Kelsey Salvatico FNP-BC
Owner & Co-Founder
Kelsey is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania before going on to earn her master’s degree from Columbia University. Prior to founding Minimale, she began her career as a medical dermatology provider, diagnosing and treating skin conditions as well as managing chronic skin disorders. She crafted detailed and individualized skin care regimens for her patients, utilizing chemical peels, prescription strength skin care and a variety of lasers. As the aesthetics industry gained momentum and Kelsey found herself increasingly treating cosmetic patients, she found her real passion. Over the past 7 years she has honed her skills in minimally invasive cosmetic procedures, helping to train and pass on knowledge to new injectors. She also has fine tuned her artistic eye, most importantly learning that there are no shortcuts in facial balancing. There are no standardized blueprints or formulas to follow when enhancing unique attributes and she specializes in helping her patients to maintain a balanced approach to injectables. Kelsey founded Minimale with her best friend Emmy to ensure that their patients receive the individualized care they deserve.
