Roxanne Cornelius, PA-C
Injection and Laser Specialist/Clinical Educator
Grand Rapids, Michigan
Roxanne is a nationally board certified Physician Assistant who specializes in aesthetic medicine. She graduated summa cum laude from the University of St. Francis, Ft. Wayne, Indiana where she obtained her medical degree as a Physician Assistant.
Roxanne has practiced medicine as a PA for over twelve years. During her career, she has worked in the areas of Family Practice, Occupational Medicine and Urgent Care. Her passion has always been aesthetic medicine and Plastic Surgery. In over six years of practicing as an aesthetic PA, she has injected thousands of patients with Botox and dermal fillers and has consistently enjoyed a very high rate of patient satisfaction.
In embracing Facial Aesthetics as her medical specialty, she has found it to be both challenging and rewarding. Being able to train with experts in Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics has enabled her to learn from the best and further develop her own unique, advanced injection techniques. Roxanne's Physician Assistant education and Plastic Surgery background combined with her soft touch have made her ideally suited to be an Injection and Laser Specialist.
It was an honor for her to be invited by Allergan's (Botox/Juvederm company) corporate offices to a Leadership Forum at their world headquarters in Irvine, California. At this select gathering of top injectors from around the United States, she had the privilege of helping to direct and form best-practice guidelines for this world-renown company.
Being interviewed on local television while performing live injections served as a means of educating viewers on her injection techniques and aesthetic expertise. She is committed to teaching her patients about their aesthetic options with associated risks and benefits and allowing them to make informed choices to more fully participate in their own care.
Roxanne has been a guest lecturer for resident doctors and currently serves as an invited trainer for Allergan's aesthetic faculty. In this capacity, she has the privilege of instructing doctors, nurses and other medical professionals in successfully providing Botox and skin filler injections.
"I am always competing with myself to provide the best, safest, most current and comfortable injection and laser procedures for my patients in a relaxed and professional atmosphere. Each patient is unique and has specific concerns, which I strive to address with compassion, excellence and artistry. I believe in a natural look; 'you, only better' and 'beauty at every age'. I am SO blessed to have a career that I absolutely LOVE and can't imagine anything more fun and rewarding than helping my patients look as good as they feel!"
Her professional affiliations include: American Academy of Physician Assistants, Michigan Academy of Physician Assistants and American Academy of Aesthetic Medicine.
