Ethereal Beauty Buffalo opened in 2024 under the clinical direction of Keira McCarthy, MBA, MSN, NP-C, a board-certified nurse practitioner who brings dual expertise in business administration and advanced nursing practice to aesthetic medicine in Buffalo, NY. The clinic operates at the intersection of cosmetic enhancement and metabolic health, offering comprehensive facial rejuvenation, body contouring, and medically supervised weight management programs. As a Biote Certified Provider, McCarthy integrates hormone optimization principles into treatment planning, recognizing that aesthetic outcomes often depend on underlying endocrine balance and metabolic function.
The clinic's peptide therapy program centers on Semaglutide for weight loss management, administered under direct medical supervision with individualized dosing protocols. Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, is prescribed as part of a structured weight management program that includes metabolic assessment, nutritional guidance, and ongoing monitoring of treatment response. Beyond peptide therapy, Ethereal Beauty Buffalo provides a full spectrum of injectable treatments including dermal fillers for volume restoration and facial contouring, neuromodulators for dynamic wrinkle reduction, and combination protocols designed to address multiple signs of aging simultaneously. The clinic's laser treatment platform addresses skin texture irregularities, pigmentation concerns, and vascular lesions through controlled thermal energy delivery, while skin resurfacing procedures target photodamage and acne scarring using ablative and non-ablative technologies.
Keira McCarthy's clinical approach emphasizes anatomical precision in injectable placement and realistic expectation-setting during consultation. Her MBA background informs the clinic's operational structure, ensuring consistent treatment protocols and transparent pricing models. Patients receive detailed pre-treatment assessments that evaluate skin quality, facial volume distribution, and individual aesthetic goals before any procedure is recommended. For weight loss candidates, McCarthy conducts comprehensive metabolic screening including assessment of contraindications to Semaglutide therapy, review of concurrent medications, and establishment of realistic weight reduction targets based on individual metabolic profiles. Her Biote certification enables her to identify patients whose aesthetic concerns may be compounded by hormonal imbalances, particularly those experiencing age-related changes in estrogen, testosterone, or thyroid function.
The patient experience at Ethereal Beauty Buffalo begins with in-person consultations conducted at the Buffalo clinic, where treatment options are explained using visual aids and before-after documentation from similar cases. For injectable procedures, McCarthy uses precise marking techniques and discusses expected downtime, potential side effects, and optimal timing for follow-up treatments. Semaglutide patients receive detailed injection training, dietary modification guidelines, and scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor weight loss progression and adjust dosing as needed. The clinic maintains a structured approach to combination treatments, often pairing laser resurfacing with topical growth factor serums or coordinating filler placement with skin tightening procedures to maximize aesthetic outcomes. Post-treatment protocols include specific aftercare instructions, access to the clinic for urgent concerns, and scheduled reassessment appointments to evaluate results and plan maintenance strategies.
With 127 five-star Google reviews accumulated since its 2024 opening, Ethereal Beauty Buffalo has established a reputation for thorough patient education and consistent treatment outcomes in the Buffalo aesthetic medicine market. The clinic's focus on medical-grade treatments delivered by a board-certified provider distinguishes it from spa-based aesthetic services, offering patients access to prescription therapies like Semaglutide alongside advanced energy-based devices and injectable techniques. McCarthy's dual certification as both a nurse practitioner and Biote provider enables comprehensive treatment planning that addresses both surface-level aesthetic concerns and underlying metabolic or hormonal factors that influence appearance, weight management, and overall treatment response.
