How do I play as a really aggressive Falco?

So I've been wanting to make my Falco more aggressive but I'm not sure how to do it. Normally, I feel like most good falco players I see have really good shield pressure and offensive lasering, but I don't think that's the same as really suffocating your opponent. Without a super good DD for aggressive movement like Marth, how do I play an aggressive Falco without getting punished?

Laser. Mix up lasers with dash dancing and wavedashes back and forth.
Condition them to try and powershield/shield your lasers.
Laser -> Jab or Laser -> Grab.
Empty hop towards them and grab/punish.
Pressure shields with spaced aerials and shines.

Is there a way to play a more Mango style falco without lasering as much?

mango style falco is spacing heavy and intelligent aerials, just get a good falco and you'll be a mango style falco
