Tiffany Lynn Nack
Lead Medical Aesthetician & Trainer / Licensed Laser Specialist
Meet TLR’s lead medical esthetician, Tiffany! Her love for aesthetics became a driving force in her life over 13 years ago when she first attended a holistic esthetics school in Boulder and then moved in to a 9 year tenure at a local dermatology practice.
Tiffany brought her extensive experience and knowledge to The Luxe Room, where she is now our Lead Aesthetician & Educational Trainer! In this role, Tiffany provides support, training, and guidance for all aestheticians across our clinics to ensure our providers are up to date with safety guidelines, and best practices for all of TLR’s advanced aesthetic treatments.
Her favorite aspect of aesthetics? “I love to help my patients look and feel their best through developing a comprehensive skin care plan, using the most effective skin care products, coupled with treatments to create optimal skin health!”
While she loves all the treatments that she performs, her favorite is RF microneedling, as it, “stimulates the growth of new healthy skin, creating a controlled skin injury to help build collagen to help with skin tightening providing the best results for overall skin rejuvenation.”
Outside of Tiffany’s undying love for aesthetics, she is a Colorado gal through & through! Originally from New Jersey, Tiffany moved to Colorado 30 years ago to incorporate her favorite pastimes of skiing, hiking, and absorbing all that nature has to offer into her daily life.
When she’s not busy soaking up the Colorado sun (wearing SPF of course), you can find her in the yoga studio or spending time with her 2 beautiful daughters and her fur babies. She is also an avid traveler, having visited some of the world’s most desired destinations including Peru, Bali, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand… the list goes on and on!

She jokes that if Colorado had a beach, you would catch her there every day with loads of sunscreen on!
Maria is not new to aesthetics, and has worked in the field at her previous employer. “I learned so much about operations and running a new business from the ground up, and as a bonus, got to use my aesthetic knowledge to flourish our customer connections.” There’s a reason she has continued to her career in aesthetics, “I love how aesthetics empowers everyone to feel beautiful. It is a luxury in life to aid others in self-love & confidence and it’s fulfilling witnessing the brightness clients exude after a service. And the aesthetics industry is forever moving. It’s always developing and creating and that element is fascinating and exciting to me.” Her absolute favorite treatment that we offer is Clear + Brilliant, she loves how it smoothes any texture and brightens her skin tone! Her favorite product? That’s an easy one, she loves Skinceuticals Triple Lipid Restore, she calls it her holy grail and has transformed her usually dry skin to hydrated!
