Meet Tera

Care from someone who actually listens.

Tera Salness is the Nurse Practitioner and founder of Ascend Beauty & Wellness. She built this practice around a single idea: patients deserve more than a quick appointment and a list of services.

Every plan begins with a real conversation, a careful assessment, and treatments thoughtfully matched to your goals.

Her approach blends clinical expertise with a calm, unhurried patient experience — focused on natural-looking results, healthy aging, and ongoing support along the way.
