Ms. Ashley Miller
(She/Her/Hers)
BScN RN
My name is Ashley, I have been a Registered Nurse in good standing with the College of Nurses of Ontario since 2011. I attended Nipissing University to obtain my BScN. I have spent the majority of my career in the hospital setting, working on medicine floors and more acute areas like the Emergency Room. About 4 years ago I went to the International Institute of Aesthetic Medicine in Barrie, ON. I obtained my certification to administer neuromodulators and dermal fillers. I started to treat clients in a small rural town out of a Family Medicine clinic before coming to ACMA clinic in Kanata May 2024. I have such a passion for this work and it really appeals to my creative side.
Since being at ACMA, I have also become certified to perform laser treatments through Cynosure and have been working with Allergan to increase my scope in neuromodulator and dermal filler treatments.
I am so excited to see you at the ACMA clinic and help you reach your skin care goals. I prefer to enhance my clients natural beauty as opposed to changing how they look.
I look forward to meeting you in the future.
