RefinedMD | Los Gatos + Greater San Jose

McKenna is a Registered Nurse with a strong clinical foundation and a passion for aesthetic medicine, wellness, and patient-centered care. She brings a unique blend of academic excellence, hands-on clinical experience, and artistic precision to every treatment she performs.

McKenna completed her Bachelor of Science in Psychology, Nursing, and Family Nurse Practitioner degree. She currently practices as a Registered Nurse at Stanford Health Care simultaneously, where she has spent several years caring for complex medical and surgical patients. Her experience at one of the nation’s leading academic medical centers has shaped her meticulous approach to safety, assessment, and evidence-based practice—skills that translate seamlessly into aesthetic medicine.

In addition to her hospital career, McKenna has years of experience performing facial injectables and working extensively with advanced laser technologies. She is well-versed in neuromodulators, dermal fillers, PRF/PRP, and laser-based skin rejuvenation treatments. McKenna is known for her ability to customize treatment plans, focusing on facial harmony, subtle enhancement, and natural-looking results.

McKenna’s passion for patient care extends beyond the clinic. She has traveled and volunteered internationally in Ecuador and Africa, providing medical support and health education to underserved communities. These experiences have deeply influenced her approach to care—reinforcing the importance of compassion, cultural humility, and individualized treatment for every patient she serves.

One of the reasons we are excited to have McKenna at RefinedMD is her commitment to personalized, high-quality care. Patients consistently describe her as warm, attentive, and detail-oriented. She takes the time to listen, educate, and collaborate with patients to ensure each treatment aligns with their goals while maintaining safety and balance. Her favorite treatments include neuromodulators and facial balancing with fillers, where small, thoughtful enhancements can create a meaningful boost in confidence.

Outside of the clinic, McKenna enjoys traveling, staying active, and spending time outdoors with friends and family. She looks forward to welcoming you to RefinedMD and helping you feel confident, refreshed, and empowered.
