Christie Prendergast, MD, is a double-board certified plastic surgeon in Los Angeles and founder of the Beauty Matrix™, a personalized treatment strategy that utilizes technology, biological data and professional expertise to optimize patient outcomes. Throughout her years of practice, Dr. Prendergast observed that standardized approaches to aesthetics were lacking innovation, inclusivity, as well as often disregarding the patient experience and personal goals.

Drawing from evidence-based practices across both traditional and holistic medicine, nutrition, lifestyle and genetics, she developed a multi-modal approach that is results-oriented and prioritizes skin health optimization, maintenance and damage prevention to minimize or delay the need for drastic interventions wherever possible.

By looking at the full picture, Dr. Prendergast addresses beauty from both inside and out with the patient experiencing a highly individualized, productive and more pleasant treatment journey along the way.
