Kerri Lorefice
Nurse Injector
RN
I grew up in Ontario and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Nursing in 2016. I viewed this time in my life as the perfect opportunity to fulfill a long-time dream of mine – to move to BC! This is where I began my nursing career and have since explored several areas of acute nursing. I always felt there was something more for me and decided to pursue another dream of mine, diving head first into the world of aesthetics. I have since obtained certifications in Basic & Advanced BOTOX® & Fillers.
I have always had an interest in all things beauty and skin care, and so being able to combine this passion with my existing nursing skills and apply it in a way to amplify others’ self-confidence has always been the most rewarding feeling. The medical aesthetics industry is something I am fiercely passionate about and I am always learning the newest techniques in order to provide my clients with the best results.
Elly Barnhart
Skin, Laser & Coolsculpting Technician
I’m a certified laser technician and was trained by one of the best schools in the industry, Body Bar Laser Academy. Since I was a little girl, I have been interested in skin care and overall skin health. For years I suffered from bad acne and nothing seemed to help, not even the strongest medications. Finding the right skin care line and a little microneedling was what finally cured my acne making me feel so much more confident.
Being able to help our clients with issues like this and many more is what I love about my job. Knowing I’m helping our clients achieve goals is what makes me want to come to work each day at Skin Secrets.
