With a theme of natural results, personalized injections, and transparent pricing- Modern SLC Injections & Aesthetics will be sure to please each client that walks through the door.
Dr. Hillary Taggart has been in the medical aesthetic industry since 2014 where she began her career at a plastic surgeon’s office.

She has noticed that so many offices will go purely for quantity over quality, leaving their clients overdone and looking unnatural. Her goal is to first listen to her clients to understand their needs, concerns and desired results. Secondly, she takes time to educate the client so they understand why she may choose one product vs another or suggest one area to treat in addition to a concern a client brings up.
Her technique creates a result that “Everyone will notice, but no one will know.” The extra time and attention she dedicates brings clients to Dr. Taggart’s office from across the United States, as her work and communication speaks for itself. Her energy is contagious, and her results are beautiful, restorative, and natural. It’s apparent to all that meet her she is passionate about what she does.
