The most rewarding part of my day is achieving my patients’ aesthetic care plan. When I meet and exceed each patient’s short- and long-term goals utilizing tailored treatments, we are both successful. I utilize a combination of treatment modalities to produce effective, natural facial rejuvenation with little or no downtime.

“ARIEL KIRK IS MAGIC”

“I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Delgado’s aesthetic nurse, Ariel Kirk. I had always preferred surgery over injectables, but I was impressed with the results. There are definitely advantages since there is minimal planning and down time and many of the injectables are lasting longer. I had filler placed in my cheeks, around my mouth and eyes. The results were fabulous. My cheeks were fuller, lifting the focus on my face with a more youthful appearance and reviving areas of lost fat. With addition of filler around my mouth, many wrinkles diminished or disappeared and added fullness to my aging face. The procedures are quick and done in an office appointment. There was minimal discomfort on injection—Ariel uses local and is gentle. I was excited having it done, and I’m euphoric with the results. Thank you, Ariel.”

“Ariel is awesome. I have been to a few providers for injections since moving from the East Coast, and I can honestly say I have found my new provider. She is a true artist!”

By Jamie Q.


“I went in for filler injections and was to see Ariel, the RN. Ariel explained everything, and being the Nervous Nellie that I am, she numbed me up and was very gentle. I am thrilled with the results and recommend this office.”

By Nancy B.


“Ariel did a beautiful job and even put some filler in the very thin areas of my lower eyelids. She suggested Botox for my crinkly bunny lines on the sides of my nose…I am thrilled with the new, smoother look. Thank you Ariel and to Dr. Delgado for creating such a great team!”

By Namaste S.


“This review is for Ariel, the amazing nurse who does cosmetic injections at this office. She is extremely meticulous, professional, kind, and has an artistic eye while she performs her injections. She truly listens to what you want and takes the time to be sure this is achieved.”

By Susan W.


“For my first time having fillers/Botox done, Ariel was so gentle and very informative and kept me at ease. She provided options and tools that I can use if needed to help stay calm prior to injectables. Highly recommend her!”

By Abigail Andrade


“I am beyond satisfied with all of my results! Having Botox for the first time, I was naturally a bit nervous. Ariel was amazing. She put my mind at ease, walked me through the whole thing, and gave me exactly what I was hoping for. I’ve had two facials with Ariel, and I can’t wait for my third! Thank you to Dr. Delgado and his staff for beautifying me!”

By Meriah Hernandez

“If you’re as finicky as I am about your face, trust me, you’ll want to see Ariel Kirk! I’m 38, and have always been bothered by a hollowness in my cheeks as well as asymmetry in my laugh lines. Ariel truly takes the time to consult with you and her placement of the product. FLAWLESS! She is an absolute PERFECTIONIST and loves what she does! This is what you want in someone who’s injecting product into your face! I had no bruising and minimal swelling. She’s given me a beautiful natural look and shaved a good 5-7 years off my age.”

By C.W.


“I was anxious before my first filler injection. My RN, Ariel Kirk, set me at ease by explaining exactly what to expect and anesthetized my face for a painless experience. She has the technique of an artist, a knowledge of how much filler to use and where to erase years while keeping a natural look. I will use her again and am confident in recommending her to others.”

By Debby K.


“Ariel is awesome! She always makes me feel comfortable during my appointments.”

By Kimberly Overstreet


“As so many others have raved, Ariel Kirk is magic. Her knowledge and attention to detail are unmatched. Over the past few months, I have gone to Ariel for her skin treatment (facial) and Botox. Her Botox skills are excellent and her facial is unlike any other. My pores have all but disappeared. Also, I have gone to multiple dermatologists trying get rid of persistent pimples. Every doctor told me it was not possible, but it was possible thanks to Ariel’s masterful skills. They are gone! My skin has NEVER looked better! Thank you, Ariel!”

By Sandy S.

“I see Ariel for Botox and Juvederm filler. She is an artist! Everything looks so natural. Her bedside manner is perfection, she truly takes her time, does not force anything on you, and her techniques are practically painless. She will answer any questions or apprehensions with patience, and you will be so happy with your results!”
