Our Team

Hula Castellon | Founder, FNP, MSN

Arriving in America from Belarus in 2003 as a 21-year-old, Hula decided to build her American dream and become an inspiration for young women.

Hula graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and earned her Master of Science in Nursing from Florida International University, ranking in the top 10% of her class. She has diverse clinical experience, but her true passion lies in aesthetics.

Hula has worked with the top doctors in Beverly Hills, treating celebrities and bringing extensive experience and a keen aesthetic eye. She firmly believes in a synergistic approach to aesthetics and that aesthetic medicine is the future, rather than surgical practice.

Hula is deeply passionate about education and research. She has served as a sub-investigator in Galderma studies, is a faculty assistant at Allergan Medical Institute, and is widely recognized as an expert injector and PDO threads specialist/trainer in North America. Hula is a highly sought-after national trainer for PDOMAX, a leading thread manufacturer in the U.S. Her work with PDO threads has been featured in The Aesthetic Guide, Sunday Edit, and on Daily Mail TV, and she proudly states, “Threads are what I love doing the most.”

In aesthetic medicine, Hula’s greatest joy is the ability to positively impact people’s lives by rejuvenating their faces and restoring their confidence. Her philosophy is that everyone deserves to look and feel their best. With the patient’s interests in mind, Hula believes that good communication and trust between patient and practitioner lead to the best results.

As a resource and mentor for many local aesthetic professionals in the Los Angeles area, she has brought her dream of Uplifted to life — creating a safe space for women to feel good, look good, and inspire each other to dare to dream, all while working with good intentions in mind.
