APRIL NELSON

RN | Registered nurse Injector

April began her healthcare career as a Certified Nursing Assistant before earning her Registered Nurse license. She has experience in assisted living, hospital care, outpatient clinics, case management, and private aesthetic practices, giving her a well-rounded foundation in patient care. Most recently, she served in a leadership role at a premier ENT, Allergy, and Aesthetic practice on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, where she helped grow the aesthetic division while overseeing the Allergy Department. Her diverse medical and aesthetic experience allows her to approach every patient with compassion, expertise, and a whole-person perspective.

April’s passion for aesthetic medicine stems from her lifelong appreciation for the intersection of artistry and science. With a background in beauty, skincare, and makeup artistry, she has always believed confidence begins with feeling comfortable in your own skin.

Today, she combines her artistic eye with evidence-based medicine to create natural, balanced, and personalized results. Committed to providing the highest level of care, April continually advances her education through private mentorships, one-on-one hands-on injection training, master classes, cadaver-based anatomy courses, and advanced programs with industry leaders including Allergan, Evolus, and Revance’s RHA Collection. She remains dedicated to bringing her patients the safest techniques, latest clinical research, and most innovative treatment options available.

Rather than treating a single concern, April focuses on comprehensive facial assessment, facial balancing, and optimizing skin health to achieve natural, refreshed results. She believes aesthetics extends beyond injections—it’s about prevention, wellness, education, and creating individualized treatment plans that align with each patient’s goals and lifestyle.

Outside of the office, April enjoys spending time with her husband, Benedetto, and their son, affectionately known as “The Benny’s.” Family is at the heart of everything she does and inspires the compassionate, personalized care she provides every patient.

Whether you’re new to aesthetic treatments or looking to refine your current regimen, April is committed to delivering honest guidance, exceptional care, and results that help you look and feel like the best version of yourself.
