Tera Peterson
Founder
- Description
- Tera Peterson is the co-founder of NuFACE®, the pioneer of at-home microcurrent and the first FDA-cleared handheld microcurrent device for facial stimulation. She helped take microcurrent from the treatment room to a must-have beauty ritual, co-inventing the award-winning NuFACE Trinity® and leading the brand’s expansion into a global beauty phenomenon. NuFACE has become a cultural staple, with a highly engaged digital community, millions of devices sold worldwide, and a loyal following that spans beauty editors, aestheticians, and celebrities alike. The brand is a red-carpet favorite—regularly used and endorsed by icons such as Kate Hudson, Hailey Bieber, Jennifer Aniston, Bella Hadid, Miranda Kerr, and Molly Sims—and was named the #1 selling skincare tool brand by Circana in 2023. Peterson is also the founder of SKIN\SET, a modern, membership-based facial studio redefining professional skincare through efficient, results-driven treatments. Built on the belief that consistency and expert-led care outperform trends, SKIN\SET delivers 45-minute, customized facials designed to fit seamlessly into real life—without sacrificing results. The brand blends clinical-grade technology, concierge-level service, and a community-first model to set a new standard for accessible luxury skincare. Peterson’s career began in sales after earning a B.B.A. in Business Administration from the University of San Diego, followed by training as a licensed aesthetician specializing in professional microcurrent—the “noninvasive facial lift.” This rare combination of clinical expertise, brand vision, and entrepreneurial leadership continues to define her work as a founder and innovator shaping the future of skincare.
