\"Rachel<\/em>Photo Credit: Courtesy of Rachel Duke<\/span>Rachel M. Duke, NP, CANS<\/strong><\/a>, started her career of caring for patients in 1997 as a Registered Nurse. She worked in the Emergency Department and as an Organ Transplant Coordinator through 2004 before deciding to become a Nurse Practitioner. Through those experiences, she discovered a love for aesthetics and shifted her focus to the industry in 2005.\u00a0In 2013, Rachel became Central Virginia\u2019s first Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist. Rachel has been named one of America\u2019s Top 100 Injectors since 2018, and Real Self tapped her as one of its Top 25 Injectors.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Learn more about aesthetic injector expert\u00a0Rachel Duke<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0in this introductory Q & A.<\/em><\/p>\n

What is your greatest achievement?<\/h3>\n

Starting my own practice to deliver an optimal experience for my patients. It was a leap of faith to work on business plans during the pandemic, and I\u2019m so grateful to everyone who has put their trust in my services.<\/p>\n

What is the future of your field?<\/h3>\n

We\u2019ll see continued advances in products and more research on advanced techniques for injectables. This will Include new hyaluronic acid fillers, biostimulators, and longer-acting neurotoxins. The wallet share of the injectables business will continue to grow as a larger percentage of the overall aesthetics industry.<\/p>\n

What is the biggest misconception about your field?<\/h3>\n

From a nursing perspective, the aesthetic industry seems glamorous on the outside as opposed to a more traditional nursing role in a hospital or medical practice. While both require a lot of work, dedication, and drive to be the leader in your field, the aesthetics business is far more competitive. You must be prepared to eat, sleep and breathe it every day.<\/p>\n

What are your most requested procedures?<\/h3>\n

Botox and midface augmentation.<\/p>\n

What are you best known for?<\/h3>\n

Patients say they come to my new injectables boutique because they appreciate the personal, patient-centered experience. They want someone who listens and provides natural results. I offer realistic assessments using advanced education and help patients understand what is possible with injectables. I\u2019ve also made lifelong learning a priority and enjoy training others.<\/p>\n

What is your most memorable patient reaction?<\/h3>\n

Without a doubt, it\u2019s seeing the increased confidence in patients. A patient might describe something about themselves they find undesirable, or perhaps feel great but think they look tired. After I provide treatment, it\u2019s rewarding to see their faces glow. They exude a higher level of confidence in themselves. Isn\u2019t that want we all want!<\/p>\n

What sets your practice apart?<\/h3>\n

That it\u2019s truly patient-centered. Patients have direct contact with me and have autonomy with scheduling their appointments online. The process is completely paperless. They don't have to deal with anyone in the middle at any point in the process. I like to be accessible and available.<\/p>\n

What do you love most about your profession?<\/h3>\n

I love that the industry is ever-changing. There\u2019s no chance you\u2019ll get bored. To be successful you must stay on top of trends, good and bad, and maintain education. Also, our patients are ever-changing. They represent more of a diverse population, along with not only the aging population but also how they seek treatment sooner.<\/p>\n

What new services are you excited to offer?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019ll be adding thread lifts and providing more retail skincare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
