Folasade Oyefeso-Ladipo MSN, RN, FNP-s

Meet Folasade Nadia Olayiwola Ladipo-Oyefeso, also known as Nurse Fola, the CEO, and founder of Gizel Atlanta. While originally from Los Angeles, California, Fola’s professional journey and expertise are what set her apart in the aesthetics field, particularly in Atlanta. Her mother is from Los Angeles, and her father hails from Lagos, Nigeria, but Fola’s focus is on her craft and values, not just her background. After relocating to Atlanta in her early teens, she earned nursing degrees from Georgia State University and the University of West Georgia.
 
Fola’s dedication to the field goes far beyond being a licensed registered nurse, she is currently advancing her education as a Family Nurse Practitioner. With over a decade of experience in emergency medicine and critical care, she has dedicated herself to positively impacting the lives of her patients, both in and out of the aesthetics industry.

What truly differentiates Fola in the crowded Atlanta Medspa scene is her specialized training and dedication to safe treatments for all skin types, particularly skin of color. Fola has pursued advanced aesthetic education both in the UK and across the US, continuously evolving her practice by staying informed on the latest innovations in the industry. Her international training, including expertise in skin correction and facial restorative aesthetic injections, reflects her deep commitment to personalization, safety, and effectiveness in aesthetic care. Fola’s approach to aesthetics is not only artistic but deeply rooted in science, making her uniquely equipped to provide cutting-edge, physician-trained care.

In addition to her work at Gizel Atlanta, Fola is passionate about educating other practitioners in the industry. She regularly engages in speaking events and is committed to sharing her expertise on safely treating diverse skin types, particularly emphasizing the importance of prioritizing safety in the evolving field of aesthetics. As an ambassador for the Aerolase laser, she champions its use for safe, effective treatments for skin of color.

Fola’s approach to aesthetics goes beyond skin deep. Drawing from her years as a bedside nurse, she takes a comprehensive approach, understanding that skin health is a reflection of overall well-being. She empowers her guests through education and personalized treatment plans, carefully crafted to meet each guest’s unique needs, helping them feel comfortable and confident in their own skin.

But for Fola, it’s not just about what happens in the treatment room. Her business is built around core values—integrity, care, and authenticity—that shape everything she does. “It’s not so much about what we do in the office,” Fola explains, “but about the kind of person I am and the values that are at the foundation of my practice. We don’t just care about what you look like; we care about your life and livelihood. The changes we make go much deeper than the surface.” Fola believes that the true power of skincare transformations lies in the confidence they inspire, helping her guests navigate the world with self-assurance and empowerment.

At Gizel Atlanta, Fola’s continuous pursuit of knowledge ensures that her guests benefit from the latest and most innovative treatments, products, and technologies. With her extensive experience, training by physicians, and passion for aesthetics, Fola provides a level of care that her guests can trust, delivering safe, high-quality, and personalized results.
