About Us

Dr. Jackson Rhudy is a board-certified physician who has been practicing in Salt Lake since 1974. After an initial career in emergency medicine, he developed an interest in the new technologies emerging in the field of aesthetics utilizing non-surgical techniques such as lasers, Botox, and injectable fillers. He sought training from leading experts in the aesthetic field at multiple locations in the US and Europe and in 2000 he founded an aesthetic practice called Light Touch Laser Skin Care Center. It rapidly became a leading aesthetic practice in the Salt Lake City area. In 2010, he sold the practice and focused on his other endeavor, Optimum Clinical Research– a private research site that performs clinical trials on new pharmaceutical drugs. But continuing demand from former aesthetic patients led to the formation of a new aesthetic practice in July 2015. Reuniting with a former colleague, Jill Miller, they started Nuance Aesthetics—a practice devoted to providing excellence in the field of non-surgical aesthetics by offering experience and expertise with the utmost integrity. Dr. Rhudy maintains his board certification in emergency medicine and is the only physician in Salt Lake City who is board certified in laser surgery.

When Dr Rhudy isn’t in the office, he loves riding his bike up City Creek. He has always had a passion for learning and growing in the medical field which is why he spends a lot of free time researching the latest treatments and technology that keeps Nuance ahead of the curve.

Katie graduated from the University of Utah in 2002 with a bachelor’s degree in Chemistry, and then went on to get her Master Aesthetician’s License in 2004. She loved the industry so much that she returned to the University of Utah in 2008 to get her Nursing Degree so that she could continue to provide the highest quality treatments for her clients.
Katie adheres to a “less-is-more” approach to aesthetics and injectables and is dedicated to long-term relationships with her clientele to maintain subtle improvements over time. She prides herself in the continued education of facial anatomy and changing injectable best-practices and is proficient at all injectable techniques – specializing in pan facial optimization and harmony.
Katie has a zest for life and loves the outdoors and hiking with her husband, Chip and dog, Target. One endearing trait we love about her is that she views the whole world as a song, so don’t be surprised if she hums unconsciously to you while injecting.

KATIES FAVORITE TREATMENTS
+ Forever Botox. It has made my face look rested and youthful with the added benefit of taking away my tension headaches.
+ Sculptra. It’s a yearly necessity to maintain healthy skin and volume loss.
+ Retin-A. This – combined with consistent use of sunscreen – has kept my face, neck, and chest from aging.
+ Laser and light therapies at least quarterly – from BBL, to Microneedling and PRF.

STACEY'S FAVORITE TREATMENTS
Botox-quick and easy way to maintain natural beauty! Gives confidence by reducing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, on the forehead, and those unsightly “tech lines” on the neck. Just for a start!
BBL reduces redness and pigment and improves skin texture with no downtime! Can use anywhere on the body where sun damage has occurred.
Sculptra-long-term results stimulate collagen production that is natural and subtle. My absolute favorite!
