Going to the dentist can be an anxiety-provoking experience, while going to a spa has the totally opposite feel. That’s why Dr. Elizabeth Kossak founded a wellness-centered practice that combines state-of-the-art dental care with the soothing atmosphere of a spa.
Haven Dental Spa and Wellness Medspa opened in September 2025 in Grosse Pointe Woods. During dental procedures, patients may be offered paraffin hand wax treatments, cozy blankets, under-eye patches, and other calming amenities to help them feel more comfortable. “We want people to feel relaxed and not like they’re at a stuffy dental appointment,” says Dr. Kossak.
Afterwards, patients can easily go from their dental treatments to the connected med spa. Her friend, Courtney Nason, is a nurse practitioner and co-owner of the med spa. “Courtney is amazing and so knowledgeable, and since we’re both moms of three boys, we know how busy life gets. We really want to support others who are juggling a lot, too.”
Courtney offers many services from a whole-body perspective, including wellness injections that include an amino blend, B12, Glutathione, a triple immunity booster, and zinc. “These can really help support overall health,” says Dr. Kossak.
Patients can receive facial fillers, SkinPen® microneedling, neuromodulator treatments, and much more. Dr. Kossak specializes in facial injections that improve the smile or the function of the mouth muscles, such as lip fillers for aesthetics or neurotoxin (Dysport® or Xeomin®) for TMJ discomfort.
She loves how she and Courtney, as well as the dental and spa services, complement each other for overall health. While neuromodulators like Dysport® can help patients look better, they can also help those who clench and grind their teeth. “They can receive tox injections in their jaw muscles, masseter muscles and temporalis muscles to help with that,” she says.
On the aesthetic side, a great smile is key, but so is the rest of the face when it comes to feeling beautiful and happy. “If we harmonize those, it makes a huge difference in people's lives and in their confidence,” says Dr. Kossak. “People feel more confident when they look better. Personally, when I look refreshed, I feel more refreshed. I think that it’s super important for overall mental health.”
Both women are passionate about skincare and its role in overall health. “We offer VAMP™, which is a mixture of vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and PDRN – it is a topical that we place on after microneedling,” says Dr. Kossak. “We also have Epicutis® products, an all-natural skincare line. It's amazing for anybody who has easily irritated skin and wants to use a natural product.”
Haven welcomes men, women and children of all ages. “I feel like women are the leaders in their households, so usually they come in first, and then they bring their husbands and kids. It's nice to form that initial connection, and then that spreads to the rest of the family, who soon realize how much they love us too.”
She adds, “I've always been in love with dentistry. It's the best job in the world because I get to combine artistry with meeting new people, making them feel comfortable and look great. This is our passion, and Courtney and I are so lucky to be able to do this.”
