Holly Meehan
  • Holly Meehan RN, BSN

    Meet Holly, your certified nurse injector who has been working as a nurse in the field since graduating with her BSN in 2015. A North Carolina native, she began her career at UNC here in Chapel Hill as an RN in the orthopedic / trauma unit. She joins us from her latest role at UNC in Reconstructive Plastic Surgery, where she partnered with her surgeons to coordinate and conduct operative care for their patient populations, including breast cancer reconstruction, trauma reconstruction, and gender affirmation surgery.
    Holly loved getting to see and be a part of her patients regaining confidence in their bodies throughout their journey. "Feeling comfortable in your own skin is as big a part of healthcare as any other aspect; it touches the core of who you are as a person!" Entering the MedSpa world felt like a natural step in her career to foster her passion for helping people feel their best. Holly works closely with each of her clients on an individual basis to ensure that their goals and needs are being met.
    Outside of healthcare, she is bilingual, able to speak both English and Spanish. On a typical weekend, you can find her cooking, crafting, gardening, or reading with her two cats. She also has a taste for adventure, having traveled to 13 countries and recently having backpacked 1,000 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail through California and Oregon. She looks forward to meeting and working with you!
