MEET THE EXPERT BEHIND KHODA
This is more than aesthetic medicine. It’s personal.
NURSE NAR KHODAVERDIAN
FOUNDER
“Khoda is what I built. Nurse Nar is who you come to see.”
I’m Nar Khodaverdian, a nurse injector, GLP-1 provider, aesthetic educator, and founder of Khoda Clinic.
I started my career as an ER nurse, then moved into IV nursing before finding my way into aesthetics. I learned the craft at someone else’s table, putting in the time, continuing my education, and developing the eye and approach that would eventually become my own.
Before Khoda, there was Bae & Beau Aesthetics. As the business grew, so did my vision for what I wanted to create.
Khoda Clinic is the next chapter.
I built Khoda for the patient who wants more than a treatment. She wants someone she can trust. Someone who will listen, educate her, and be honest about what she needs, what she doesn’t, and when the best recommendation is to do nothing at all.
My approach has never been about chasing trends or changing the way someone looks. I want to understand what’s bothering you and why. Then we create a plan that makes sense for your face, your lifestyle, and your long-term goals.
That same philosophy extends into wellness. Whether we’re talking about injectables, skin, GLP-1s, or wellness, the goal is to help you look and feel like yourself.
Why KHODA?
When I married into the name Khodaverdian, I had no idea it would one day become the name behind everything I built. Khoda means “God” in Farsi, and creating something worthy of that name felt like the only way forward.
I’m proudly Armenian, and the values I grew up with are woven into Khoda. Family matters. Hospitality matters. How you make someone feel matters.
I created this clinic for the woman who has spent years showing up for everyone else and is finally ready to make space for herself. Maybe you know you want to feel like yourself again, but you don’t know where to start or who to trust.
You don’t need to walk in knowing exactly what you need.
That’s my job.
To listen. To educate. To be honest. And to create a plan that feels right for you.
Because the best result is still you. Just better.

A Thoughtful Approach to Aesthetic Medicine
WE DON’T START WITH THE TREATMENT. WE START WITH YOU.
At Khoda, aesthetic medicine is never about simply treating the area that bothers you. We look at the bigger picture, including your anatomy, facial movement, volume changes, skin, and what may actually be behind your concern.
From there, we create a personalized treatment plan designed around your features, your goals, and where you are today.
Sometimes that means injectables. Sometimes it means skin treatments or collagen stimulation. And sometimes it means doing less.
The goal is never to change your face. It’s to understand it, enhance it, and help you look like yourself, just better.
