Our founder's skincare journey is rooted in a genuine passion for aesthetics and sharing her knowledge with her clients. Holly was inspired by her early experiences in beauty, as a Beauty Advisor for Estee Lauder, Makeup Artist, and Owner/Operator of two salons in Pennsylvania as well as her new venture: HR Aesthetics at Creekside Salon and Spa in Murrells Inlet, SC. She transitioned from Cosmetology to Nursing. Holly eventually left bedside nursing to pursue a career in medical aesthetics and went on to become the Clinical Nurse Manager of Skincare for prominent Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Ernest Normington, MD at Lewisburg Plastic Surgery and Dermatology in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, for nearly 15 years. She also worked with Dr. Alexander Moya MD, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Lewisburg, Pa. who is known for his advanced techniques in body contouring surgery after weight loss. He is also the creator of the Corset Body Lift. In addition, Holly was previously the Aesthetic Nurse for Dermatologist, Dr. Vienna Gibson, D.O., of the award winning (The Best of the Beach) Seaside Dermatology in Murrells Inlet, SC., one of the few practices offering the MOHS procedure in our area for skin cancer patients. Holly gained invaluable insights throughout her career. Our Founder has been trained by some of the best in the aesthetic industry, including Dr. Patrick Bitter Jr., MD, a board-certified dermatologist and pioneer in pulsed light therapy. Dr. Bitter was named Male Dermatologist of the year at the MyFaceMyBody Awards USA 2018 and has been featured as a celebrity dermatologist on ABC's Extreme Makeover. Dr. Stephen Mulholland, MD., is a cosmetic plastic surgeon and entrepreneur known for pioneering non-invasive aesthetic laser and skincare combinations and therapies. He holds several patents in aesthetic medicine. It was Holly's personal loss of her younger brother to metastatic melanoma, (the most invasive skin cancer with the highest risk of death) that further fueled her commitment to skincare education and preventative care. This dedication to enhancing skin health is deeply woven into our ethos, ensuring clients receive not just treatments, but lifelong skincare guidance. At HR Aesthetics, expertise and empathy cultivate a path to healthier, empowered skin.
