On Wednesday, February 11, 2026, nearly 100 women gathered dressed in pink and red at the stunning new Newport Coast flagship location of Richland Aesthetics for a beautifully curated Galentine’s Day celebration benefiting Miracles for Kids. The evening blended elevated aesthetics with heartfelt philanthropy, creating a meaningful night of community and connection for a good cause.

Hosted by internationally recognized plastic surgeon Brandon Richland, who is known for his signature “Mommy Makeover” expertise, alongside his wife Jessica Richland, Vice President of Richland Aesthetics, the event marked the second major gathering at the brand’s newly unveiled flagship location in Newport Beach. Jessica is also an active member of the 360° Miracle giving circle, a group of philanthropic women dedicated to supporting Miracles for Kids and its mission to provide financial assistance and wellness resources to families with critically ill children.

Guests were welcomed with a pink carpet entrance before stepping into an immersive and thoughtfully designed experience. Attendees posed for photos by a romantic floral heart installation, the beautiful custom flower wall, and in front of a branded step-and-repeat, capturing the celebratory spirit of Galentine’s Day! Champagne and caviar were served beside a spectacular heart-shaped ice sculpture, adding an elegant touch to the evening’s festivities.

Beyond the glamour, the event’s purpose remained front and center. Through opportunity raffle ticket sales, nearly $4,000 was raised to directly benefit Miracles for Kids. Guests generously donated for the chance to win sought-after Richland Aesthetic wellness prizes, including treatment packages featuring EvolveX, Morpheus8, exclusive RichlandMD offerings, and generous one-year memberships donated by Drenched OC, CAZ and Double Ops.

The atmosphere was one of empowerment and generosity, a celebration of women supporting women, while also extending that support to families in need within the local Orange County community. By opening their new flagship doors for a philanthropic gathering, the Richlands underscored their commitment to giving back and creating a space that fosters more than aesthetic transformation.

As Newport Coast continues to welcome new destinations for beauty and wellness, Richland Aesthetics has made it clear that its mission extends beyond the treatment room. The Galentine’s Day Miracles for Kids event served as a reminder that when community, compassion and celebration intersect, meaningful impact follows.
