Enchanted Medical Aesthetics was founded by Bridget Martin, DNP, APRN, NP-C, and Cheryl Kimmel PA-C. Bridget and Cheryl have a combined 40 plus years of experience in medicine. Cheryl entered the world of plastic surgery and medical aesthetics by working with the body and facial plastic surgeons. She has experience with procedures such as facelifts, blepharoplasty, neck lift, rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, fat transfer, abdominoplasty (tummy tuck), liposuction, and more. She is a master injector and laser expert with over 16 years of experience in these areas. Bridget has 30 years of experience in nursing, the last 15 of which was spent as a pulmonary and critical care specialist. She trained in aesthetics over a decade ago and developed a passion for facial aesthetics. She is a professor for a large university and has a passion for education.
Bridget and Cheryl are firm believers in continuing education and attend multiple advanced courses with the best in the Aesthetic Industry. They have trained with some of the industry’s top leaders including anatomy cadaver labs with Dr. Surek, advanced techniques with Dr. Rajani and Dr. Shino Bay, lip injection techniques with Julie Horne, advanced techniques with Shelby Miller, and many other leading industry experts. It is their utmost priority to provide safe, high-quality treatments to their clients. They share their knowledge with others through Enchanted Edu., a training program they developed to help other professionals expand their knowledge in the fast-growing field of aesthetics.
After much talk and years of discussing opening their own practice, they took the first steps and Bridget left her Critical Care position and Cheryl left her position in a medical office where she was in charge of the aesthetic side of the practice. Bridget and Cheryl recognized a need for a more personalized approach to facial aesthetics. They had a vision for a high-end, boutique-style space where facial aesthetics and anti-aging are prioritized. This vision was made a reality in 2020, and they founded Enchanted Medical Aesthetics a premiere boutique medspa!
