Amanda Hershman, APRN, FNP-BC

OUR PROVIDER

Founder of Skinday | Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner | Expert Injector & Skin Strategist

Amanda has always been captivated by the intersection of science, beauty, and confidence. With a deep love for aesthetics and a clear vision for redefining what it means to look and feel your best, she set out to create a modern, welcoming space where patients could achieve their aesthetic goals without pressure or pretense.

In 2019, Amanda co-founded GlowCoast, a boutique medical aesthetics studio rooted in Milford and the Connecticut shoreline, with the goal of offering natural results in a setting that felt warm, informed, and approachable. The practice quickly became a trusted name, leading Amanda to expand her expertise and partner with MMAC in 2020 to continue growing her patient base and aesthetic offerings.

Amanda holds a Bachelor of Arts from Mount Holyoke College (2014), where she first cultivated her passion for women’s wellness and communication. After working at Milford Vascular Institute, a specialized vein and artery clinic, Amanda pursued her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at St. Vincent’s College at Sacred Heart University, graduating in 2019. She later completed her Master of Science in Nursing as a Family Nurse Practitioner at Sacred Heart University in 2023.

Her path into aesthetics was both personal and professional. Having seen firsthand how impactful aesthetic treatments can be when done with intention and care, Amanda became passionate about not just enhancing appearance—but elevating lives. She brings this ethos into every treatment, offering customized plans that prioritize skin health, facial harmony, and long-term results.

With over six years of experience in aesthetic medicine, Amanda is certified in advanced neurotoxin and dermal filler techniques, facial balancing, and a range of non-invasive skin resurfacing treatments. Her previous roles as a Surgical Nurse, Hospice Night Nurse, and Laser Specialist at Connecticut Tattoo Removal have only deepened her clinical foundation and compassion-led approach to care.
