After completing medical school, Tonya began her residency training at Louisiana State University in New Orleans. After three years Dr. Boudreaux completed her Pediatrics Residency and was offered a Neonatology Intensive Care Fellowship position at Yale University.

Dr Tonya Boudreaux declined the offer to be closer to her husband, Paul, and take care of their newly born son, Thomas. Tonya began her clinical practice in Stamford, Connecticut at Stamford Pediatric Associates. Still wishing to continue her care of the acutely ill, she took on a position as a pediatric neonatal hospitalist at Stamford Hospital. Next, Tonya received a position in the pediatric emergency room at Womens and Childrens Hospital in Lafayette, Louisiana. Tonya cared for thousands of acutely ill children over the course of her pediatric career, saving many from certain death.

After the completion of her husband’s surgical training in Connecticut, the family moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to begin Paul’s fellowship in cosmetic surgery. It was here that Tonya grew increasingly interested in the field of facial rejuvenation. Spending time with Paul in the operative setting and observing some of his non-operative measures to help people regain their youth, Tonya began furthering her career in facial aesthetics.

She rapidly became proficient in facial injectables including JUVÉDERM, Restylane, and Perlane. Also, she was trained in the injection of Botox for the elimination of facial wrinkles. Tonya has attended many national meetings discussing advancements in facial rejuvenation and continues to increase her knowledge base to help provide her patients with the most cutting edge techniques.
