Your goals come first Always
At Refine Aesthetics, we understand the hesitation — no one wants to look like a different person. That’s why our approach is deeply personal and intentionally paced. We take time to listen, understand your goals, and design a treatment plan that helps you look like the best version of yourself, at exactly the age you are. Here, aesthetic care is never transactional — it’s a relationship built on trust, expertise, and helping you feel like you again. We also offer great membership programs, so you can bank your funds and pay as you go.
A Legacy Of Trust, Reimagined
Refine Aesthetics is stepping into an exciting new era. Built on Judy’s foundation of trust we are bringing a fresh, elevated vision focused on a more seamless, refined client experience. While you’ll notice thoughtful enhancements, what remains unchanged is our commitment to personalized, relationship-driven care—ensuring every client feels known, confident, and beautifully cared for.

Meet Your Refine Team
Judy Aker RN
Judy always has a story to tell, and she always asks the best questions, the kind that make you feel like you’re the only person in the room. She spent close to 20 years as an ER nurse at UC Health, and she still lights up talking about it: the fast pace, the teamwork, the feeling of helping someone on the worst day of their life. When she retired, she didn’t slow down. She found medical aesthetics instead, and she’s been a nurse injector for 12 years since.
One of our favorite things about Judy is how much she believes in educating people. She wants every client to fully understand the treatment they’re considering, because to her, an informed client is a comfortable one. She loves getting to know the people in her chair, and she takes real pride in making every client feel heard and cared for throughout their whole aesthetic journey.
Family means everything to Judy. She’s married, has grown children nearby, and adores her teenage grandson, especially watching him play hockey. When she’s not at Refine, you’ll find her traveling, cheering on a hockey game, or spending time with her two four-legged kids.

Absolutely fantastic! As usual. Judy takes her time to give me her recommendations and does an incredible job with injections. I moved from Colorado Springs to Erie and still drive to see her. She’s worth it 🙂
-Rachel
I have been getting injectables for many years in a variety of states where I have lived. Judy was exceptional. I am in extremely good hands with her. Staff were so welcoming. I have found a keeper. Thank you!

Marissa Stringer RN
Marissa has one of those personalities that makes you feel instantly at ease, like you’ve known her for years. She’s spent more than 6 years as a nurse, working in critical care and women’s health. She became a nurse for exactly the reason you’d hope: she genuinely wants people to feel valued, seen, and cared for.
What we love most about Marissa is how much heart she brings to her work. She recently made the leap into aesthetics as a nurse injector, and it’s been such a perfect fit for her. She lights up talking about helping clients feel beautiful and confident in their own skin, and that same warmth she brings home to her family shows up in the treatment room too.
At home, she’s raising a sweet baby girl she hopes to fill with confidence, kindness, and charisma, alongside a husband who supports every adventure she chases. When she’s not at Refine, you’ll find her curled up with a good book, out enjoying the outdoors, or soaking in family time. We can’t wait for you to meet her and see the beauty she helps bring out in everyone who sits in her chair.

Brittany Dionisio NP-C
Brittany is one of those people who makes you feel instantly comfortable, which is probably why clients love her so much. She’s a board-certified nurse practitioner with over 10 years of healthcare experience, including time in critical care, plastic surgery, and primary care. That background gives her real clinical depth. But what really sets her apart is how present she is with every single person who sits down in her chair.
What we love most about Brittany is how much she loves learning. She’s always digging into the latest research, techniques, and training. She has a deep passion for overall, long-term health- especially when it comes to women’s health. She brings that same curiosity to every client’s care, too, so nothing is one-size-fits-all with her. She has this gift for blending science and artistry, helping people feel confident and refreshed while still looking and feeling like themselves.
Outside of the treatment room, you’ll probably find Brittany hunting down the best local coffee and pastries wherever she’s traveling. And here’s our favorite fact about her: she grew up on a produce farm that’s been in her family for over 100 years. That same rooted, hard-working spirit shows up in everything she does for our clients.

Brittany D. is the best! She is professional, upfront and realistic about your results. She is very knowledgeable and educates her patients thoroughly so they can make an informed decision. I will always come to her for my injectables. The location is so cute, too.
-Alex
Friendly and professional staff. The office is welcoming and clean. Brittany does such an amazing job with the services she provides and is very knowledgeable. Highly recommend Refine Aesthetics..

Amber Hoderland Licensed Aesthetician & Certified Laser Technician
Amber has been an aesthetician and laser technician for more than 11 years, and you can feel every bit of that experience the moment you sit down with her. Her hands know exactly what they’re doing, and her calm, easy energy fills the room before she even starts. She’s passionate about helping people feel confident, refreshed, and beautiful in their own skin, and it truly shows in the way she works.
What we love most about Amber is how genuine she is with her clients. She doesn’t just treat skin, she builds relationships. She takes the time to really get to know her clients and their families, sometimes over years of visits, and she remembers the small details that make people feel truly seen. She creates a warm, welcoming experience for everyone who walks into her treatment room, and clients leave feeling comfortable, cared for, and confident in their own skin.
Outside of work, Amber trades the treatment room for the great outdoors. She loves loading up the car with her husband and their two pups and heading out to camp under the stars. Whether she’s hiking a new trail or just sitting by a fire, she’s happiest soaking in the fresh air and quality time with the people she loves most.

Love this place. Amber was so welcoming and knowledgeable. I’d recommend her to anyone.
-Kimberly
Amber is great! My Moxi treatments and recovery always go smoothly with her, I love that she handles every treatment with care and precision and always keeps me informed on how my skin will react and heal.
-Hailey
Tammy Matney
Certified Laser
Technician
The first thing you’ll notice about Tammy is her smile. It’s warm and welcoming, the kind that puts you at ease before she’s even said a word. With over 25 years in the beauty industry, she’s spent a lifetime learning how to make people feel comfortable and confident in their own skin, and that experience runs deep.
She’s also a certified laser technician, having trained at Colorado Skin and Laser in Denver to sharpen her craft even further. We love how much care she puts into every detail. She never rushes a treatment plan, taking the time to understand exactly what each client wants before she ever picks up a device, and pairing that thoughtfulness with results-driven treatments.
Outside of the med spa, Tammy is happiest outdoors, whether she’s hiking a new trail, camping under the stars, or spending time with her family and her dogs by her side. She brings that same easy, grounded energy into everything she does at Refine.

I love this beautiful clean facility with amazing women, technology and prices. I’ve been coming here for 12 years and I’ve been using Tammy for my last four visits and I love her so so much. I’m gonna keep coming back. Thanks for helping me keep my beauty.
-Kristen
Micheleen Piken Licensed Esthetician
Micheleen has this way of making you feel instantly comfortable, like you’ve been coming to her for years. She’s warm, easy to talk to, and she genuinely loves getting to know the people who sit in her chair.
That same warmth carries into her work as an aesthetician, where she’s built real expertise in microdermabrasion, micro-needling, and dermaplaning. She takes her time, explains what she’s doing, and makes sure every treatment fits the person in front of her. We love how much she enjoys meeting new people, whether someone’s coming in for their first facial or their fiftieth, and she treats every appointment like it matters, because to her, it does.
Micheleen and her family have called Colorado home for 12 years now, and it clearly agrees with them. When she’s not at Refine, she’s usually out hiking a new trail or exploring somewhere new around the state with the people she loves most.

I absolutely loved my experience with Micheleen! She made me feel so relaxed from start to finish, and my facial, dermaplaning, and scalp massage were incredible. My skin feels amazing, and I can’t wait to book my next appointment!
-Kim
Micheleen was great! She listened, asked questions and she asked for recommendations from her seasoned coworkers. I felt cared for and excited to see my results

Allyson Reish Client Experience Coordinator
Allyson is the first face you see when you walk into Refine, and she makes you feel welcome before you’ve even said hello. As our Client Experience Coordinator, she brings six years of administrative experience and a degree in Cultural Anthropology to how she takes care of people, which honestly makes so much sense once you get to know her.
We love how genuinely curious she is about people. She’s originally from Michigan, and that Midwest warmth comes through in everything she does, from the first phone call to the moment a client walks out the door feeling comfortable, confident, and cared for.
Outside of work, Allyson never turns down a chance to dance, and she’s always planning her next trip. She loves getting lost in a good book, exploring new places, and spending time with her family up in the mountains.

Seyrah Balboa Client Experience Coordinator
Seyrah is our resident “yes girl” when it comes to adventure. New hike? She’s in. Last-minute road trip? She’s already packed. That adventurous spirit comes through in her infectious smile too, the kind that makes you want to say yes right along with her.
She’s the oldest child in a large family, which tells you everything you need to know about how she takes care of people. With a background in client service, she builds real relationships with everyone she works with, and one of our favorite things about her is how she makes every single person feel like a priority.
Originally from Texas, Seyrah recently made Colorado home, and she’s taking full advantage of it. Whether she’s hiking, camping, or discovering somewhere new, she loves everything this state has to offer.

Maria Naylor Owner
If you ask anyone who knows Maria, they’ll tell you the same thing: she’s the most driven, big-hearted person you’ll ever meet, and somehow she makes it look easy. She’ll be the first to tell you she didn’t come from the aesthetics world. Her path started in hospitality, where she spent 14 years building and expanding a restaurant group in Arizona into a $14M company, sharpening her eye for management, operations, and smart growth along the way. After moving to Colorado in 2016, she became an equity partner at a Denver-based CPA firm, guiding small and medium-sized businesses through tax planning and preparation, and she still owns a bookkeeping firm today, because slowing down has just never really been her thing.
When the opportunity came to take the helm of Refine, I watched Maria fall completely in love with it. Refine was built on Judy’s foundation of trust and exceptional care, and Maria believed in it the moment she walked through the door. She’s been so honored to carry that legacy forward. She holds onto the personalized, relationship-driven care already established here, while bringing her own vision for a more seamless, elevated client experience.
What I love most is how she’s built on that foundation to create the kind of place she’d want to walk into herself: never sold a treatment because it looked good or trendy, but truly seen, listened to, and guided toward what’s actually right for her. That same care shows up in the team she’s built around her. She’s surrounded herself with people who share her dedication to honesty, excellence, and genuine connection, and together they’ve built a practice known for exceptional customer service and some of the safest, most trusted care in Colorado Springs. I could not be prouder of her.
❤️ Karalyn
Karalyn Mullins COO
Karalyn is the steady hand working behind the scenes, keeping Refine running the way it’s supposed to. As our COO, she keeps the systems, structure, and people in motion so everything comes together seamlessly, and the rest of the team can focus on our clients.
Her background is in education, where she holds a master’s degree in Educational Leadership. That world shaped how she leads: building clear systems, developing people, and creating structure that actually holds up under pressure. She brings all of that straight into how she runs operations at Refine, keeping the whole team moving in the same direction. Her real gift, though, is making people feel heard and understood. She has a deep sense of fairness, and her ability to problem solve is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. She makes hard things feel manageable, and honestly, I don’t know how we functioned before her.
Outside of work, Karalyn is mom to three amazing kids, which might explain how she keeps so many moving pieces organized at once. She loves a good podcast, coffee with a friend, and watching sports (and when we say sports, we mean all of them). She brings that same heart and energy to everything she does, including Refine.

Frequent refine Questions
Who performs my treatment?
All injectors are RNs or NPs, and every esthetic and laser provider is licensed or laser-certified. You’ll always know exactly who’s caring for you and why they’re qualified to do it.
What happens during my first visit?
We start with a conversation, not a needle. You’ll share your goals, we’ll answer every question — including the ones you’re nervous to ask — and map out a treatment plan built around your timeline. Never pressured, always personal.
Why do you ask for a form of payment when I book?
We ask for a card to hold your appointment, not to charge it right away. Because our providers reserve that time just for you, a $125 fee applies for late cancellations or no-shows — it lets us keep offering thoughtful, unhurried care to every client.
Do you offer payment plans or financing?
We don’t offer in-house payment plans, but we do partner with Cherry to help make treatments more accessible. You can apply in minutes, and if approved, spread your investment over time — no pressure, just another option to consider.
