ALETA SLOAN, PA-C
Aleta Sloan, PA-C, LSO, has built a distinguished career over her three decades in medicine, where she has cultivated a deep understanding of various medical disciplines. Her extensive experience in Cardiology, Emergency Medicine, and Internal Medicine allows her to approach her aesthetic patients with a comprehensive perspective, ensuring that all aspects of health are considered in her treatments.
She is the owner and founder of United Medical And Aesthetics who is proud to have been the first PA to have privileges in Eastern North Carolina in 1991 after graduating at age 22 from one of the original PA schools in Baltimore, Maryland. She always wanted to be in the field of Dermatology, but in the early 90’s there were no Dermatology practices in New Bern, North Carolina.
Aleta’s passion for aesthetics shines through in her approach to skin treatments, where she emphasizes enhancing natural beauty rather than creating an overdone look. This philosophy is rooted in her commitment to providing results that not only meet, but exceed patient expectations while maintaining a focus on safety and long-term satisfaction.

Melissa Kage
AESTHETICIAN/LASER TECHNICIAN
I relocated to North Carolina in 2002 on military orders to USCG Station Fort Macon and began my professional journey in aesthetics through cosmetology in 2006. After five years in practice, I earned my cosmetology and esthetic teaching license and briefly entered education. During this time, exposure to medical aesthetics and laser technology solidified my career direction, and by 2012 I identified my professional focus as advanced skin correction, laser modalities, and injectable-adjacent patient care.
Early in my career, I managed a medical spa in New Bern, working extensively with wellness-based technologies including NIR and FIR saunas, lymphatic vibration therapy, LED light therapy, and inflammation-focused treatments. Seeking advanced laser education and stronger certification, I relocated to Texas and completed licensure through the National Laser Institute, then joined a full-service medical spa offering injectables, hormone replacement, IV therapy, body sculpting, and advanced laser treatments.
In late 2017, I returned permanently to the North Carolina coast and joined a medical spa, skin care, and laser center, where I worked for seven and a half years. During this time, I earned ZO Skin Health Specialist and Expert recognition, Alastin certification, and CoolSculpting Master Certification.
My treatment philosophy is focused, honest, and results-driven. I prioritize clear communication, realistic expectations, and long-term skin health over unnecessary treatments. Above all, I am deeply committed to patient safety, education, and transformative outcomes. I am direct yet compassionate, confident in declining treatments that are not appropriate, and dedicated to building trust and long-term patient relationships. I am eager to continue expanding my expertise in regenerative and restorative aesthetics while collaborating with a skilled team such as UM&A.
