MEET OUR EXPERT
Dr. Carla Jenkins DNP, PhD, ANP-BC
I founded Bella Wellness & Aesthetics with a simple but deeply personal belief:
women deserve care that looks beyond quick fixes and treats the whole person—body, hormones, skin, and life stage included.
As a nurse practitioner, I spent years watching women be dismissed, rushed, or offered surface-level solutions to concerns that ran much deeper. Fatigue, weight changes, skin issues, mood shifts, and feeling “off” were often treated as isolated problems—or worse, as something women were expected to simply accept as part of aging.
I knew there had to be a better way.
At Bella, my approach blends medical expertise with thoughtful, individualized care. I take the time to listen, assess patterns, and connect the dots between hormones, metabolic health, stress, and skin. Whether we’re addressing hormonal imbalances, rejuvenating the skin, or supporting weight and metabolic health, every treatment plan is rooted in science and tailored to you—not a protocol pulled off a shelf.
I believe aesthetics should enhance, not change, who you are. My goal is never to chase trends or over-treat, but to support natural, timeless results that reflect how you feel on the inside. When skin health improves and the body is supported properly, confidence follows naturally.
Bella Wellness & Aesthetics is especially focused on caring for women navigating midlife changes—perimenopause, menopause, and beyond—when the body begins to communicate differently and standard advice often falls short. This stage of life deserves informed, compassionate care that honors both wellness and beauty.
Above all, I value trust, education, and partnership. You won’t be rushed here. You won’t be talked into unnecessary treatments. And you’ll never be treated like a number. My role is to guide, support, and provide medical insight so you can make empowered decisions about your health and appearance.
This is care designed to help you feel like yourself again—balanced, confident, and well.
