Hello | Welcome
Hello everyone and welcome to Polished MedSpa and my first blog post! I am the founder and owner of Polished MedSpa located in the quaint town of Deep River, CT, neighboring Essex and Chester.
I am so excited to share with you in these blog posts... everything! And today it is with great anticipation and excitement that I get to discuss WHO I AM! I hope that my blog posts will be a great source of information and educational material that my followers can check regularly for news and reliable health tips.
I opened at 116 Main Street September 2018, and recently have been getting the MedSpa revamped- making some necessary changes to the space, the treatments, services, and products. All for YOU! It has been so much fun getting to know the local business in Deep River, Chester, Essex, Haddam this past year. It’s so amazing to be supported by a small business community. I love this community!
Who am I? What do I do? I am so glad you asked! I am an independant Nurse Practitioner and I also have my Doctorate Degree. What does that mean? In the state of Connecticut (after 3 years in practice), Nurse Practitioners can own and operate their own business and provide medical- grade treatments and services. I became interested in the aesthetics field when I was still a registered nurse, working in the intensive care unit. I have a long dermatology history with acne, psoriosis, and even alopecia. I have spent a lot of time in the dermatology office trying to improve my skin and with that love/hate relationship, I developed an interest in the field. My passion for the aesthetics world grew ten- fold after shadowing with an amazing plastic surgeon and nurse during graduate school. After gaining a few years of training and experience, I decided to take the leap and open my own practice, which has been so rewarding!
When I am not seeing clients and running the business (which is actually always- haha) I am spending time with my two small children and husband at our home in Higganum or on the shoreline in Branford. We enjoy spending time outside and traveling when our busy schedules allow it.
Thank you for stopping by! Stay tuned for more amazing services (and blog posts) to be offered by Polished in the upcoming weeks!
XO, Lauren
