Gabriella Mossini
Licensed Medical Aesthetician and Electrologist LSO, Facial Specialist, CPR Certified
Hello, I’m Gabriella — your dedicated Aesthetician, passionate about helping you turn back time and feel confident in your skin.
Beauty and aesthetics have been part of my life since childhood. With a grandfather who was a barber and a mother who traveled for Revlon as a makeup artist, it was only natural for me to follow in their footsteps. My earliest memories involve experimenting with lipsticks, eyeshadows, and scissors — always creating, always learning.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Florida Atlantic University, then pursued my passion for skin by becoming a licensed esthetician. I continued my education at Hollywood Institute, earning my electrology license, which allows me to perform electrolysis, laser hair removal, and advanced laser treatments. I also hold certifications in thermocoagulation, microdermabrasion, and laser safety.
My commitment doesn’t stop at licensing — I invest in continuous education, advanced certifications, and training on the latest clinical-grade treatments, products, and technology. This ensures I can provide the most effective, personalized care for all skin types.
When you choose my services, you’re not just booking a treatment — you’re beginning a journey. I’m here to guide, educate, and support you in achieving healthier, more radiant skin, so you can become the most confident version of yourself.
Tamara Lea
Esthetician- Eyelash & Brow Specialist
I started in this industry from assisting my family owned hair salons. I received my Cosmetology license and continued to do hair for 10 years. Over that time, I’ve had the opportunity to perfect my hair skills while incorporating skincare, nails, and brows to my roster.
I then inquired about eyelash extensions and was intrigued, being able to create and be detail oriented in a relaxing environment was exactly what I wanted. As a perfectionist, I take great pride in building a professional bond with cliente while meeting their expectations!
