Our Team

Karine Hovhannisyan

With over 15 years of experience in the beauty and wellness industry — including work as Operations Manager at a respected medical clinic — Karine has built a career grounded in care, trust, and real results.

Before entering this field, she studied humanism and worked as a journalist covering political news at City Hall, where she collaborated closely with the mayor on projects supporting local businesses and improving city life. That experience taught her the importance of listening, leadership, and understanding people — lessons she carries into every client relationship.

She has completed advanced medical and wellness certifications to better understand how the body functions, especially in relation to skin, lymphatic health, and non-invasive treatments. Her goal is to combine clinical knowledge with warmth, trust, and personal care.

Karine has also worked with individuals facing serious health challenges, including cancer, reminding her that beauty is about dignity, healing, and helping people feel like themselves again. Fluent in three languages, she connects easily with clients from many backgrounds, always striving to understand their stories and needs.

“Every service is a form of self-care — a moment to heal and feel beautiful. It may be the only time someone thinks of themselves that day, and to me, that moment is sacred.”

For Karine, this work is more than a profession — it’s a passion where science meets care, and beauty becomes a path to healing, confidence, and connection.
