About

I've sat at
that table.
Now I work
for you.

— Danna Hopkins

For more than fifteen years, I have built and operated aesthetic and plastic surgery businesses at both the practice and enterprise level. Today, I work directly with independent physicians who want stronger operations, better profitability, and smart growth — built around their goals and their timeline.

I have led through expansion, accreditation, staffing design, financial modeling, revenue infrastructure, and multi-site operations, including serving as COO and Head of Sales at AirSculpt Technologies (Nasdaq: AIRS) during its Nasdaq IPO and growth phase. I have sat across the table from institutional buyers, investment bankers, and private equity groups — I know exactly what they look for, what they value, and what it takes to build a practice that performs well in any context.

“She possesses the rare ability to think strategically at the highest executive level while also remaining deeply engaged in the day-to-day operational realities. She is equally adept at designing scalable systems and KPIs as she is at problem-solving in real time.”

Dr. Sarah Cazorla  ·  Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon

I founded Hopkins Aesthetic Advisors to bring that level of operational depth directly to surgeon-led practices. I keep my client roster small and work closely through assessment, planning, and implementation so the result is real change — not just advice.

“Independent physicians should not have to choose between staying independent and building a sophisticated, durable business.”

Philosophy

Deep over broad.
Results over frameworks.

Most consultants offer advice from a distance and move on. I work differently — with a small roster of clients, sustained engagement, and accountability to actual outcomes. The practices I work with get a genuine operational partner, not a methodology applied from the outside.

I keep my active client roster small so every practice gets direct, sustained engagement from me personally. Not a junior consultant, not a standardized framework, not a packaged system. This is a feature, not a limitation.

“The goal is to give your practice the operational strength, financial discipline, and strategic clarity to perform at the highest level — on your terms and your timeline, whatever that future looks like.”
