Today, we’d like to introduce you to Kelly Bailey. She shared her story with us below:
Could you please provide an overview of the company and share a little about you and why you started this unique business?
DRVN Aesthetics, established in 2023, is committed to delivering a personalized, luxurious, educational skincare experience. With a foundation in Aveda education and over a decade of experience in the skincare and wellness industry, I bring expertise as a Licensed Aesthetician, Certified Laser Technician, and Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach. My expertise extends across diverse spa settings, where I harmoniously blend relaxation techniques like aromatherapy and lymphatic drainage massage with medically driven aesthetic treatments.
My dedication to holistic wellness underscores a comprehensive approach to skincare and overall well-being. With extensive training in overall health and wellness and a wide array of skin care treatments, ranging from facials, microneedling, and sculptural facelifting massage to chemical peels and more, I ensure that my clients receive unparalleled care. This blend of expertise allows me to address skin concerns and promote holistic wellness, leaving clients feeling rejuvenated inside and out.
The concept of DRVN Aesthetics came to life after watching a YouTube video featuring a mobile barber’s van conversion. My husband and I realized the potential for innovation in the aesthetics industry and purchased a Mercedes van. For over two and a half years, we worked on transforming it into a mobile oasis of relaxation, focusing on providing results-driven services.
Today, DRVN Aesthetics provides personalized skincare services to clients in the Woodlands metropolitan area and beyond. My treatments are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual, allowing me to incorporate my passion and commitment to skincare into every session. My goal is to foster trustworthy relationships with each client and create a significant impact on the aesthetic and wellness industry. With the launch of my business, I am excited to bring my expertise and passion to the community.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Beginning to launch a mobile spa business during the pandemic demanded resilience and adaptability. Despite full-time jobs, my husband and I dedicated every spare moment to realizing our vision. We faced challenges like supply chain disruptions and time constraints while assembling the Mercedes med spa van. Yet, our perseverance prevailed, and today, I proudly lead the business as a female entrepreneur, a testament to our unwavering commitment and collaborative effort.
Introducing a unique business concept in a competitive market presented its own set of challenges, especially as the sole provider of such mobile services in my area. However, I’ve begun to overcome these initial obstacles through strategic networking, active engagement on social media, and leveraging word-of-mouth referrals. Within just eleven months of operation, DRVN Aesthetics is gaining momentum, earning local and online recognition for its innovative approach and unwavering commitment to excellence.
We’ve been impressed with DRVN Aesthetics, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about DRVN and what sets it apart from others in the industry?
DRVN Aesthetics pioneers a new era in aesthetic care, transcending traditional norms to deliver unparalleled convenience and personalized service. Operating as a mobile spa, I, as a seasoned Medical Aesthetician, bring top-tier treatments directly to clients’ doorsteps, breaking free from brick-and-mortar limitations.
At the core of DRVN Aesthetics lies a fully customized Mercedes Sprinter van, meticulously designed to offer a luxurious spa experience on wheels. This innovative approach eliminates commuting hassles while providing a comprehensive range of services, from facials, sculptural facelifting massage, microneedling, chemical peels, and more, within the comfort of my mobile sanctuary.
In addition to exceptional treatments, DRVN Aesthetics prioritizes addressing many skincare concerns, including acne, hyperpigmentation, rosacea, and mature skin. My expertise is evident in my comprehensive understanding of skin conditions and my skillful and gentle extraction techniques, rejuvenating massages, and personalized approach to each client’s needs.
What truly distinguishes DRVN Aesthetics is its collaborative ethos. I view each client as a partner in their skincare journey, fostering teamwork and shared goals. By emphasizing at-home skincare routines, I empower clients to take charge of their skin health, guiding them toward their desired outcomes. I enjoy educating my clients about their skin and providing knowledge that empowers them to make informed decisions.
Central to the DRVN brand is a philosophy of positivity and kindness, which is evident in every interaction. By championing a holistic approach to skincare and well-being, DRVN Aesthetics inspires clients to both look and feel their best.
In essence, DRVN Aesthetics embodies innovation, expertise, and compassion. It pushes the boundaries of mobile aesthetics while promoting a culture of positivity and self-care.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
As an Aesthetician and entrepreneur, I measure success beyond financial milestones. It’s about the positive impact I create in my clients’ lives, providing a sanctuary where they feel empowered and confident.
To me, success is witnessing the joy on a client’s face as they admire their reflection, feeling beautiful and self-assured. It’s about forging meaningful connections, understanding individual needs, and delivering personalized care that boosts self-esteem.
Moreover, success manifests in the trust and loyalty my clients place in me, knowing I’m committed to helping them look and feel their best. It involves continuous growth, staying abreast of industry trends, and striving for excellence in every aspect of my practice.
Ultimately, success as an Aesthetician transcends surface-level changes; it’s about nurturing inner confidence and self-love in each individual I serve.
