As an aesthetic nurse injector at MD Beauty Lab, Brittany Nelson enhances confidence with precision and artistry. As a post-op nurse at Portland Plastic Surgery Group, she’s a calming presence, guiding patients through recovery with compassion and care.
Her path to aesthetics started in a hospital room—but not as a nurse. At 16, Brittany was hospitalized for two weeks, and the kindness of the nurses who cared for her left a lasting impression. She wanted to be there for people the way they were there for her.
She began her nursing career in labor and delivery, but eventually transitioned into aesthetics, blending her clinical background with her passion for creativity. Outside of work, Brittany is a painter, and she brings that same artistic eye to every injection, balancing science and artistry to help her patients feel like the best version of themselves.
One of her favorite parts of the job? Education. When patients come in not knowing the difference between Botox and filler, she breaks it down, sets realistic expectations, and builds trust from the start.

ABOUT MEET THE INJECTOR
Whether you’re trying injectables for the first time or making a change to a new provider, the more you can learn about who your aesthetic injector is before you’re in the chair, the better that appointment will be.
When choosing an injector, you want someone who knows their way around neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify, fillers like Juvéderm and Restylane, and biostimulators like Sculptra.
Meet The Injector features trusted professionals sharing their expertise and stories, so you can feel confident about who you trust with your face.
There’s no substitute for an in-person appointment, but we hope this comes close.
Meet The Injector is a production of The Axis.
Made with love in Austin, Texas.
