ABOUT US
Our Culture of Teamwork
Husband and wife team, Dr. Eric Tuggle—an oral, maxillofacial, and cosmetic facial surgeon—and Tonya Tuggle, a certified nurse practitioner, opened Sandia Skin + Face Med Spa in 2018 after operating Sandia Oral & Cosmetic Facial Surgery since 2009. The med spa has been synergistic with facial surgery and offers a seamless team to assist patients in maximizing aesthetic outcomes.
Often, each patient’s unique needs require a multiple-modality approach. Whether it’s laser resurfacing, injectables such as neurotoxins and fillers, medical weight loss, or cosmetic facial surgery, we have the ability to help patients enhance their aesthetic results by offering both non-invasive and invasive treatment options.
As a company, we enjoy working together to meet patient goals. We take pleasure in helping others and using our experience, training, and expertise in aesthetic medicine. We seek to hire and train the best medical team, aestheticians, and support staff to allow our patients to feel their value and to experience friendly, expert service. Our culture is cultivated by celebrating excellent patient care and emphasizing a teamwork approach.
