Christine Ross, RN, CANS

Lead Aesthetic Nurse

Christine Ross is an accomplished Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist who brings over 13 years’ experience to Thrive. She recently relocated from New York City where she began her journey into aesthetics and discovered it was her passion! Motivated by her desire to help people feel confident in their own skin, Christine discovered her love for lasers, injectable treatments and educating patients on skin health. Christine’s mission is to safely and effectively treat each patient individually so that their specific aesthetic needs are met. Her approach to rejuvenation involves a multi-focal treatment and maintenance plan that will not only “fix” something in the moment, but will change how you view skin health and understand the importance of it. Her methodical technique with lasers and other devices has led to her being invited to train peers in advanced techniques with different laser and device manufacturers. Through her extensive knowledge of the field and her affable nature, Christine makes people from all backgrounds feel excited and comfortable about their own aesthetic journeys.

In her free time, you can find Christine on the beach with her dog Penny or spending time with nearby family. Fall is her favorite time of year, not only because it’s her ideal weather, but because it’s the start of football season!
