Washington D.C.’s first Black-owned plastic surgery studio, Peel haus, opens its doors with Black women in charge.

Peel Haus Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery is the newest Black- and woman-owned venture to hit Washington, D.C. spearheaded by a three-woman team comprised of both entrepreneurs and medical professionals, Peel Haus is determined to do its part in providing safe, diverse care to its clientele.

Beyond one’s typical medispa, Peel Haus is curating a center where premiere services are setting a new standard. Led by licensed medical aesthetician Sonya Lowery-Young, Vice President of Business Development Wendy Pittman, and board-certified Nurse Practitioner Sorelle Cooper, the medical facility strives for advancement that promotes natural results. According to Black Business, their services include Botox, hydrofacials, and body services to ensure patients can receive treatments in any facet to strengthen their confidence all-around.

Aided by two plastic surgeons to conduct surgical procedures, including breast augmentation and cosmetic fat transfers, the center is a one-stop shop for all bodily and facial enhancement needs. Peel Haus seeks to be the answer for those wanting surgical and nonsurgical options, as well as cosmetic changes that help eliminate dark spots, and fillers to rejuvenate the face in sunken or wrinkle-prone areas.

Located in the Capitol Hill Neighborhood in D.C., the surgery studio is also the home of the GlowTox, which combines therapy and a medical-grade skin care regimen that works to reveal new skin from within. Wanting to instill authentic relationships with its growing clientele, the company’s core values of excellence, inclusion, trust, and transparency are evident throughout their consultation-to-procedure process.

Through their intimate 5-person team, these pillars of their mission are realized through tailoring each service to best benefit the client and their ultimate needs and goals, while providing a safe medical facility where all are welcome and held in the highest regard. As they begin taking clients for the new year, memberships are available for routine services as the team builds their first cohort of individuals, all focused on safe and medically sound aesthetic procedures.
