Kentucky’s only Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training site continues its commitment to advanced aesthetic education, bringing medical professionals together for hands-on injectable training led by Dr. Paul Hester and Chasity Hester, PA-C.
LEXINGTON, KY | October 29, 2026 — On Wednesday, October 28th, Be Medispa welcomed medical aesthetic providers from across Kentucky and surrounding states to its Lexington facility for a Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training day.
Led by Be Medispa co-founders Dr. Paul Hester and Chasity Hester, PA-C, the training brought together medical professionals seeking to expand their knowledge of advanced injectable techniques and further develop their approach to nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.
As Kentucky’s only Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training site, Be Medispa is proud to support continuing education for aesthetic medical providers throughout the region.
For the Be Medispa team, the day reflected what has defined the practice since its founding in 2004: a commitment to education, medical expertise, and helping patients achieve beautiful, natural-looking results.
Chasity Hester, PA-C, has spent more than two decades working in aesthetic medicine, helping patients navigate their options for nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.
During the October 28th training, Chasity shared her clinical experience with visiting providers and demonstrated advanced injection techniques using products from the Merz Aesthetics portfolio, including Radiesse and Belotero.
The hands-on training gave participating providers an opportunity to learn more about facial assessment, injectable treatment planning, and techniques designed to achieve natural-looking results.
Beyond the technical aspects of treatment, Chasity emphasized the importance of understanding each patient’s facial anatomy and developing an appropriate treatment approach.
At Be Medispa, this philosophy guides every consultation. The team believes that successful aesthetic treatment begins with understanding the patient before recommending a procedure.
A Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence is a designated training location where qualified medical professionals can receive education and hands-on instruction in aesthetic injectable treatments.
These educational opportunities allow providers to learn from experienced practitioners, expand their understanding of treatment techniques, and continue developing their clinical skills.
Be Medispa is the only Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training site in Kentucky, making its Lexington location an important educational resource for aesthetic medical providers in the state and surrounding region.
Through its continued partnership with Merz Aesthetics, Be Medispa can share its experience with providers committed to advancing their education and the care they deliver to patients.
For a medical spa that has served Central Kentucky for more than 22 years, this recognition reflects the practice’s longstanding dedication to aesthetic medicine.
Founded in 2004 by Dr. Paul Hester, MD, MBA, and Chasity Hester, PA-C, Be Medispa was Kentucky’s first medical spa.
Since opening its doors, the practice has continued to grow while maintaining its physician-led approach to nonsurgical aesthetic treatments.
In January 2026, Be Medispa opened its new 10,000-square-foot facility in Lexington, expanding its space for patient care and professional education.
The facility includes a dedicated training space for medical professional education.
Hosting the October 28th Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training allowed us to welcome providers to the facility and continue building Lexington’s role in advanced aesthetic education.
The training also reflects Be Medispa’s broader commitment to investing in education that benefits both medical providers and the patients who depend on their expertise.
Choosing an injector is an important decision, especially when considering treatments involving facial fillers, collagen biostimulators, and nonsurgical facial rejuvenation.
Patients deserve to understand who is performing their treatments, what experience that provider brings to the appointment, and how they develop treatment recommendations.
Advanced aesthetic training helps providers continue refining their understanding of facial anatomy and injection techniques. Ongoing education also creates opportunities to discuss evolving approaches to patient assessment and treatment planning.
At Be Medispa, we apply the same principles from professional training to our everyday patient care.
We encourage patients to discuss their concerns and understand their treatment options before deciding.
For individuals searching for the best medspa in Lexington, KY, the medical expertise behind the treatments matters.
Be Medispa’s role as a Merz Aesthetics Center of Excellence training site also gives patients insight into the practice’s level of professional education and clinical experience.
Be Medispa has received national recognition for its work in nonsurgical facial and body rejuvenation, including honors through The Aesthetic Awards.
Under the leadership of Dr. Paul Hester and Chasity Hester, the practice has continued to expand its expertise in advanced aesthetic medicine, offering patients a comprehensive range of nonsurgical treatment options.
Its providers work with patients on individualized treatment plans that may include neuromodulators, dermal fillers, collagen biostimulators, laser treatments, and other aesthetic procedures.
The Be Medispa team values being an award-winning medical spa, but educating other medical professionals is especially rewarding.
The October 28 training brought that commitment to life as providers gathered to learn, exchange knowledge, and continue developing their skills.
Be Medispa sincerely appreciates Merz Aesthetics for its continued partnership and support of advanced medical education.
The team also thanks the medical providers who traveled to Lexington to participate in the October 28th training.
Their dedication to continuing education helps advance aesthetic medicine throughout Kentucky and beyond.
We also want to thank the wonderful patient models who participated in the hands-on training and helped make the day possible.
