Our Story
I'm Kristen Miller, founder of Boho Studios here in Old Town Fort Collins, where we prioritize a natural, understated beauty over the overly done look. With 14 years of experience as an aesthetic nurse injector, I've honed my skills to not only master traditional techniques but also to embrace advanced methods for a genuinely natural appearance. My approach to injecting neurotoxins and fillers is refined by extensive experience, and I take pride in my artistry in aesthetic injections. For the past 8 years, I’ve also specialized in PDO lifting threads, having used thousands of them to achieve remarkable skin lifting results. This technique offers an effective alternative to multiple syringes of filler or invasive surgeries. At Boho Studios, our team includes three expert nurses, a physician’s assistant, and a medical director. Together, we create a medical spa environment that combines expertise with a serene, relaxing atmosphere, ensuring you receive top-notch care in a beautiful, tranquil setting.

Kristen Miller (Kris)
BSN RN, Medical Aesthetic Injection Specialist; Clinical Educator for American Institute of Aesthetic Medicine; Owner of Boho Studios Training CenterKris is an expert in facial aesthetic, non-surgical treatment of facial aging and restoration of full facial volume. Kris provides aesthetic consultations and treatments with injectables such as neuromodulators and dermal fillers. In 1991, Kris received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Her nursing career began in acute and critical care medicine and transitioned to aesthetic medicine in 2010. Kris trained at the Advanced Medical Aesthetics Center with Dr. Jeffrey Raval and Dr. Ben Lee in Denver Colorado, as well as at the Rocky Mountain Laser College in Lakewood Colorado. Since then, Kristen has become a unique aesthetic injector. She is passionate about her work and is known for her very calm and gentle touch, clinical expertise, and the ability to create a subtle natural look on her clients.
Kris's Philosophy & ProductsAge With Intention®
How do you want to age? Aging is inevitable, but it’s how we approach it and where our mindsets are in regards to the subject. Intention. That word can have many definitions. The foremost one being, a goal or a plan. People get caught up in the verbiage in regards to injectables with phrases like “beating/rewinding the clock” or “aging backwards”. I’m asking you to reframe your way of thinking with injectables. Embrace your age with an intention. How do you want to look? To feel? What’s your intention? |
Kris works with a variety of injectable products including neuromodulators such as Botox®, Dysport®, Xeomin® and dermal fillers including Radiesse®, Belotero®, Restylane Lyft®, Restylane Silk®, Restylane Refyne®, Restylane Defyne®, Juvederm Ultra®, Juvederm Ultra Plus®, Juvederm Vobella®, Juvederm®, Voluma®, Kybella®, Sculptra®, and Harvest Technologies Platelet Rich Plasma®. She also has experience with Fractional CO2 therapy and Microneedling.
My intention these past several months has been to up my game for my clients. I have been injecting Neuromodulators and Dermal fillers since 2010. I have worked very hard to obtain the advanced training necessary to become a clinical educator for Merz® Aesthetics, as well as create my own training facility in order to share the techniques I have perfected over the years. The latest addition to my repertoire is the ArqueDerma® Artistic Restoration Lift® and the InstaTox® technique. These will help create the look I have always wanted to achieve for my clients, which is a purely natural, refreshed look, rather than the overfilled look that give injectables a bad name. As of 2019 I have become a trainer for the American Institute for Aesthetic Medicine, and in the last year and half I have become a top tier Nova Threads injector in the United States. At their finest, injectables are meant to enhance and soften your natural features and restore lost volume. As an expert practitioner, I pride myself in leaving my clients feeling confident and looking like a refreshed version of their natural self.

This provides natural , more dramatic results not achievable using conventional filler techniques offered by most clinics.

Alexandria Sutton
RN, BSN
Ali is a Colorado native that received her Bachelors in Science of Nursing in 2019. She has since worked in the Intensive Care Unit, and has been a nurse injector at Boho Studios since 2022. She trained under Kris as Kris's first employee, with the intention to help serve more of Northern Colorado (and beyond), and deliver what Kris's existing clients have come to expect from Boho Studios. Ali offers neurotoxin injections, dermal filler, PRF, is our Morpheus8 expert, and most recently has started performing IPL, Laser Hair Removal, and three modalities of women's health treatments. Ali has a passion for connecting with people, and loves to serve. Her ICU training has helped her develop medical excellence, and she loves bringing that into aesthetics, to serve a very different population of patient care.
A note from Ali: I can't express what an honor it is to work under Kris, and alongside the amazing girl-team at Boho Studios! I have wanted to get into medical aesthetics since I was an acne-ridden teenager, and have only grown more excited about it the more I learn (and the more birthdays I have, trying to rub off on my face). I love helping my clients feel confident about themselves, and appreciate each individual's concerns and goals. From skin tightening, structural remodeling, techniques to keep and even build collagen, to scar treatments, pigment reduction, and laser hair removal, I love playing with our ever growing list of services we offer, and especially with our amazing clients we serve. Most recently, I'm beyond thrilled to now offer an array of women's health treatments. |
While I LOVE aesthetics, helping women to address issues and treat issues that many suffer in silence with, this new line of treatments serves my soul that yearns to help a vulnerable population. Since my training I have helped women regain confidence in themselves by helping address issues from increased vaginal/labial laxity, decreased sensation during sex, lubrication issues, painful sex, and even stress and/or urge incontinence. When a client told me she made it through the day without having to change her pad, which she has had to change multiple times a day, for decades, I cried the happiest of tears! When another client told me she had her first orgasm since her third child had been born, nearly a decade ago, I leapt for joy and celebrated with her! I give a major [darn] about helping all people; and as a proud woman and mother, I am elated to be in a position to help other women take back their bodies, regain their confidence, and celebrate themselves the way they deserve to be celebrated!

Hello Everyone! My name is Maggie and I have been lucky enough to be here at Boho for a year now :)
I am Kristen's assistant, as well as I am the Certified Inmode Specialist for Evolve and Evoke. I am extremely passionate about aesthetics and the beauty industry, as I struggled in my younger years with confidence and self love. I am extremely grateful to Kristen for giving me this opportunity to expand my knowledge and skills in the industry, while being in this beautiful environment and family at Boho. Though I am young, I am driven and ambitious and have spent my latter adolescence into adulthood focusing on perfecting my skills and becoming the professional I am today. My main goal in life is to make others feel amazing about themselves and assure that my clients leave with a smile on their face, as I understand the struggle to feel confident in my own skin. Kris is an amazing woman and owner and what she has created gives me the opportunity to align my goals with business and make each day a special experience for myself and my clients. I absolutely adore everyone who has and will walk through my door, and wake up everyday excited for what Boho Studios has in store for me. |

As a young girl, I watched my grandfather and mother in the healthcare world, which started my interest. Throughout my life I have experienced loved ones who have gone through many different hardships with their health, and this fueled my passion for this industry and just how important patient care and healthcare is in this world. I received my CNA license in August of 2020 and began my healthcare journey at Good Samaritan in Loveland.

Going though this course was an amazing opportunity for me, and taught me the importance and impact of emergency medicine.
