FAQ's

It's my first time, I'm not sure what to book?

No problem! Every new client starts with the First Time Client Visit. This blocks off enough time for us to talk to you about your skin and your goals, image your face, and give you your first treatment!

What is your cancellation policy?

Please give us 48 hour notice of any cancellation. This allows us enough time to refill the slot. Any cancellations past the 48 hours or no shows will be charged the full price of the service booked. Vela reserves the right to block any clients who have canceled 3 consecutive appointments from booking services again in the future. We do not offer any refunds or exchanges for any services or products.

How should I get ready for my appointment?

Allow yourself adequate time to find a parking space so you can arrive on time. A bare face is preferred, but if you arrive with makeup on, we will gladly remove it for you. Please bring your current skincare products with you, and be prepared to leave with a new regimen.
