Bella Derma Information

Bella Derma was founded in October of 2006 by Melissa Rushing, Ceo/Medical Aesthetician. Melissa has 8 years of experience in the Aesthetics Field. She began as a MakeUp Artist and Skin Care Consultant, traveling to New York City in order to help her clients get started modeling with the industry's top agencies, Wilhelmina, Elite,Trump, and Ford. She then furthered her passion for helping others by attending DaySpa Career College and receiving her diploma and license in Aesthetics. After graduation she was offered a position as head of the cosmetics division of a Dermatology practice, where she worked for almost three years. It was during her time at the practice that Melissa realized the passion and real potential she had for offering her clients even more. Melissa started Bella Derma as the ideal setting to do just that.

As she personally suffered with very bad cystic acne from the age of twelve, Melissa never imagined she would one day be capable of helping others find relief from something she struggled so terribly with as a young woman. That realization is what fueled and continues to fuel her passion and eagerness to help others who are suffering from similar experiences. Melissa was in and out of the dermatologist's office while growing up, and out of desperation she tried every prescription, every topical cream, and every gimmicky infomercial product in an effort to clear up her acne. Yet still...the acne always returned. It wasn't until Melissa figured out the root causes of her breakouts that she was able to get them under control. Now, she is able to devote all of her professional time and energy into teaching her clients what those root causes are so she can help them deal effectively with their skin and health care problems. Melissa's focus for both her and her clients isn't simply for treating the surface ...
