Our Team

STACEY FRANCOIS, OWNER + FOUNDER

My family moved to Austin in 1976 and I have been a loyal resident of this vibrant, expanding city ever since. My academic journey led me to the University of Texas, where I studied Business and Economics. However, my true calling lay in the medical esthetics industry. In 2011, I earned my Professional Laser Technician’s license and deepened my expertise under the guidance of two influential physicians, gaining profound insights into the science of anti-aging, body composition, and skin care.

As a licensed Functional & Integrative Nutrition Coach, I hold a firm belief that beauty extends far beyond the surface. During my teenage years and early adulthood, I faced constant battles with my skin. Despite visiting countless doctors, specialists, and dermatologists, I amassed a collection of medications and treatments that provided little relief. After decades of frustration, I realized that Austin needed a place offering a more personalized approach to skincare.

Your skin, the body’s largest organ, is the first thing people notice. When you’re uncomfortable in your own skin, it affects your confidence. Our self-esteem is shaped by numerous factors, including heritage and age, which can sometimes feel like unwelcome influences. Aging is inevitable, and our skin serves as a constant reminder of life’s changes. As our bodies and skin undergo these personal transformations, it’s essential to have someone who listens and guides us through this intimate journey.

Our facility offers customized skin and body services tailored to each client’s unique needs. Our holistic approach includes comprehensive aesthetic assessments and ongoing evaluations by our highly skilled and accredited providers. We are genuinely committed to the success and well-being of each patient’s treatment plan and overall goals. At our medical spa, we truly care about helping you feel confident and radiant in your own skin.

ANGELA GUFFEY, SPA DIRECTOR

I joined Body Tonic in March 2020 and I feel so blessed to be a part of such an amazing team! Having been in the aesthetic industry for many years, I appreciate and feel so fortunate to be working with some of the most talented women around. With my long background in customer service, I have always had a strong passion for making clients feel comfortable and well taken care of. I get so much pleasure from meeting each client who walks through the door and making sure their needs are met.

When I am not at work I love spending time with my two children, hiking, paddle boarding, and enjoying all the beautiful things Austin has to offer.

IRIS TAYLOR, ADVANCED AESTHETIC INJECTOR

I’m enthralled by the transformative power of aesthetic medicine and its ability to celebrate natural beauty. My passion lies in the delicate art of enhancing an individual’s inherent features, not altering them. I believe that every person holds a unique beauty that can be refined and highlighted, allowing their confidence to shine through without masking their true self. The synergy between advanced aesthetic medicine and natural beauty preservation fuels my dedication to this discipline. 

I take great pride in my capacity to engage in active listening and foster genuine connections with everyone I encounter, as these relationships are pivotal. For me, the ultimate satisfaction comes from witnessing the joy and renewed self-esteem that patients experience when they see themselves in the best possible light, yet still recognizably themselves.

With a professional tenure exceeding two decades in the field of aesthetics, including over 16 years of meticulous experience specifically in injections, I have amassed a substantial portfolio of over 30 certificates in aesthetic medicine. My commitment to continual professional development is evident, as I rigorously engage in daily research and educational pursuits to refine my expertise. To merely state that I am enthusiastic about my vocation would not do justice to the fervor and dedication that I bring to my practice. It is with a profound sense of professional duty and responsibility that I strive to deliver the safest and latest innovative treatment options. Partnering with you, my aim is to facilitate your journey towards enhanced radiance and confidence, contributing to your overall well-being.

GINA JONES, COSMETIC NURSE

I joined Body Tonic in October of 2014, and bring to the practice over 15 years nursing experience. I am a Licensed Vocational Nurse and before joining Body Tonic, I worked with a plastic surgery group in Austin for over ten years. My experience working with reputable physicians who offer the highest caliber of care truly molded me into the professional I am today. 

Throughout my nursing career I have expanded my skill set on many different levels, with special focus in the aesthetics industry. My experience and knowledge encompasses the whole realm of cosmetic surgery, as well as all aspects of medical aesthetics including Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin injections, all dermal filler enhancements (liquid facelift, lips, cheeks, jawline, tear troughs, etc), Sculptra and Kybella.

I love continuing to evolve in my industry, and constantly add to my knowledge by keeping up with the newest uses for neuromodulators (Like Botox), dermal fillers, and the latest advanced injection techniques. This, coupled with my artistic eye, helps me give each client the optimal results they envision. I offer thorough consultations during which I will assess, listen to your individual needs, and provide you with knowledge and education about the treatments you receive. 

As a nursing professional, I’ve come to understand my true passion for skin and being an injection specialist. Transitioning from a plastic surgery practice to a medical spa practice made perfect sense for me to further my career and focus on being an aesthetic injector. My previous experience not only refined me, but enhanced my ability to conduct comprehensive consultations to give each client a feeling of comfort, and to gain an understanding of their aesthetic needs. I look forward to creating lasting rapports with my clients while offering exceptional treatments and care!

“I am a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of patient care experience. Being able to combine my medical expertise and passion for aesthetics to help others look and feel their very best is an absolute dream come true.

I love nursing for the simple fact that it has no boundaries and is forever evolving, the sky is the limit! I continue to learn new skills on a daily basis so I can provide my patients with first-class and compassionate care. If I’m not at work you can find me in the gym, spending time with my husband and children, or likely at an Italian cuisine!”

KIT KIVELL, PROFESSIONAL LASER TECHNICIAN
MEDICAL AESTHETICIAN + SKIN SPECIALIST

After 15 years in the hospitality industry planning events and loving every minute of it, I decided to start my next chapter in life. My passion for skin care and correcting my own sun damage from the 80s and 90s was always a major concern. I have always been obsessed with skin care since I was a little girl, so logically my next step was to return to school and see what I could learn. 

I went to National Laser Institute where I was taught by some of the field’s leading medical aestheticians.  I learned advanced laser treatments, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, fractional laser treatments, IPL and much more. Once I began my training I knew that I had made the right decision to join this fabulous world. 

After I was certified and licensed,  I joined Body Tonic and felt like I had found the missing piece of my puzzle. Every day I learn something new from each of the talented women I work with, and can’t say enough about our AMAZING clients. Continuing education is important to me and I have completed additional certifications for treatments such as dermaplaning, body contouring with Vanquish, medical aethetics, and BBL and Halo laser/light training with the Sciton Joule.

My main goal was and always has been to make sure every person I come in to contact with leaves feeling amazing….Its a great feeling to love what you do each day!
