Nashville Welcomes Luxury Skincare: TIBA Hosts the First Ingrid Millet Institute in the U.S.
Known worldwide as the heart of country music and a culinary hot spot, Nashville is now leading the way as a skincare and health and wellness destination. The latest milestone? Parisian luxury skincare brand Ingrid Millet Paris has chosen Nashville as the home for its first U.S. institute in partnership with TIBA, a prestigious spa and wellness center that just opened its new location in Berry Hill. This groundbreaking collaboration signifies more than just a new chapter for TIBA; it positions Nashville as a hub for innovation in wellness and beauty.
The Partnership: A Fusion of Luxury and Innovation
Ingrid Millet Paris officially announced its partnership with TIBA during a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Nashville in November 2024. The event marked the opening of the Ingrid Millet U.S. Institute, a central training and education site for the renowned French skincare brand. TIBA, under the leadership of its visionary owner Nuhad Khoury, will now serve as the exclusive U.S. distributor for Ingrid Millet Paris products. This partnership strengthens TIBA's already stellar reputation as a destination for regenerative and restorative wellness treatments.
“We are delighted to be working closer with the Ingrid Millet team and to continue to showcase the luxury French product line to our well-loved clientele with an appreciation for great skincare,” said Khoury. “There is a certain synergy between TIBA’s mission and Ingrid Millet Paris offerings; we are very excited to share the brand's magic with the U.S. market, especially with our Nashville friends.”
A Legacy of Skincare Excellence
Ingrid Millet Paris has been a pioneer in skincare since its inception in 1959, most famously introducing caviar as a skincare ingredient in 1972 with its L’Extrait Bio-Marin product. The brand’s signature “Caviar Complex,” often called “Black Sea Gold,” is a powerhouse blend of nutrients that supports cell regeneration and delivers revitalizing effects.
Today, Ingrid Millet products are available in 45 countries, and the Nashville-based institute represents a new era for the brand’s expansion into the U.S. market.
For TIBA, this partnership further elevates its offerings. Guests can now access specialized skincare treatments and benefit from the expertise of highly trained aestheticians who have undergone advanced instruction in Ingrid Millet techniques.
More Than a Spa: TIBA’s Unique Service Menu
TIBA is not just a spa—it’s a luxury lifestyle experience. In addition to the wellness treatments it delivers, the facility is a DESSANGE PARIS Salon de Coiffure and hosts a curated shopping destination featuring high-end skincare, fragrances, makeup, accessories, and designer jewelry from around the world. The spa’s client list reads like a who’s who of entertainment icons, including Wynonna Judd, Martina McBride, Emmylou Harris, Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland, and the late Donna Summer.
TIBA’s treatments reflect Khoury’s 40 years of expertise in the industry, incorporating innovative technologies like the PureWave VEMI Bed, the PEMI Mat, and the Ballancer®Pro Lymphatic Drainage Compression Therapy system. These devices, alongside Ingrid Millet Paris’ premium products, position TIBA as a leader in wellness innovation.
Nashville’s Growing Wellness Scene
Nashville’s evolution into a wellness hub is no surprise. The city’s vibrant culture and diverse offerings have made it a destination for more than just music and food for several years now. TIBA’s collaboration with Ingrid Millet Paris exemplifies how the city has embraced advancements in the luxury health and beauty space.
Khoury’s vision aligns with Nashville’s dynamic growth, and the opening of the Ingrid Millet USA Institute places the city on the global wellness map. Visitors and locals alike can now experience the finest in French skincare while enjoying the warm hospitality Nashville is known for.
A Celebration of World-Class Wellness Experiences
The ribbon-cutting ceremony in November was not just a celebration of the partnership but also a testament to TIBA’s commitment to bringing world-class wellness experiences to Music City. The event highlighted the symbiosis between the two brands, united by their shared passion for innovation and excellence.
As the exclusive U.S. distributor of Ingrid Millet Paris., TIBA will continue introducing American clientele to the transformative power of caviar-based skincare and other high-end treatments.
