Meet Stephanie

Individualized care, layered for luminosity, refined through precision.

Stephanie is both a licensed esthetician and an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse. Velatura was founded on the philosophy that skin longevity and aesthetic medicine are symbiotic and imperative for lasting results.

With 14 years of experience as a licensed esthetician and 5 years of experience specializing in injectables, Stephanie brings a unique perspective that bridges the worlds of skin health and aesthetic medicine. Her approach is rooted in a deep understanding of facial anatomy, skin health, and the subtle artistry of creating balanced, natural-looking results.

Her approach is intentional, and dedicated to creating a collaborative relationship with every patient.

With over 14 years in the aesthetics industry, Stephanie views skin as an organ and believes healthy, resilient skin is the foundation of every aesthetic treatment. Throughout her career, she has worked in renowned spas, including Exhale®, and has thoughtfully researched, tested, and hand-selected professional skincare lines for her own practice. She is proud to partner with Danucera and Auteur, bringing carefully curated, exclusive skincare to complement and elevate her patients’ results. Her commitment to advanced education has led her to train with respected educators and master injectors, including Arthur Swift, Benji Dhillon, Tom van Eijk, cadaver-based anatomy training, and internationally with Julie Horne in Switzerland. She continues to refine her technique and deepen her expertise in facial anatomy, skin health, and the art of subtle, natural-looking results, with upcoming training alongside Zack Ally.
