VELA

Unmatched experience! This woman owned and run business is truly a haven and I am so impressed by the quality, comfort, and expertise of their craft! I wanted to invest in my skin for the first time and the results within two months were staggering! They break down your particular skin barrier and tailor make the process to fit your needs. Sarah is just the best. Supportive and kind, she truly listens to what you’re seeking and has given me gentle care that has honestly revolutionized my extremely, extremely sensitive skin. Everyone greets you like an old friend, all the products are high quality and clean and I feel at home. They scan your skin and show you areas of interest and then after active treatments, show you an update of your progress! It’s the best thing I have done for myself in a long time. Run don’t walk if you’re ready to feel confident. Love my girls! Thank you, Vela!

I had a great experience at Vela! The staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. I did the Skinpen microneedling treatment and had many questions for Sarah. She answered them all with ease and made me feel comfortable with the treatment. She was thorough with talking me through aftercare and had some great recommendations for me to achieve my skin care goals. I’m looking forward to my next appointment with Sarah!

I’ve seen Sofia for multiple skincare treatments at Vela, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and truly customizes each treatment to what my skin needs in that moment. I especially loved my series of Aerolase NeoElite laser treatments for improving my skin tone and fading pigmentation and sun spots. I noticed a visible difference in brightness and clarity of my skin. Every appointment feels relaxing but results-driven, and I always leave with glowing, healthier-looking skin. If you’re looking for a skilled aesthetician for acne, pigmentation, or overall skin health, Sofia is amazing.

What a beautiful retreat this place is! I was walking around town and stopped in because it just seemed so inviting! The lovely Lauren greeted us at the door and showed us around, explaining all the services that were available and could run through every product sold. I wasn't getting a service but ended up buying an eye cream that Lauren sold me on! I was able to view the treatment rooms and if we were spending more time in the area, a service here would definitely be on my list! They have everything from facials to peels and acne treatments, even some Botox mid-day specials! The city is so beautiful and welcoming, we will definitely be back and Vela will be a stop I'll be making!

I cannot say enough about Elizabeth and Vela. I’ve always had pretty clear skin, minus some minor hormonal breakouts in my early thirties that felt manageable in hindsight. But after starting tretinoin, my skin spiraled into an inflamed, painful nightmare in less than a month. I didn’t recognize my face. I didn’t feel like myself. Enter Elizabeth 💞✨💞✨💞 In under two months, she has helped me rebuild my skin and, honestly, my confidence. My inflammation is calming, my breakouts are healing, and I finally feel like me again. I’m genuinely excited for spring and a serious glow up because I know my skin is on the right path. Elizabeth is pure joy, light, compassionate warmth, and infinite skincare knowledge. She listens. She personalizes. She explains the why behind everything. She treats your skin like it matters deeply because it does. And as someone who uses a mobility scooter, I have to add this: all of the treatment rooms are upstairs, but Elizabeth went above and beyond to make sure I had the exact same luxurious experience as every other client, without the pesky staircase becoming a barrier. She didn’t make it awkward. She made it seamless. That level of thoughtfulness means everything. She is the acne whisperer of Charlotte, and I trust her 100 percent with my skincare needs. If you are battling acne and want real results with someone who truly cares, take a trip to Vela and meet Elizabeth and her incredible team. Your skin will thank you. 💞✨🫶
