SKYTALE GROUP ADVISES MD ESTHETICS, A MULTI-STATE MEDICAL AESTHETICS AND WELLNESS LEADER, IN PLATFORM INVESTMENT BY NEW HARBOR CAPITAL

DALLAS, June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Skytale Group ("Skytale"), an investment banking and management consulting firm specializing in healthcare and consumer businesses, is pleased to announce it has advised MD Esthetics, a premier medical aesthetics and wellness company with 12 locations across Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Virginia, in its platform investment from private equity firm New Harbor Capital. This transaction represents New Harbor Capital's initial investment in the medical aesthetics and wellness space and sets the foundation for building a premier national platform behind the MD Esthetics team.

Co-founders Dr. Michael Pedro and Danielle Pedro launched MD Esthetics in 2018 with a clear vision: deliver high-quality medical aesthetics and wellness services while building a strong team and a growth-minded culture. In just a few short years, they have expanded across three states, developed a provider training academy, and assembled a leadership team that knows how to scale. Their holistic, thoughtful approach to wellness has made them a standout brand in the industry and a natural choice for a platform investment.

"What the MD Esthetics team have built is incredibly impressive. It is not just a group of med spas, it is a fully integrated platform with a real vision," said Tedd Van Gorden, Director of Investment Banking at Skytale Group. "They've combined clinical rigor, a unique expansion playbook, and a deep investment in people. That kind of foundation is exactly what New Harbor was looking for, and we're thrilled to have helped bring this partnership together."

With this investment, New Harbor Capital will partner with the MD Esthetics leadership team to accelerate the company's growth strategy, support future acquisitions, and continue enhancing the infrastructure that has positioned MD Esthetics as a market leader.

"This partnership with New Harbor Capital marks a significant milestone for MD Esthetics. New Harbor's deep expertise in scaling founder-led healthcare companies will be instrumental in accelerating our growth and cementing our leadership within the medical aesthetics and wellness space," said Dr. Michael Pedro, CEO and Co-Founder of MD Esthetics. "The team at Skytale was incredible to work with. They kept us focused, guided us through every step, and made a complex process feel much more manageable. Their deep expertise in the medical spa space was invaluable — they truly understood the nuances of our business and what would resonate with the right buyers. We couldn't have done it without them."

"We are very excited to partner with Dr. Michael and Danielle Pedro, and the entire MD Esthetics team," said Ed Lhee, Partner at New Harbor Capital. "We look forward to accelerating their expansion, both organically and through future acquisitions, to solidify their position as a leader in the medical aesthetics and wellness space."
