About Chrysalis Aesthetics

Meet Stephanie

Owner and Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner (she/her)

Stephanie is a nurse practitioner with two decades of experience in healthcare. Starting out as a medical assistant to registered nurse to nurse practitioner, she has dedicated her life to so many different healing journeys in various settings.

Originally from Texas, the Borjas family made a big move to the portal that is Portland. Here in Portland, Stephanie found her passion for helping patients with their self-expression. She decided to combine her love of empowering her patients to choose what beauty means to them with her dedication to the craft of injectables to manifest Chrysalis Aesthetics.

Outside of this transformative space, she spends her time exploring the PNW with her partner Jesse and their fur babies- Jack & Ava. From enjoying all of the incredible food & breathtaking views Oregon has to offer, there is not a moment where Stephanie doesn’t soak it all in without gratitude. She believes the universe makes no accidents & that every step has led her to this moment. Stephanie loves all things mystical & witchy, pulling tarot cards, learning astrology, reading and journaling in her mental health room. Don’t be surprised if she infuses a little magic into your time in her space.

Mission and Values

My mission is to empower individuals—especially those in marginalized communities, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ folks—to embrace their unique beauty and feel their best. As someone with lived experience as a BIPOC individual from an immigrant family and a proud member of the LGBTQ community, I deeply understand the importance of creating a space where everyone feels seen, valued, and uplifted. Through intentional, healing care and accessible pricing, I provide a nurturing space where your transformation is honored. I believe in deconstructing traditional beauty standards, allowing you to define beauty on your own terms.

Every treatment is rooted in inclusivity, self-empowerment, and a deep commitment to your well-being.
