Hello, I’m Laura Muñoz.

I'm the proud owner and passionate Esthetician behind BOTANICA SKIN. I believe that beauty and wellness is a lifelong pursuit of progress that begins within, which is why I cultivate personal relationships with each of my clients. It’s a privilege for me to get to know each unique person that walks through my door. 

BOTANICA SKIN is built on a set of foundational principles and essential elements that reflect a lifetime of learning, growth, and personal commitment for me. These values guide everything we do together from the individualized skin care and wellness plans we develop, the array of treatments, to the meaningful connection we foster. 

Beauty Interconnectivity

I believe that beauty is dependent on a harmonious balance of your inner and outer selves, that true beauty starts within, and that simple internal adjustments can cultivate positive external transformation.  My goal is to help you achieve this balance. More than just skin care or a cosmetic treatment, my services are deeply personal and intentional, customized to your unique needs and goals, and committed to the deep connection you have with your own body.

Holistic & Integrative Care

My holistic and integrative approach to beauty combines natural ingredients, intuition, and science-backed research to achieve optimal wellness and beauty. I believe this is the path to long-lasting results and a more sustainable beauty and wellness routine. This may include a focus on topicals, treatments, internal work, or a combination of them all.

Intentionality & Empathy

I care about my clients and want them to feel seen and heard. My judgment-free environment allows you to come as you are, without any societal pressures or expectations. Together, we will work on what you want to achieve in a gentle, kind, and loving way.

High-Quality Products

I am committed to using only the highest quality products. From intentional natural ingredients to clinical strength solutions, I carefully select each product to ensure that it meets my standards for effectiveness, safety, and ethical sourcing. 

I believe in the power of natural ingredients to support and enhance the skin's microbiome as well as the tried and true effectiveness of advanced formula products.

Ownership of Perspective

We have the power to shape our perspective on appearance, inner-beauty, wellness, and aging. Despite the strong influence of societal norms and standards, I empower my clients to break free from these constraints and define their own unique path toward wellness and beauty. By embracing our individuality and taking ownership of our personal journey, we can unlock our true potential to achieve a fulfilling life and authentic beauty.


I’m here to help you achieve the radiance that comes from a healthy, balanced mind and body.

“Laura takes a caring and holistic approach to skincare. I have been seeing her for more than ten years. Each time I see her she assesses my skin and tailors her treatment to exactly what I need that day.

She is a student and a teacher, always learning and excited to share new information with her clients. She is the best!”

Services & Treatments

  • Custom Facial Treatments

    Using the latest in groundbreaking techniques and high-quality, restorative products, each facial is custom-tailored to your specific needs. The holistic, integrative, conscientious approach ensures your skin type, lifestyle, health, and longevity concerns are heard, seen, and honored. Some of the offerings are exfoliation customized to your current needs, thoughtful extractions, lymphatic support through cupping and manual drainage, LED, microcurrent, retinaldehyde infusions, and lifting & sculpting massage, using both my hands and stone tools.

  • Brows & Lashes

    Enhance your natural features, achieve a more dramatic look, save time in your daily routine, boost confidence, or address concerns with polished and expert brow and lash services.

    These services are customized to each person’s desired aesthetic and include shaping, tinting, and lifting.

  • De-Fuzzing

    De-Fuzzing is a gentle and effective way to remove the top layer of dead, dry, and dehydrated skin, along with any vellus hair, commonly known as peach fuzz. Great care is taken to prepare the skin based on its current condition to ensure we support the health of your skin's barrier layer for the most optimal results. De-Fuzzing is an effective way to achieve a smoother and more even skin texture, reduce the appearance of hair, feel more confident, improve the efficacy of skincare products, and feel more refreshed and rejuvenated.

  • Microchanneling

    Microchanneling treatment, exclusively available to our established clients, is a comprehensive procedure that targets the face, neck, and décolleté to stimulate the production of new skin cells and boost collagen levels for several months following the initial session. By utilizing stainless steel microfilaments to create controlled punctures on the skin, we activate wound healing, gene expression and enhance the skin's natural rejuvenation process. Our advanced Microchanneling Delivery Serums, enriched with bone marrow-derived stem cells that promote healing and reduce inflammation, are used throughout the treatment for optimal results. This non-invasive procedure is ideal for those over 30 who are experiencing signs of aging such as scarring, pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of volume, and are seeking a more plump and youthful appearance.

  • Consultations

    The consultation service creates a space where you can feel safe and heard while discussing your unique skin care concerns, chronic or acute. Our collaborative approach ensures we develop long-term treatment plans specific to your individual goals. Whether in person or on Zoom, we provide a tailored experience, taking the time to understand your unique needs. Our in-person service offers the benefit of a physical skin examination. A comprehensive follow-up email with product recommendations and an actionable plan of our discussion is always included. This is perfect for anyone feeling overwhelmed or confused by skincare options or in need of support while navigating aging concerns or undergoing a major life change, such as pregnancy.

  • Tutorials

    This tutorial combines hand and stone massage techniques to provide various modalities for enhancing fluid movement, nutrient exchange, lifting and sculpting. Each tutorial is tailored to the individual client, beginning with a thorough discussion of concerns, goals, and expectations, and can be conducted either in person or on Zoom. During the tutorial, we focus on 1-2 tools that are best suited to the client's skin needs and goals. This service is ideal for anyone who loves taking care of their skin at home and wants to support their aging skin without relying on many devices or topical products.

“I've been going to Laura for facial services for about 6 years. From day one she took the time to learn my skin and apply treatments that work well for my sensitivity. She is warm, welcoming and informative; always answering the many questions I have about products or treatments.

Her care, attention to detail and enthusiasm to learn new things within her field are above and beyond. I always walk out of sessions with Laura feeling relaxed, joyful and good about myself. She is the best!”

“Laura completely transformed my skin. I’ve been going to her for over five years. I began because I had painful rosacea and Laura not only gave me facials that treated the rosacea, she also educated me on the best ways to take care of my skin. In addition to rosacea, I also have eczema. Laura is able to calm it and instantly make it feel and look better.

… Laura never tries to oversell you on products. She recommends cost-effective ways to take care of your skin and provides samples so you can try products before purchasing. Laura is great to talk to and creates a welcoming and calming environment. I cannot recommend Laura enough!”
