Founder + Aesthetic Provider
Meet Shania Sheikh-Carrasco, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, MEP-C
Shania Sheikh-Carrasco is the Founder of AMANI Aesthetics, a Family Nurse Practitioner, and advanced aesthetic provider with a passion for creating natural, intentional results through aesthetic medicine, skin health, and wellness.
What began in a 90-square-foot treatment room has grown into a comprehensive aesthetics and wellness practice serving Southeast New Mexico. Throughout AMANI’s growth, Shania’s vision has remained the same: to bring advanced treatments, technology, education, and an elevated level of care to the rural community she proudly calls home.
Shania has dedicated years to advanced aesthetic education and hands-on training alongside respected providers and industry leaders across the country. Her approach to aesthetics focuses on full-face assessment, facial balance, skin health, and subtle enhancement rather than chasing individual features or trends. She believes the best aesthetic work should leave patients looking refreshed, balanced, and unmistakably like themselves.
As her practice has evolved, so has her passion for treating the patient beyond aesthetics. Shania has expanded AMANI into wellness, hormone optimization, peptide therapy, medical weight management, and advanced skin health, creating a more comprehensive approach to helping patients look, feel, and function at their best.
Her own experience with adult acne has also shaped the way she approaches skin health. Understanding firsthand how deeply skin concerns can affect confidence inspired her to expand AMANI’s acne and corrective skin programs and provide patients with the education, consistency, and individualized support she felt was missing in her own journey.
Shania earned her nursing education through New Mexico State University, her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Chamberlain University, and her Master of Science in Nursing from South College, becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner. She continues to invest heavily in advanced education as aesthetic and wellness medicine evolve.
Shania’s Favorite AMANI Treatment: Full face and neck Daxxify® for its ability to create a refreshed, natural appearance while providing long-lasting neuromodulator results for many patients.
Shania’s Favorite Skincare Product at AMANI: Quite literally everything but if I had to have one ride or die… ColoreScience Flex SPF, always. Daily broad-spectrum sun protection remains one of the most important foundations for protecting skin health and preserving the investment patients make in professional skincare and aesthetic treatments.
Outside of AMANI, Shania enjoys spending time with her husband and children. She loves traveling abroad and to the cities, discovering new restaurants and luxury spas, interior design/decor, creating content through fashion and beauty, and finding inspiration she can bring back to the AMANI experience for her patients.
For Shania, AMANI has never been about changing the way someone looks. It is about giving patients the tools, education, and care to become the most confident version of themselves, inside and out.
