fully equipped medical office, with the advantage of physician oversight and backup. Wendy — who spent years working as a nurse specialist in operating and emergency rooms — and other trained health-care specialists are always available.
Wendy has been one of the first people to undertake thorough training and to begin practice in nearly all of the services that she offers. That is an impressive record. She has treated thousands of patients whose cosmetic concerns and health conditions have been widely varied. She also is highly attuned to the medical issues that can arise in conjunction with any procedure carried out on the body. Clinical knowledge cannot be gathered from books or courses. It comes only from years of hands-on work with — and responsibility for — live patients. To put it simply, Wendy knows what she’s doing. That is why women return to her year after year: They trust her to take good care of them; to give them honest, thoughtful advice; to protect them from false claims and quackery; and to ensure their comfort and safety.
A portion of the procedures that Wendy performs can be legally undertaken by anyone, regardless of background, experience, or training. In such cases, no license or certification is required. Nonetheless, the techniques are powerful and, in novice hands, can be risky. Many involving breaking the skin, which immediately opens a potential channel for bacterial or viral infection. Some can cause scarring or other permanent disfigurement. Knowledge of sterile technique, infection control, and general human physiology is critical for patient safety.
Some of the treatments that Wendy performs would be uncomfortable or downright painful without sufficient anesthesia. Nonetheless, only a trained and licensed health-care professional can use powerful anesthetics, so some practitioners perform these procedures without numbing their patients. In addition to being a registered nurse, Wendy has received specialized training and certification so that she can ensure the complete comfort of her patients. You will be grateful for Wendy’s gentle touch!
No amount of knowledge, training, and experience is sufficient to guarantee that a practitioner will bestow consistently good results in aesthetic transformation. Unlike those associated with most medical procedures, these results are not measured in terms of freedom from disease or disability; instead, they are measured by the satisfaction and happiness of the patient. Good results require artistry. It is not enough to know how to operate a micropigmentation device; you must also know what degree of eyebrow arch will be most flattering for, say, a round, heavy-featured face, and you must know what pattern and color of pigment application will have the visual effect of creating such an arch. You must have a keen sense of color and style. You must know how to elicit and listen to your patients’ desires, values, and goals, and must know which treatments will maximize fulfillment. You must be prepared and competent to offer advice, but also flexible in adopting your patients’ aesthetic preferences. Few people can offer this combination of technical skill and artistic eye. Throughout her life, Wendy has demonstrated that she has both qualities in abundance.
Wendy is best known for providing soft, natural-looking aesthetic transformation with a gentle, professional touch. Surgeons, physicians, and cosmetologists all refer patients to her without hesitation. She is sought out by women who want to look great without looking like they “have had work done.” When you are considering engaging someone to alter your appearance, you should place huge value on proven competence and sensitivity. Don’t trust your face to anyone who has not demonstrated these qualities. As Wendy knows, your face — and you — deserve the best.
