Claudia Price is one of the select group of certified nurses in cosmetic surgery (Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialists – CANS) in Canada. She works closely with three plastic surgeons, as well as technicians specializing in lasers and other advanced aesthetic technologies.

With many years of experience in medical aesthetic injections, Claudia stands out for her gentle, attentive, and resolutely conservative approach, which has allowed her to build a loyal and growing clientele.

Before specializing in the field of aesthetic medicine, Claudia obtained her medical degree from Zulia University in her native Venezuela. After a few years of medical practice, she decided to change scenery—and climate—and settle in Montreal. There, she learned French and continued her training by earning her nursing degree.

Her career quickly took off: she became Head Nurse of the Plastic and Vascular Surgery Operating Room at Santa Cabrini Hospital, as well as Head Nurse at Dr. Yves St. Laurent’s Aesthetic and Plastic Clinic.

In 2013, she founded her own clinic, Epiderme Laser, of which she is President. With over 20 years of experience in surgery and aesthetics, she now shares her expertise by training doctors and nurses in natural and harmonious injection techniques.

Convinced that continuing education is essential to success, Claudia regularly participates in renowned national and international conferences.
