About Us

SkinTheoryRx is a results-oriented medical aesthetic studio. Using state of the art skincare and treatments, we are dedicated to helping you achieve your skin goals. Our story began in Los Angeles in 2006 with a 2200 square foot building and a dream. Our founder, Tisha O’Dowd, opened Abbracci Medspa and it soon became (and continues to be) the premier medical spa in the South Bay. After selling her business to 3 doctors and moving to Tennessee in 2015, she took a break to raise her 3 girls and establish herself in her new home. 

Opened in the fall of 2020, SkinTheoryRx, is something near and dear to Tisha’s heart. She even considers it a part of her family. With a heart that loves to serve others, a dedicated staff and expert providers, we hope to bring a much needed medical aesthetic presence to downtown Franklin and serve you well.

Our Philosophy

At our core, we believe skincare is not one size fits all. We’re dedicated to providing personalized care, tailoring options to your skin’s unique needs and your goals.

Client Testimonials

  • I was referred to Tisha by 4 different people who all said she was a magician with skin and after visiting her, I couldn't agree more! After seeing almost a dozen different estheticians and dermatologists throughout Nashville, she's the only one who genuinely cared about helping and takes her time. After a year of severe acne and still being on Accutane, Tisha immediately created a plan to restore my skin from all the harsh medications and products other doctors prescribed me. I couldn't recommend them more!

  • Best facial!! Just had my first facial at SkinTheoryRX! Lacey was FANTASTIC, I literally dozed off and wondered if that was normal OR acceptable! Lacey said it is a high compliment when that happens! I have lived in Franklin for 30 years, and have had many great facial experiences in Franklin and Nashville over the years. But this was truly one of THE BEST I’ve ever had. Not going to lie, I’m aging! As Lacey sweetly said, “Who isn’t?!” I was definitely ready to change up my skin care regime, and take some steps to treat my aging skin with more respect! So excited about the routine Lacey wrote out for me and some really amazing new products! Already booked a return service in six weeks.

  • I have seen Tisha at Skintheory Rx for several years. We’ve done all sorts of facials and peels, and Tisha is wonderful! She is thorough with the services and my skin is always glowing after. She listens to skin concerns and suggests a regimen. Highly recommend Tisha and Skintheory!
