She loves to work with patients to address their anti-aging goals as well as address any specific concerns they have whether it be acne, acne scaring, lesions, or fine lines. With her years of experience, she has learned that patients' emotional self is optimized when they feel good in their skin.

 Ashley Penta, RN, BSN

Peabody MA Location

Ashley earned her BSN in 2015 at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. While working as a heart transplant/failure RN, she became inspired over time by her patients and the adversities she watched them face first-handedly. Her passion became caring for each person as a holistic whole; inside and out: Mind, Body, and Spirit. Aesthetic Nursing gave her that opportunity and she pursued its journey. Ashley started InjectZEN, a medical spa in Peabody MA, in 2019 to create a safe space for clients. Having a safe space allows her clients to come forward openly with their vulnerabilities, insecurities,  and struggles, while walking away feeling confident and beautiful in their own unique way.
