Meet Marissa Abdo
Marissa Abdo MS, RN, CANS (Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist) is not only the founder of Aesthetic IQ Clinic but also a top national trainer for the leading aesthetic companies, Allergan and Galderma. Marissa recently moved to Scottsdale from Los Angeles where she spent over 10 years perfecting the art of facial injectables at a Top 10 practice in the nation, delivering natural outcomes to thousands of patients. Marissa’s expertise is assessing her patient’s unique anatomy, creating an individualized treatment plan, and delivering meaningful and impactful treatments that empower her clients.
The term “Aesthetic Intelligence” (the inspiration behind Aesthetic IQ Clinic) refers to the power of the senses to produce treatments, results, and an elevated aesthetic experience while bridging the gap between the art and science of injectables. At Aesthetic IQ Clinic, we promise to deliver an immersive experience where you feel educated, valued, and confident that you are getting the safest, most effective injectables available.
