After working as a midwife in Atlanta and Columbus, Mica transitioned to aesthetics. This shift was influenced by the opportunity to address women's skin and body concerns during routine visits. Drawing on her background in midwifery and nursing, Mica brought a unique perspective to aesthetics, emphasizing the importance of self-care for women who often prioritize their families' needs over their well-being.






Mica's journey into aesthetics involved training in procedures like Botox and fillers, which she found to be not only effective but preventative in addressing signs of aging when women and men begin using them in their late 20s. She debunked the misconception that aesthetics results in an unnatural or "frozen" appearance, highlighting the subtle and rejuvenating effects achievable through treatments like Botox and fillers and noting how different products impact the skin differently. 


DermaWise Body Med Spa meets clients' needs with IV hydration, weight loss programs, laser hair removal, micro-needling, B-12 shots, lash extensions, and more. Mica's passion for aesthetics stemmed from her desire to help women feel confident and comfortable in their skin. As co-founder of DermaWise Body Med Spa, she promoted a holistic approach to beauty and self-care, and the clients benefitted from Mica’s attention and experience.
