In recent years, Alyssa has shifted her focus to aesthetic medicine, where her technical skill, deep understanding of anatomy, and artistic eye allow her to deliver natural, refined results. She specializes in injectable treatments, laser therapies, and skin rejuvenation procedures. Her favourite treatments to perform include neuromodulator injections (such as Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin) and HA filler treatments (Revanesse, Restylane).

A Passion for Boosting Confidence
Alyssa has a particular love for injectable hyaluronic acid fillers, using them to refine facial contours, restore volume loss, and subtly enhance her patients’ natural features. Her approach is highly personalized and tailored to each individual’s unique facial structure, goals, and aesthetic preferences. Whether it’s softening lines, enhancing cheeks and lips, or defining the jawline, Alyssa aims to create balanced, elegant results that boost confidence and never look overdone.
Education
She has completed multiple advanced injectable training programs, including certification from the Canadian Board of Aesthetic Medicine, a 1:1 mentorship at Health One in Toronto and the Master Injector series in Toronto in 2025. She is also a member of the Canadian Society of Aesthetic Specialty Nurses (CSASN). On the weekends, you'll often find Alyssa expanding her expertise by attending advanced training and continuing education courses in aesthetic treatments. She is passionate about staying at the forefront of the industry so she can provide her clients with the highest quality care and the most effective, up to date treatments.
Outside of the clinic, Alyssa is an avid skier who loves spending time on the slopes with her husband and their two young daughters. She is passionate about community service and global outreach, having volunteered locally and provided medical care abroad in Nepal and Kenya.
Alyssa joined Guelph Facial Plastics in 2024 as a hand-selected team member personally trained by Dr. Brace. Her gentle approach, clinical precision, and dedication to patient-centered care make her a favourite among our patients.
I’m truly blown away by the improvement in my skin
I can’t say enough good things about Alyssa and my experience at Guelph Facial Plastics. From the start, she took the time to do a thorough skin analysis, explained exactly what was happening with my rosacea, and built a treatment plan tailored to my needs. She was knowledgeable, professional, and instilled trust every step of the way. I was nervous for my first laser and she kept me calm and I’m truly blown away by the improvement in my skin and so grateful for her expertise and care. Highly recommend and will definitely return to maintain my great skin!
Highly recommend
I’ve had a great experience with nurse Alyssa and the entire office staff. The team is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely focused on educating clients rather than pushing treatments. They take the time to explain options, discuss research-based approaches to skin care, and ensure you feel informed and confident in your decisions. The staff creates a trusting environment by empowering clients to make well-informed choices that lead to effective, natural-looking results. Highly recommend for anyone looking for thoughtful, personalized skin care guidance and treatment.
Gigi and Alyssa were amazing
I had a great experience at Dr. Brace's office with every team member I interacted with. Gigi and Alyssa were amazing and the treatment itself was exactly what I hoped for and wanted. It was honestly perfection in my opinion and expectations - I wouldn't consider going anywhere else for any future treatments based on my experience.
