About Lisa Faer
Graduating at the top of her class, Lisa completed her undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Computer Science with plans to continue on to medical school. However, after working intimately as a rehabilitation therapist for children with autism, Lisa realized that the nursing profession was a better fit, as she thrived in environments that allowed her to build therapeutic relationships and spend quality time caring for people. On an academic scholarship, Lisa went on to complete her second degree in nursing and graduated Summa Cum Laude with High Honors from the highly selective accelerated nursing program at the University of Maryland. She then received additional training at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital on one of the most acute Psychiatric Inpatient units in the nation.
Upon her return to her hometown of Piedmont, California, Lisa obtained a part-time adjunct faculty position at the University of San Francisco, teaching clinical rotations at Stanford Hospital. It was through the influence of mentors at Stanford and USF that Lisa developed a knowledge base and passion for the burgeoning field of aesthetic medicine. She began her work in aesthetic nursing at Soña MedSpa, where she served as lead nurse before transitioning into private practice with cosmetic dermatologist, Dr. Thomas Munyon. Lisa continued to develop her expertise by receiving her Nurse Practitioner degree and completing extensive training and certifications in areas of facial rejuvenation, skin care, and laser hair removal. Her specialty includes cosmetic injectables (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin & Fillers), Ultherapy, Body Contouring, Intense Pulsed Light rejuvenation, Fractional Skin Resurfacing, Laser Hair Removal and medical grade customized skin care for aging and acne prone skin. She thrives in environments that allow her to build therapeutic relationships and spend quality time caring for people. Lisa believes in a holistic, multi-faceted approach: not only treating the skin
