WITH JOHN WHEELER
Scaling with Soul: Trust, Grit, Growth

Dr. Ciara Dimou—also known as CiCi to her patients—has built more than just a med spa. She’s created a space where patients feel seen, confident, and empowered. As the founder of Vein Medi Spa and Vein Academy, she has blended medical expertise, entrepreneurship, and deep patient trust into a thriving, multi-faceted business. But her path into aesthetics wasn’t linear.

Beginning her career in internal medicine, Dr. Dimou never expected to find herself in the aesthetics industry. It wasn’t until a friend casually credited Botox for her glowing skin that curiosity turned into purpose. From that moment, Dr. Dimou went all in—learning the craft, working full-time hospital shifts, and building her business on nights and weekends. She started small, offering services out of her home, and grew by showing up consistently, educating her patients, and building trust.

Her approach to aesthetics was always about more than just injectables. She prioritized whole-patient care—connecting lifestyle, hormones, and mindset to the outcomes she helped her patients achieve. That philosophy continues to define her brand, from the treatments offered at Vein Medi Spa to the education delivered through Vein Academy.

As her business grew, so did her vision. Dr. Dimou expanded thoughtfully—adding her own skincare line, launching an academy, and eventually purchasing the property that houses her practice. She built systems that allow her to lead strategically, not just operate day-to-day, and she assembled a team that shares her values.

Today, Dr. Dimou is more than a practitioner—she’s a mentor, a medical leader, and an example of how mission-driven growth can scale without losing heart. Her journey reflects the power of consistent effort, patient-centered care, and never backing down from a challenge.
