The Distinguished Women Award is a prestigious program by the American Med Spa Association (AmSpa) to honor those who have shown outstanding leadership, innovation and dedication in the field of medical aesthetics. Medical aesthetics is composed of majority women owners and medical professionals, and it is important to recognize the talents, technique and business acumen of women who are dedicated to moving the industry forward. Excellence isn't uncommon in this field, but AmSpa's Distinguished Women in Medical Aesthetics have managed to uniquely stand out.

• Fosters a mindset of growth and evolution in medical aesthetics;
• Takes charge and takes risks; and/or
• Feels a true passion about medical aesthetics and the patients she serves.
