Beatriz (Bia) Hicks
NOVA Co-Founder / Senior Aesthetician
Beatriz "Bia" Hicks is the co-founder of a women's wellness clinic focused on helping women improve their quality of life and self-esteem. Originally from Brazil, Bia worked as a social worker helping children and teenagers who were homeless and in favelas, educating and re-educating them to have a better quality of life by working together with their families.
​
Bia has been working in the beauty industry for over 20 years with her passion for wellness originating from her Brazilian heritage. However, she felt aesthetics alone was not enough to truly empower women, so she teamed up with her business partner Aga to create a women's wellness clinic. Their mission is to improve women's mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing through a combination of aesthetic treatments, wellness programs, and a community of like-minded women.
Having known each other for two decades and each bringing complementary skills and experiences, Aga and Bia are the Yin and Yang behind NOVA Wellness Clinic.
