Krista
Licensed Esthetician & Senior Laser Technician
Krista is a licensed esthetician, senior laser technician, former aesthetics instructor, and ZO Skin Expert whose career has centered on advanced skin and laser treatments since 2021. Her experience spans corrective skincare, laser hair removal, light-based treatments, collagen remodeling, resurfacing, and medical-grade home care.
Before joining ZO Skin Centre Houston, Krista spent four years performing laser hair removal. The pace and variety of that work gave her extensive hands-on experience treating many body areas and working with both women and men.
Krista also taught at Texas Laser Institute from 2022 to 2024, preparing estheticians, nurses, and future aesthetics professionals in laser apprenticeship, microneedling, and exfoliation techniques. That educator's perspective shapes the way she explains options, prepares patients for treatment, and builds realistic plans.
Today, she focuses on advanced skin rejuvenation and correction, particularly acne-prone skin, pigmentation, texture, and resurfacing. Known by patients as an Esthi-Bestie, Krista pairs technical experience with a warm, high-touch approach designed to make long-term skin care feel clear and achievable.
