GET TO KNOW ME
Allison Bidzinski, RN
Hello! So happy you are here. My name is Allison Bidzinski and I am the Owner of BOTOX bidz (get it?) Welcome to my website. I am a registered nurse with a Bachelors Degree in Nursing from Illinois Wesleyan University and have been a bedside nurse for the last 16 years, specializing in the Emergency Department and PACU (Post Anesthesia Care Unit). Over the last two years I have slowly been breaking my way into medical aesthetics. I have always been interested in aesthetics and wanted to try Botox for years. I finally got up the nerve to try it and was obsessed! There was no turning back... I decided to become certified to inject Neurotoxins and Derma Filler, started an LLC, signed with a Medical Director and the rest is history. Being a nurse injector has been a dream come true and I absolutely love it. My goal is to learn and practice as much as I can, to make you feel and look the best you can. I want to normalize injections and make them easily available.
I am not fancy, I could live on french fries, pizza and wine, I am a Type A perfectionist with control issues, I love leopard print, I rarely wear makeup (high maintenance to appear low maintenance), I drive a minivan (which I am obsessed with), I am stubborn and artistic, I am a stereotypical suburban mom/wife with a goldendoodle, trying to survive life.
Maria Schepis, APRN-FPA
GET TO KNOW MY
Medical Director
Let me introduce you to Maria, the women who makes it all possible. Maria Schepis started as a nurse in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) where she worked her butt off for over 17 years. She decided to further her education and became a nurse practitioner specializing in pain management and critical care telemedicine for another six years. I know this doesn't seem possible - she looks like she is 30 years old. She then she followed a dream of becoming a nurse injector and worked for another three years in aesthetics before receiving her full practice authority in almost every state in the United States. With her FPA she started as a medical director and opened her own med spa, Beautifully You Aesthetics, in the St. Louis area.
She is smart, artistic, patient, driven, loves learning, an aesthetic nerd at heart (attending every aesthetic conference, specialized hands on training, constantly searching to further her education). She also loves to educate and pass along all the pearls she learns along the way. She is a BOSS BABE, wife, and mother of five. We also drive the same minivan, so obviously she is cool. Maria could live on dirty martinis and Mexican food. When she has free time (which rarely happens) you can find her shopping at little boutiques or baking (fun fact: she had a cookie business prior to aesthetics).
