Nadya Kozlova & Shay Sim : The Shocking Secret Behind Effective Skin Treatments

 Nadya Kozlova and Shay Sim, pioneers of the medical aesthetics industry, with roots in the field dating back to 2000 and decades spent shaping what results-driven medical aesthetics practices look like today. In 2010, they founded Kucumber Skin Lounge, now an award-winning practice with three locations across Seattle, Bellevue, and Bellingham. While neither are physicians nor master aestheticians themselves, they are deeply hands-on owner-operators known for building and leading teams of top-tier medical providers across the Pacific Northwest. Their practices are recognized for delivering the most advanced treatments available—both downtime and no-downtime—by consistently bringing in the latest, most effective technologies and protocols. That same clinical-forward vision led to the launch of Viktor Michael Skincare in 2023, created to prevent and reduce downtime associated with injectables and advanced aesthetic procedures.
