Tera Salness, NP.

Tera is a Nurse Practitioner with a deep clinical foundation and a passion for aesthetic medicine. She founded Ascend Beauty & Wellness to bring a quieter, more considered kind of care to medical aesthetics — one rooted in education, patient relationships, and natural-looking results.

Her work is grounded in evidence-based medicine. Her bedside manner is grounded in warmth. Every treatment plan is built after she's listened — to your goals, your history, and the outcome you actually want.

Patients describe Ascend as feeling personal and unhurried. That's by design. Tera believes the best aesthetic outcomes come from a steady relationship between provider and patient — and from doing fewer things, better.
