Why Clients Trust Elite
You want to look in the mirror and love what you see — not just today, but for years to come. Since 2007, we have helped clients in Spring, The Woodlands, and beyond care for their skin with confidence and real results. Our providers use research-backed treatments and powerful medical-grade technology to help you age well, smooth wrinkles, and refresh your skin. Whether you’re starting small or ready for a full transformation, we’ll walk with you every step of the way.
Your Skin Care Journey Starts Here
This isn’t your mother’s skin care plan — it’s yours. We believe aging well is about confidence, self-care, and choosing treatments that align with your goals. We start by listening. Then we create a personalized plan just for you. Our goal is to guide you through every phase of your skincare journey — with honesty, empathy, and results you’ll love. You don’t have to figure this out alone. We’re here to help you love the skin you're in.
Helping You Feel Good in Your Skin
At Elite, we exist to help people in Spring, The Woodlands, and beyond shine their inner beauty outward with confidence—and to create lasting relationships with every person we serve. We believe in aging well, loving your reflection, and taking care of yourself—because you’re worth it. What's important to us? Intentional care and treatments that support your vision—not someone else’s. Let’s create a plan that’s all about you. Give us a year, and we'll give you back ten.
LEADERS WHO PUT YOU FIRST
Tonya Cariker - Founder, Owner
Tonya began her career as a Medical Aesthetician when she saw first-hand the difference cosmetic skin treatments had on her skin. Working under her mentor, Dr. Christine Cheng, she understood the need for skin care treatments that helped clients’ overall well-being and self-esteem. She desired to develop a business that provided professional services and made these services affordable to the average person. The idea of helping people improve their self-esteem, feel better, become healthier, and love themselves led her and Dr. Cheng to create Elite Medical Skin and Laser Center in 2007. Since then, Elite has doubled in size from its first location, continuing to service clients in The Woodlands and surrounding areas with top-of-the-line treatments and client services.
While away from Elite, Tonya enjoys time with her husband, their two daughters, and their families. Family is everything to Tonya, so it is essential that every client feel like they are a part of the Elite Family.
Jeanne Southern - Medical Director for Cosmetic Procedures
Dr. Southern earned her M.D. in 1985 from Baylor College of Medicine, worked as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Cell Biology, and was the Chairman of the Anatomy Department at Texas Chiropractic College. She has been in full-time practice since 1998 and enjoys helping people feel better about their appearance. She currently injects, neurotoxins, fillers, and fat reduction and offers Nova Threads (PDO threads for lifting and collagen stimulation). Dr. Southern has been injecting at Elite since 2019.
Charles White - Medical Director for Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Doctor Charles White has been practicing Obstetrics and Gynecology since 1974. He brings a wealth of knowledge to Elite about women’s healthcare and hormone needs. Dr. White has practiced medicine in Kansas, Montgomery County, Dallas, Abilene, and Colorado. Before coming to Elite, he worked at a private practice in Montgomery County from 1977-2008 and has been an OB/GYN hospitalist for 16 years. He decided to add hormone replacement therapy to his expertise because of the limited opportunities for men and women and the new and improved treatment opportunities to take care of hormonal issues.
