Marissa Russo is a board-certified nurse practitioner and the founder of Skin Script CLT. Originally from Upstate New York, she relocated to the Charlotte area in 2011. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and her Master’s degree from the University of North Carolina Wilmington. Marissa maintains her board certification through the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.

With over 12 years of medical experience, Marissa began her career in surgical trauma critical care, where she developed a strong clinical foundation and attention to detail. Driven by a longstanding passion for aesthetics, she transitioned into the aesthetic industry in 2020, blending her medical expertise with an artistic approach to patient care.

Marissa always envisioned building something of her own, and in 2025, she brought that vision to life by founding Skin Script CLT. Her practice is rooted in delivering natural, refined results while prioritizing patient education, safety, and individualized treatment plans.

Outside of the office, Marissa enjoys spending time with her daughter, Avery, who inspires her daily and her finace.
