Boulevard Success Stories Vol. 10: Elite Aesthetics
In this episode of Boulevard Success Stories, we sit down with Mariesa Porter, MSN, APRN, CANS—founder of Elite Aesthetics—to talk about building one of Manhattan’s most sought-after luxury medical spas.
Filmed in NYC’s Flatiron District, Mariesa shares how she launched Elite Aesthetics in 2017 and quickly scaled it into a science-driven, patient-first practice rooted in best practices—not trends. Her approach? No one-size-fits-all treatments. Every patient experience is thoughtful, personalized, and grounded in clinical expertise.
Behind the scenes, Boulevard powers the operational excellence that makes that level of care possible.
Mariesa dives into how Boulevard’s:
Intuitive booking platform elevates the client experience while simplifying logistics
Robust client charting supports compliant, customized care
Real-time reporting gives her clarity into performance and growth
Marketing tools help drive retention and repeat visits
Automated forms streamline intake with flexibility for a medspa setting
For Mariesa, it’s not just about software—it’s about building a team-focused, driven culture supported by systems that actually work.
Watch to learn how Elite Aesthetics blends clinical excellence with operational precision—and how the right business management platform helps make sustainable growth possible.
