About Sanctuary Skin

What is Sanctuary Skin?

Sanctuary Skin is an aesthetic and skin clinic serving Brush Prairie, Ridgefield, Vancouver and Camas, Washington. Most of its services are cosmetic: Botox, Dysport and Jeuveau, hyaluronic acid fillers, Sculptra, microneedling, chemical peels, IPL, CO₂ laser resurfacing, HydraFacial and laser hair reduction. Medical weight loss is one more service on that list, and Google categorizes the business as a medical spa.

Medical weight loss is led by Nicole Newton, ARNP, FNP-C, who founded the clinic and describes herself as a board-certified family nurse practitioner. Christen Strader, LME, is a co-owner and the clinic's aesthetician. In its own words: "Evidence-based weight management using personalized medication support and nutrition guidance from a board-certified nurse practitioner." The business has a 5-star rating from 69 Google reviews.

What does it cost?

Medical weight loss starts with a required consultation that includes a one-time $150 fee. Aesthetic and skin consultations are complimentary. The clinic does not publish prices for its weight loss medication or program, and it does not say whether the program cost includes medication. It does not publish prices for its injectables or skin treatments either.

Payment is due at the time of service. The clinic accepts major credit cards and cash, and it offers financing through Cherry Payments. It does not say whether it accepts insurance.

What should you ask before you book?

The clinic does not publish a street address, phone number or hours, so ask for those first. Booking runs through an online scheduling portal. Ask which medication the program would use, and whether it is a brand-name drug or a compounded one. Ask what the program costs in total, and whether that includes the medication and any lab work.

Ask what follow-up visits cost and whether any of them can be done by telehealth, since the clinic does not say. Ask how cancellation works. Ask whether insurance is accepted and whether the Cherry Payments financing applies to the weight loss program. Confirm that Nicole Newton is the prescriber who will review your care.

Who is it a good fit for?

This is a good fit if you want cosmetic injectables or skin treatments and would also like a nurse practitioner-led weight loss program from the same clinic. If weight loss is your main reason to call, get the medication and program costs in writing before you book.
