Meet Shannon
At 59, Shannon is a nurse, a devoted caretaker, and a lifelong advocate for the well-being of others. After years of selfless caregiving, Shannon found herself looking in the mirror and seeing something she didn’t recognize: the weight of grief and stress etched across her face.
Determined to restore her reflection to the vibrant, energetic woman she felt inside, she turned to Dr. Kienstra and the team at Vos.

Shannon’s story.
"I spent two years as the primary caretaker for my father and brother. When I lost them both within months of each other, I could see it in my face—I didn’t just feel the grief, I looked like it. I wanted to feel like myself again."
After extensive research, Shannon explored options in St. Louis, Oklahoma, and Arkansas before discovering Vos.
"What drew me to them was their philosophy: ‘If it doesn’t look natural, we didn’t do it right.’ That’s exactly what I wanted—to look like myself, just refreshed."
During her consultation, she chose a lower face and neck lift with Fractora, a combination that would smooth and rejuvenate her features while maintaining her natural expressions.

Patient Stories
A Beautiful New Chapter
The recovery process was far easier than Shannon expected.
"The first week, I had my mom and a friend stay with me, which was such a help. But by the second week, I was up and taking care of myself. And by three weeks? I was out at a party! I never thought I’d be out and about so soon after a facelift."
Despite initial concerns, Shannon was thrilled with the results—especially when she returned to Oklahoma for a family gathering.
"People kept telling me how great I looked, how amazing my skin was. And the best part? I hadn’t told anyone I had a procedure done. The results were so natural, it was exactly what I had hoped for."
Even with her Cherokee heritage, which she wanted to preserve in her facial features, Vos ensured her results were nothing but authentic.
"I just wanted to look like me. And that’s exactly what I got."
