  • Daniela "Dani" Velasco Bade

    ESTHETICIAN/TEAM MEMBER

    “My passion for the health and beauty industry led me to attain my aesthetics license in 2012. I spent the last decade, devoting myself to working with lasers and skincare treatments at medical spas in the northern Virginia area. Throughout the years, I have specialized in laser treatments, such as: tattoo removal, hair reduction, carbon laser facials, erbium, IPL, microneedling, and vascular reduction. I’ve also stepped into the world of PMU, with my main focus being paramedical tattooing. Working on different skin types, ages, and contraindications, is when one realizes that they never stop learning. I indulge by staying current on the latest modalities, trending services, and product lines. It’s my strong belief that leadership starts with building trust and providing both technical skills and emotional support to inspire confidence in each individual. I strive to inspire others and take pride in the relationships I cultivate with both students and clients.”
