Lead Client Coordinator

CSLC Chelsea

Mandy Pomo is our Front Office Manager in our Chelsea Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center | RegenCen location.

She lives in Dexter and graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a BS in Psychology.

Mandy has worked in a few different medical offices throughout her career and Aesthetics is by far her favorite.

She has been a small business owner for 7 years in her hometown and chose to close brick and mortar operations and do markets with the jewelry that she designs and creates. That led her to Chelsea Laser & Aesthetics as the Office Manager, now Cosmetic Skin & Laser Center.

Mandy enjoys aesthetics because we get the chance to see the happiness it provides patients. She finds the functional medicine side of RegenCen facinating and such a powerful addition to our aesthetic services.

In her free time, she enjoys creating jewelry for her business, Boxwood Collective, watching my son playing football and baseball on his high school teams, and spending time with her husband, daughter, son and friends.

Mandy is dedicated, innovative, and a hard worker along with being an amazing friendly face to see when you enter our Chelsea office. We're so grateful to have her on our team.
