We prioritize building strong patient relationships by starting with a consultation to understand your unique goals and make collaborative decisions. Your provider will then develop a personalized plan tailored specifically to you. At Vita, rather than augmenting and altering your appearance, we specialize in restoring volume loss and creating a natural and refreshed look. We offer a variety of services that not only enhance your appearance but also boost your self-confidence and help you feel your best.

I had never gone to a med spa before and I knew I wanted to get treatment done as I was beginning to see wrinkles on my forehead that I absolutely hated. I did a ton of research on many Sarasota med spas before finally landing on Kim and I could not be more happy with my decision! I would highly recommend her (and have!) to anyone looking. She listens, shes professional, she gave me all the information I needed and answered all my questions and was so polite!!! I am thrilled with my results. [Show Less]

Kim has changed my appearance for the better! As an aging woman in my 40’s, I have no wrinkles and look better than ever. Despite getting some treatment to my face, no one knows. Everything she does looks natural. I get compliments all the time and people are shocked to learn my age. I credit Kim’s magical touch. Kim is not only talented at what she does, she is kind, explains everything, and is very reliable. I’m so lucky to have found Kim. She is a one of a kind! She is my fountain of youth! [Show Less]

She creates a natural appearance and does not oversell her products. Rarely do I bruise or have pain when she is injecting.

Would highly recommend her conveniently located, easy parking and immaculate office space in Sarasota ?-497? [Show Less]

Prior to picking an injector for my lips I did a ton of research. I found Kim and immediately knew she was the only person I’d trust with my face. She made me feel comfortable by answering all of my questions and listening to what I was looking to achieve cosmetically. She came up with a customized plan for me and I couldn’t happier with my results. She truly knows what she is doing and will not let you look silly which was my biggest fear. I wanted my lips to be more even and look hydrated and my end results were even better than I could have imagined. She is just so great to work with, I highly recommend her services. [Show Less]

Kim is skilled, professional, passionate, educated, an overachiever, polite, friendly, I cant say enough good things about her. I was living in Orlando and had 1 tech and 2 different doctors give me juvederm injections in my lips and they did not look good. Very unsymmetrical and bumpy. Came here and she had to dissolve my previous work and start over. Highly educated on all things in the industry. Customer satisfaction is very important to Kim. Prices are affordable as well. Im back in Orlando and planning on coming all the way back here because she does good work and its hundreds of dollars less then it is in Orlando. Come see her, you wont be disappointed! 🙂 [Show Less]
