Ashley Aldridge

Ashley Aldridge is a board-certified Physician Assistant with over 15 years of experience in cosmetic dermatology, anti-aging medicine, and aesthetic injectables. She launched her career in 2010 in the San Francisco Bay Area, training under a Stanford-affiliated dermatologist, Dr. Marie Jhin, who was an early adopter of nonsurgical injectable treatments. It was there that Ashley developed the precise, anatomy-driven approach to facial rejuvenation that has defined her work ever since. She currently practices at Boyd Beauty, one of Michigan's most recognized aesthetic practices, with locations in Birmingham, Ann Arbor, and downtown Detroit.

Ashley is a nationally recognized trainer for both Allergan and Galderma, two of the largest names in cosmetic injectables. In that role, she travels the country educating other medical professionals on proper and safe injection techniques, working alongside some of the top leaders in the aesthetic industry. Her expertise spans the full range of cosmetic injectables, including neurotoxins like Botox and Dysport, dermal fillers from the Juvederm and Restylane families, and biostimulatory treatments like Sculptra, which she has cited as her favorite treatment to both give and receive. Her extensive background in dermatology gives her a perspective that extends beyond injectables alone; she emphasizes that great skin is the foundation for great injectable results.

Patients consistently describe Ashley's work as natural, balanced, and refined. She is known for taking her time during consultations, listening carefully to what each patient wants, and building treatment plans that serve long-term goals rather than short-term trends. Her colleagues at Boyd Beauty credit her with raising the standard of care across the practice, and Dr. Charles Boyd, the practice's founder, has described her approach as one of unmatched precision and thoughtfulness. She is, in the truest sense, both an educator and an artist.
