COMPASSION, Community and the AGELESS Approach

Amazingly Ageless Medspa is, at its heart, a story about family—both the one you’re born with and the one you choose. Kristin and Erik Sandborn, parents to seven grown children and grandparents to seven, didn’t set out to build just another Medspa. They wanted something warmer, more personal, and infinitely more genuine. They wanted a place where people could show up exactly as they are—no apologies, no pretenses—and leave feeling not just rejuvenated, but truly understood.

You can sense this philosophy the moment you walk in. Kristin, the lead aesthetician and co-owner, has a knack for making people feel seen. She’s both a professional and educator, someone who can explain the intricacies of skin health in plain English, but who also understands your specific skincare goals. Her husband, Erik, is the steady presence behind the scenes—licensed massage therapist, office manager, fixer of all things, and the kind of person who can put anyone at ease, no matter their age or anxiety level. After raising a houseful of kids, there’s not much that rattles him, and if he doesn’t know the answer to your question, he’ll find it out for you.

Their approach is refreshingly simple: people over profit, always. Kristin says it best: “We care about our clients, and when we hear our clients asking questions about concerns they have, we turn to education first so that we can appropriately invest in the solutions and technologies that will best meet their needs. Serving clients in a small town can be a challenge because they may not always have the funds or time to devote to expensive treatments. My team invests time into understanding the client needs and educating them on creating programs where they can see progress without a huge investment.” That’s not just a mission statement—it’s a daily practice.
The team at Amazingly Ageless is as diverse as the community they serve. Half the staff is over forty, which means conversations about menopause, thinning hair, or changing skin aren’t just tolerated—they’re welcomed. Women find comfort in knowing they can speak freely about aging, and they’ll be met with empathy, not empty platitudes. Younger clients, meanwhile, connect with staff who understand the latest trends and can offer advice that genuinely aligns with their stage of life. This intergenerational mix creates a space where everyone, regardless of age or background, feels a sense of belonging.

Walk down the hallway and you’ll hear laughter—sometimes from the front-desk area where staff swap stories about their own families, their experiences, or the latest episode of AA Skin Babes Unfiltered, the Medspa’s hit podcast. Hosted by Lena, Heather, Laura and Kristin, the podcast is a blend of real talk, expert advice, and the kind of candid conversations you’d expect from friends who just happen to be skincare pros. Recent episodes have tackled everything from facelifts and hormone balance to SPF myths and scalp health.
There’s warmth and openness to the show that mirrors the Medspa itself—no question is too embarrassing, no topic off limits. Jared Taylor, with JT VSUALS, the creative mind behind their podcast and social media, has helped the team reach nearly a million views and impressions, building a digital community that’s every bit as authentic as the one inside their doors.
Education isn’t just for clients. Kristin and her team are committed to in-house training, investing in apprenticeships that go beyond the basics. Mrs. Sheryl Harvey, a beloved mentor and seasoned esthetics instructor, helps with the apprenticeship program with unmatched expertise, passion, and humor. “We couldn’t let this gem stay retired long! Mrs. Harvey brings her unmatched expertise, passion, and humor to our esthetician apprentice program. From helping Lena become a confident waxer to guiding Maci through bookwork and board prep, she’s the mentor every aspiring esthetician dream of. We’re beyond lucky to have her warmth, wisdom, and wit lighting up our training space,” Kristin says. The process is rigorous, the paperwork daunting, but the results are clear: practitioners who are confident, compassionate, and deeply invested in their craft.
The staff’s credentials are impressive, but it’s their personalities that truly set them apart. Heather Taylor, RN, brings fifteen years of nursing experience and a gentle touch to her work with neurotoxins, dermal fillers, and vitamin injections. She’s known for her natural eye and her ability to put even the most needle-phobic clients at ease. Laura Jambrosic, who’s been with Amazingly Ageless from the start, specializes in paramedical tattooing and permanent makeup for eye-liner, brows and lips. Her passion shines brightly when she’s working with breast cancer survivors, helping them reclaim a sense of normalcy and beauty.

“WE SHARE THE SAME MISSION, TO HELP PEOPLE FEEL THEIR BEST.”

Then there’s Lena Dolbow, the go-to expert for intimate waxing, microneedling, and hydrafacials. She’s the one who can guide a nervous first timer through a Brazilian wax with humor and grace, or customize a facial that leaves skin glowing and spirits lifted. Shelby Ayres, a three-time Pitch KC winner, is obsessed with all things hair—especially scalp health. After witnessing more clients struggle with hair loss, she is returning to school to earn an Advanced Trichology degree, determined to help clients fall in love with their hair again, whether through a Japanese head spa deep cleanse or a HydraFacial Keravive treatment.

Anna Vandevelde, known for her meticulous facials and customized skincare plans, brings quiet confidence to every appointment. Georgia Davenport, newly licensed and joining the team in the Fall of 2025 but already beloved by the team, credits her growth to the mentorship she’s received from Lena and the rest of the team. Maci Taylor, the current apprentice, thrives in the Medspa’s nurturing environment, eager to learn and always ready with a smile.
At the front desk, during her summer break, Annette will greet clients with the same warmth and patience she brings to her work as a special education teacher for the blind. Kristin says, “Her positive energy is sure to add to the fun atmosphere we pride ourselves on.” Every member of the team, from the seasoned pros to the newest apprentice, shares a commitment to compassion and excellence.

Amazingly Ageless isn’t just about treatments—though their menu is extensive, from injectables and facials to waxing, scalp therapies, to eyelash extensions, and permanent makeup. The real magic happens in conversations before a single service begins. Every client’s story is heard, every concern validated, and every plan individualized. For those seeking advanced procedures outside the Medspa’s scope, Kristin and Erik have built a trusted network of providers and never hesitate to refer clients elsewhere. There’s no ego, no gatekeeping, just a relentless focus on what’s best for each person who walks through the door.
Collaboration is a cornerstone of their philosophy. Amazingly Ageless works closely with other Medspas, filling service gaps and returning clients when the time is right. They see no need for competition—just a shared mission to help people feel their best.
Clients return for the results, but they stay for the relationships. The atmosphere is relaxed, never stuffy. Laughter is common, as are honest discussions about aging, beauty, and self-care. There’s room for vulnerability, for celebration, for growth. Men and women, young and old, find common ground in the pursuit of feeling their best.

Erik & Kristin Sandborn

Kristin often reflects on the team she and Erik have built: “Our team is important to us. They are all uniquely talented and dedicated to the well-being of our clients. I could not ask for a better or more compassionate group of people.” That spirit radiates through every interaction, every treatment, and every episode of their podcast.

In a small Missouri town, Amazingly Ageless Medspa has created something rare—a sanctuary where expertise meets empathy, and where every client becomes part of the family. For those seeking more than surface-level change, for anyone who values knowledge without arrogance and results without rigidity, Amazingly Ageless Medspa offers something special: a place where real people, real conversations, and real results intersect.
